*Talmann thinks it is about time we sang yet another Irish drinking song*  :-P

How 'bout another round for any singer... on me!
Music is the key to the heart.

"Once art to me was something far off, unfathomable and unreachable... But I discovered that the real essence of art was not something high up and far off, it was right inside my ordinary daily self. If a musician wants to be a fine artist, he must first become a finer person. A work of art is the expression of a person's whole personality, sensibility, and ability." -Shinichi Suzuki

Gather 'round, ye lads and lasses, set ya for a while,
And harken to me mournful tale about the Emerald Isle.
Let's all raise our glasses high to friends and fam'ly gone,
And lift our voices in another Irish drinking song!

Consumption took me mother and me father got the pox.
Me brother drank the whiskey till he wound up in a box.
Me other brother, in the troubles, met with his demise.
Me sister has forever closed her smiling Irish eyes.

Now everybody's died, and until our tears are dried,
We'll drink an' drink an' drink an' drink an' then we'll drink some more.
We'll dance an' sing an' fight until the early mornin' light,
Then we'll throw up, pass out, wake up, and then go drinkin' once again!  :drunks:

I walk in, order a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster, take a swig, and immediately collapse.
"I believe every single person is extraordinary. The tragedy is that we
have a society where too many people never get to fulfill that
extraordinary potential. My view – the liberal view – is that
government’s job is to help them to do it. Not to tell people how to
live their lives. But to make their choices possible, to release their
potential, no matter who they are. The way to do that is to take power away from those who hoard it. To challenge vested interests. To break down privilege. To clear out the bottlenecks in our society that block opportunity and block progress. And so give everyone a chance to live the life they want." - Nick Clegg, Leader of the Liberal Democrats and Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom

Now if ye spy a bonny lass, don't just grab her rump!
Buy 'er a drink, then she'll think ye are a gen'rous chump
Take ye off to town, she will, to buy 'er gowns 'n rings
But once ye're done with all o' that, it's on to raunchy things!

Now everybody's died, and until our tears are dried,
We'll drink an' drink an' drink an' drink an' then we'll drink some more.
We'll dance an' sing an' fight until the early mornin' light,
Then we'll throw up, pass out, wake up, and then go drinkin' once again!

 :clap: It's about time, lass!

All ya men, there are a few things that ya ought to know,
What women say will whip ya so they  :whip: and off ya go.
So some advice I offer ya' before ya go get hitched,
Is the gal a goodly one or is she a big b*tch?

Now everybody's died, and until our tears are dried,
We'll drink an' drink an' drink an' drink an' then we'll drink some more.
We'll dance an' sing an' fight until the early mornin' light,

"I think you'll find they carry just about anything you could want, dearie."

*Launches into song (again)

"If a man comes up to you, my fickle female friend
Make sure he buys you lovely drinks, and more things in the end:
A cat, a hat, an automobile, and always alcohol
'Cus if he does he's one of the ones who's in for the long haul!

In that case I'll take a small shot of Hak'len.  I wouldn't recommend anyone else touches the stuff though.  Without working up an immunity to it, it might easily kill you.  One sip, bartender!

The truth is, no one really knows anymore.  It's main ingredients is Kresh, but the art of Hak'len brewing is basically lost.  I wouldn't expect that many others here could handle more than a sip of this.  Caldarians are the only ones who can take more than a swig.  How about you, what's your poison?
