There was much ado in South Dublin's Clondalkin.

Apparently a stomach and entrails were discovered in a bin and everyone had their shit in a knot (ha) over whether or not the remains were human -- it turns out they weren't, they belonged to a dearly-departed sheep, but given the Republic's devotion to the glorious Kathleen Ni Houlihan and the Catholic church, its no wonder they've lost the ability to tell the difference between citizens and sheep.

This would have never happened in Scotland, wasting sheep innards like that.

I hesitate - tremble, indeed - to ask what on earth they'd have done with them in Scotland.

Oh, no. Surely not.

That is a decidedly insufficient quantity of wine.

They're eating a sheep stomach -- you can't expect them to be generous.

I think I can expect them to offer something better to wash it down with. Mon dieu. And I thought brains were fucking awful.

I just can't understand why anyone would want to eat the stomach of a sheep. Really -- is it just about dominance? Is it some message being sent to other sheep? This is what happens to those who seek to rebel...

I'd say it's the sheep's last revenge, rather. You shear the hell out of a thing for its entire life, eat its godawful mutton, do I don't even know what with the rest of it - you ought to have to eat the leftovers, I guess. It's only fair. Let the poor thing haunt you for the night.

Thank Kathleen it ended up as sheep entrails and not that of a Nationalist from Belfast.

They don't usually export those entrails.

There've been bomb threats. Ones found in the parking lots of Catholic churches and that.

What is your feelings on bombs in parking lots, good Mr. Dedalus?

I think it's all a bloody waste of time. All of it. I'm no Unionist. The Ireland I knew and loved was firmly under a British heel and decidedly decades before the "free" state -- but there is no call for any of his madness. A flag means nothing.

Sounds like a posh Dublin thing to me. We wouldn't waste that stuff in West Cork.

...True enough.

But you also live in Dublin, so it's an even trade.
