Aren't Ulster Loyalists also Irish?

Of course they are.  :bowler:

But they wouldn't be caught dead celebrating St. Patrick's Day.  I actually asked my 'Irish' Grandmother one day about exactly how much Irish was in the family, since St. Patrick's day was coming up.  She politely answered me, but said that none of my 'Irish' ancestors would ever celebrate such a Catholic holiday.

[And don't go thinking she is prejudiced against Catholics - hell her daughter married a Ukrainian.  But she had also commented that wasn't comething you'd see happen when she ws young either.]

Nah.

Because that is literally what the Irish flag is supposed to represent: the unity and fellowship of the Green and Orange parties.

If you do get that shirt BB be sure to have a guy playing 'Lillibullero' on a fife following you around.

You remind me of Lettow.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

What a hurtful thing to say. :cry:

Hey - I love St. Patty's Day, and the Irish in general (even though they're going to Hell for following the Red Devil in Rome).

But I'm just celebrating my own heritage.  :)
