It’s TGIF ladies and gentlemen,

It’s also my last day at my current job.
Between the new job, surviving the deadly storms of last night, and just maybe a little something new to blog about, inspired by several storm-chasers and other NOAA Spotters I have networked with via Twitter, this is a good thing. A New dawn so to speak.

Lets celebrate shall we?

Change, when it comes, cracks everything open.

Hesiod

Yes friends it is that time of day once again

1 more week until I start my new digs. Will the TGIF Edition fade away? Possibly not. So until then lets get the party started early!

Humans are the only animals that have children on purpose with the exception of guppies, who like to eat theirs.

And what the hell
Lets do something really goofy and toe tapping for the day, what say you?

For the Tartans out there today

A sympathetic Scot summed it all up very neatly in the remark, “You should make a point of trying every experience once, excepting incest and folk dancing.”

Seeing ourselves as others see us would probably confirm our worst suspicions about them.

To do anything in this world worth doing, we must not stand back shivering and thinking of the cold and danger, but jump in, and scramble through as well as we can.

While everyone else is choosing shenanigans we’re going to stay on topic here. It’s Friday by God and I need some good motivation.

New Job, new stuff at home. March was a red letter month for me, so I want to sound off with something good for the day

Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

And since I’m getting back on the crazy train how about something catchy that sort of sums up how I feel about things

Ya’ll be good!

“The immigrant’s heart marches to the beat of two quite different drums, one from the old homeland and the other from the new. The immigrant has to bridge these two worlds, living comfortably in the new and bringing the best of his or her ancient identity and heritage to bear on life in an adopted homeland.”

How about a catchy tune this morning from The Irish Rovers? The Drunken Sailor

The Irish don’t know what they want and are prepared to fight to the death to get it

Ok Folks it’s Friday!

I’ve been an absolute bum on giving you good material this week, so I am going to try to make up for it with one helluva TGIF Quote edition

Lets start with who I consider the absolute foremost Dramatist of Ireland fair shores. If you have never read his work: you should!

Critics are like eunuchs in a harem; they know how it’s done, they’ve seen it done every day, but they’re unable to do it themselves.

Brendan Behan

It’s not that the Irish are cynical. It’s rather that they have a wonderful lack of respect for everything and everybody.

Brendan Behan

For music, lets go with Na Casaidigh (The Cassidy’s) with a old song called The Rising of the Moon

And of course eye candy for all!
