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.
I too have been victimized already, the afore mentioned warning coming just days late. The so-called "pollsters" told me they were with a group advocating alternative sources of energy, i.e. biological fuels derived from human cellulite. When I asked to see their credentials, they simply closed their folders, sheathed their digital cameras, and thanked me for being such a "huge" help. Oh God, the shame.

The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error. ~John Stuart Mill, On Liberty, 1859
Education: that which reveals to the wise, and conceals from the stupid, the vast limits of their knowledge. ~Mark Twain
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.
Thanks to the volenteers like Maisky, our survey has brought us to a most excellent conclusion.
People who listen to celtic music like to get naked.
Thank you for participating. You'll be able to buy the campaign photo journal at your local Wall-Mart stores.
...and Mike, if you think you feel violated now, wait until our NEXT survey.

"I am a Canadian by birth, but I am a Highlander by blood and feel under an obligation to do all I can for the sake of the Highlanders and their literature.... I have never yet spoken a word of English to any of my children. They can speak as much English as they like to others, but when they talk to me they have to talk in Gaelic."
-Alexander Maclean Sinclair of Goshen (protector of Gaelic Culture)
I think that the people doing the survey in my neighborhood were a bit confused. They came to the door and asked if they could strip... I of course let them. Afterall, they were built like Vin Desiel!

Hey, that WAS Vin. I knew he wasn't catching on durring the seminar. That also explains why he had four rolls of film with fully clothed drooling women and the backs of men as they ran away.
