Richard, the devil does not know my dead. All my ancestors were righteous Christians. Now, the Bonine family, well . . . . .

An Irish blessing for you.
May you find warmth on a sunny day,
And when you are lost, light to find your way.
When there is love may you take a chance,
And never find a frog in your underpants.

Hope you all had a great day.
