April Fools Day

Perhaps you won’t be surprised to know that Angela and I went on our first date exactly 5 years ago tonight. We’re both just a couple of fools!

I definitely didn’t foresee what was to come over the next 5 years, but then again it just goes to show you how much life goes on and things change quickly and things sometimes take us by surprise. It’s a real rollercoaster, life, and you wouldn’t want to miss out on the ride!

On another note, I’ve been considering starting up an email list for this site. I’ve noticed that the forums really haven’t taken off the way I had hoped, so I was thinking about an email list, where every post to this blog would get mailed out to the list, and all of the subscribers could discuss those posts, or anything else they wanted to discuss. What do you think? Would you subscribe?

    As if to add an exclamation point to last week’s mention of living every day, I picked up the last Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros CD this weekend. The very last song on it is a song named Silver and Gold. It’s a reworking of an old country tune by Bobby Charles called Before I…

  • Irish need not apply

    I saw a replica sign that said “Irish Need Not Apply” at the Irish festival, and had some thoughts about that. I was reminded of those thoughts when I was listening to the Donegal X-Press CD I picked up over the weekend this morning. There’s a song on there called The Work Shanty that is…

  1. Its always a bit hard to get something like this off the ground – especially since there are so many other resources out there.

    This is why I shelved mine – and decided it was more for therapy for myself then for anyone else.

    I wish you luck.
