May the Irish hills caress you. May her lakes and rivers bless you. May the luck of the Irish enfold you. May the blessings of Saint Patrick behold you.

47 after going through a second time and using my library as a refrence. Although I should have used it more I've got an excuse for not wanting my MTV bad enough though. I was only able to watch MTV between 1987 and 1989. I was young, and wasn't about to ask my parents to help support my facination with the music at the time. They knew I listened to it, they knew I liked it, they even got me my first GNR and Joan Jett cassettes in 1988 (one of which has since been replaced by both CD and cassette due to losing the first one, the latter needs replacement, but I still have my original, that's just worn out, but still plays) I liked just about everything I heard at that time, would have been a futile effort at best to try and build a library then. That venture had to wait until 2000 when I got a job. And even then, it took three years to get to the point I couldn't think of more I wanted. My Pop Rock library still grows on occasion, but my Celtic library is about to pass it up now (if it hasn't already).
I've even gotten some of my 80s library on vinyl in the last couple years, including a 45 single of Madonna's "Vouge" purchased brand spanking new in 2000, As well as finding second hand LPs of Michael Jackson's Bad, and Heart -- Bad Animals
There's a dear little plant that grows in our Isle Twas St . Patrick himself, sure, that set it; And the sun of his labour with pleasure did smile, And with dew from his eye often wet it. It grows through the bog, through the brake, through the Mireland, and they call it the dear little shamrock of Ireland.
