Pog ma thon…
Happy St. Patty’s day (Or Evacuation Day for those in Boston), now go out and have a Car Bomb in celebration tonight.
Carbomb:
½ Pint of Guinness in a pint glass.
1 shot of Bushmills (‘cause, you know, it’s from the north…) White label.
UPDATE: I have been told there are version that are a mix of Bushmills and Bailey's irish cream, or just a shot of Bailey's.
Drop shot into pint glass and swallow in one swell foop.
“Believe that we too love freedom and desire it. To us it is more desirable than anything in the world. If you strike us down now, we shall rise again and renew the fight. You cannot conquer Ireland you cannot extinguish the Irish passion for freedom: if our deed has not been sufficient to win freedom then our children will win it with a better deed.”
Pádraig Pearse

“Just as it is true that a stream cannot rise above its source, so it is true that a national literature cannot rise above the moral level of the social conditions of the people from whom it derives its inspiration.”
