Greetings and blessings to all,
Hello from the water-logged Ohio Valley. After last week's shoveling marathon, all rain and no snow makes Russ a very happy boy! However, the amount of precipitation both here and around the country isn't good news for a lot of people - and probably a good many of our readers. We surely hope you and your loved ones are safe and that the weather isn't causing you too much trouble.
We also hope this week's edition finds you in good health, good spirits and good company and we're happy to welcome quite a few new subscribers. If you enjoy our musings, please feel free to pass them along to your family and friends.
Were your New Year's revels were as much fun as ours? Just four of us got together for a cut-throat Euchre game until we toasted the year in at midnight. For the past few years, we've made New Year's Eve a slumber party, i.e. you have to stay over. So, after we watched the ball descend, sang a bit of Auld Lang Syne and drank some more bubbly, we toddled off to bed. Evidence of how lively we were was when we viewed the living room next morning - four poppers and debris from same, plus a few glittery bits Bridget had put up to augment the Christmas decorations.
There was enough champagne left over to have Mimosas with our traditional New Year's Day brunch - a big fry-up and we have to say it was one of the most pleasant New year's we've ever enjoyed. No hangovers and no major mess. The rest of the week had us busily shopping for our gift exchange on Epiphany. We each pull a name so we're only buying for one person and we can hit the sales. However, we were a bit thwarted by work schedules since the 6th fell on Thursday. So, we're doing it on Sunday. The kids really look forward to this occasion, not because of the presents but because we make a Shepherd's Pie with the left over prime rib roast. The difference between being a kid and a grown-up.
As usual, we turned the candles off in each window and formally ended the Christmas season. It's always a bit sad when we do that - but we're sure that our local utility company has been very happy about our month-long personal festival of lights! Which brings us to an always bit of a sticky subject. It takes a good deal of time, effort and out of pocket to keep the newsletter and web site going. Once a year we make a request for your financial help - so here it is; if you can't contribute, don't fret - you'll still get your newsletter and we'll still maintain the web site. But if you can help us out it would be greatly appreciated. Over Christmas, we were delighted to receive a couple of donations and it really does our heart good to know that our musings and meanderings mean something to you. Enough of the begging - and enough about us!

A reader from Israel is learning Irish and would like to find someone with whom to practice - either a pen-pal or someone living in Israel. Please contact us if you're interested Thanks.
Travis writes: I am making plans to propose to my girlfriend who comes from a traditional Irish Catholic Family. I was curious if there are any Irish customs for the guy when he is asking the father for his blessing. Is it custom to present a certain gift? Any information you can provide me will be so valuable. Thank you.
NOTE: We wrote back to Travis that in the old days, a young man would take a friend with him to the father's house. The friend would boast of the young man's character while plying the father with whiskey to "soften him up." Other than that, we don't know of any traditional gifts. Your input would be appreciated - thanks!
Peter writes: I have 5 sons and the number of grandchildren seems to be growing. and I start a bank account for each one as they arrive. In the past I had some of the old Irish money available, but no longer. Do you know where I can get some of the pre-decimal coin or bills either here or back home?

OUR FAVORITE JOKE OF THE WEEK
This is adapted from one sent in by "Morgana" in England. Thanks!
A garda pulls over a speeding car. He says, "I clocked you at 80 miles per hour, sir." The driver says, "Are you sure? I had it on cruise control at 60, perhaps your radar gun needs calibrating." Not looking up from her knitting the wife says: "Now don't be silly dear, you know that this car doesn't have cruise control." As the garda writes out the ticket, the driver looks over at his wife and growls, "Can't you please keep your mouth shut for once?" The wife smiles demurely and says, "You should be thankful your radar detector went off when it did." As the garda makes out the second ticket for the illegal use of a radar detector unit*, the man glowers at his wife and says through clenched teeth, "Woman ,didn't I tell you to keep your mouth shut!" The garda frowns and says, "And I notice that you're not wearing your seat belt, sir. That's an on the spot 60 euro fine. "The driver says, "Well, you see sir, I had it on, but took it off when you pulled me over so that I could get my license out of my back pocket." The wife says, "Now, dear, you know very well that you didn't have your seat belt on. You never wear your seat belt when you're driving." And as the garda is writing out the third ticket the driver turns to his wife and barks, "WHY DON'T YOU PLEASE SHUT UP??" The garda looks over at the woman and asks, "Does your husband always talk to you this way, Ma'am?" Smiling sweetly, she replies. Only when he's been drinking, sir."
*While it is legal to own a radar detector in the Republic of Ireland, it is actually illegal to use it.

A. They were two of triplets! What a brilliant group we are! We had a slew of answers but the first one in with the correct solution was Marilyn from Binghampton, New York. Congratulations! And now for this week's brain drain:
