RECIPE FOR AN IRISH EXPERIENCE


















Recipe for an Irish Experience:


2 dumb Americans

Lots of warm, friendly Irish People

Several sight-seeing tours, sprinkled with a few dozen Castles

The narrowest roads you can find

More rain than you need

A dose of homesickness

Skype

Instant Messenger

Several thousand Frequent Flyer miles

A tenative, 2 year assignment

Green for garnish


Take 2 dumb Americans and put them right into the heart of the Republic of Ireland. Mix them well with lots of warm, friendly Irish people, even though they can’t understand a word they are saying. Drive them on the “wrong side” down narrow roads with one-way “humpy bridges” on several sight-seeing tours. Be sure to sprinkle in the few dozen Castles, until seeing castles on the side of the road becomes routine. Do all of this in the wind, rain and freezing cold. Toss in a dose of homesickness and cure it with Skype, Instant Messaging and lots of frequent flyer miles. Be sure to take out of the oven before the 2 year assignment is up. Garnish with so much green you’ll have to wear sunglasses. Smile as you ingest, because it will be one of the greatest experiences of your life!
