I'm not surprised. I'm only one quarter irish, but my irish relatives are always nagging me to date "a nice irish girl." One time, I took a nice-looking blonde that I was dating to an blue-collar irish pub, and some people actually glared at her, apparently because she was clearly not irish.

No, that was my Hoosier buddies who were glaring at my Cockney Cockknockers tee, at GenCon in '02. Which was cool, because then I didn't have to share my bed with anybody.

Smufit has been linked with all sorts of trouble back home in Ireland. His money has been splashed around to ease a lot of palms, especially claims of bribary to the then Irish Taoiseach, Charles Haughey (http://archives.tcm.ie/irishexaminer/2000/07/26/current/ipage_2.htm) .

Anything that his money has touched should be looked at carefully.

1/2 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
1 cup whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
2/3 cup Guinness stout
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons molasses
4 egg yolks
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1. In a medium saucepan, scrape in the vanilla bean seeds. Add the pod, milk, and cream. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Turn off the heat, cover the pan, and let the flavors infuse for 30 minutes.

2. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, whisk together the stout and molasses. Bring to a boil and turn off heat.

3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the yolks, sugar, and vanilla extract. Whisk in a few tablespoons of the hot cream mixture, then slowly whisk in another 1/4 cup of the cream. Add the remaining cream in a steady stream, whisking constantly. Pour the mixture back into the saucepan.

4. Stir the beer mixture into the cream mixture. Cook the custard over medium heat, stirring often with a wooden spoon, for 6 to 8 minutes or until the custard thickens enough to coat the back of the spoon.

5. Strain the mixture into a bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. Process the custard in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.

LOL I actually tried to find some other celebrity love triangles for ya. My family are pretty darn proud of being Irish. My grandma was 100% Irish and she had beautiful red hair. It wasn't that orangy color you see most red heads with. She didn't have freckles either but she did have pale skin. My grandpa however was 50/50 German and Cherokee Indian. My dad was 50/50 Irish and German so I reckon that makes me about 50% Irish, 37.5% German and 12.5% Cherokee.

One thing I've found weird since I moved to Arkansas is that every girl you meet who's family comes from here has exactly the same facial features.

I honestly believe alcoholism are a waste of my time.
My family came from Ireland to NZ in the 19th century.
I do know about binge drinking in Ireland.
I think it's a pity the fighting and drinking is going on without any control and moralness whatsoever.

I think Ireland needs to straighten this up.
I wasn't serious about the Guinness angle in the first place.

What's great is while the per capita costs of alcohol abuse are half that of Ireland's, the amount spent on alcohol is one-sixth. Go America! We're way better at destroying shit and ruining lives than anyone else!

[YoursTruly]

The United States also has 80 times the people


Population of Ireland 4,015,676 at $3billion in alchol abuse

Population of US 295,734,134 at $124billion in alchohol abuse

I still say the problem in the US is higher or even.

If you divide the number of people by the amount of cost you get...

$2,384,952 in America and only $1,338,558 in Ireland.
