It's ok, we can't all have the class of the Irish, especially those on that Lesser Island. >> Irish,Brits,and Scots.all the same race.right?I know the above post was a joke.but I always find it funny like in how in The Sun Also Rises on how a character says"I hope you're not British?Can't stand them.I'm a Scotch myself."
