    You're 30% Irish

    You're probably less Irish than you think you are...
    But you're still more Irish than most.

    Well I am sad! I love the Irish! Or maybe I guess I love my idea of the Irish. I can't wait to go. Gotta get my husband on board with that one

    You're very Irish, and most likely from Ireland.

    How Irish Are You?

    Must be because i grew up among Irish in New York. They say there are more Irish in New York than in Dublin.
    No Virgil you are wrong. There are more Irish in New York that in the whole of Ireland! There is only 4million of us after all!

    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...

    I'm glad you saw my comment. I thought you might get a kick out of it. I wonder if you saw my comment on you being so British in that other thread.

    Charms strike the sight, but merit wins the soul.

    I am NEVER going to know how Irish I am! This just isn't working for me. So, I typed in the address and that worked, but now I can't get my results.

    I'm weary with right-angles, abbreviated daylight,
    Waiting for a winter to be done.
    Why do I still see you in every mirrored window,
    In all that I could never overcome?

    Thank the Lord for that!

    The 10% was because I don't mind boiled food, and I think I can sing.

    .
    Voices mysterious far and near,
    Sound of the wind and sound of the sea,
    Are calling and whispering in my ear,
    Whifflingpin! Why stayest thou here?
