O' Flashorn .

Hey O'Flashorn, :D Irish, Scot, I think they both Gaelic, if I remember correctly. Lot of Scot and Irish heritage up there in Canada as I recall. I spent all my time in the maritime provinces ( Halifax, Nova Scotia and St. Johns, Newfoundland ). Did visit some island off of Newfoundland, St. Pierre Miquelon ( French ). Not much to see there as it was a fishing town and little else. Nice gif. O'coastie !http://forums.pcworld.com/legacyimages/

At one time my father told me there were only two kinds of people in the world. Those that were Irish and those that wished they were.

HAPPY SAINT PATRICK'S DAY to everyone.

Hey mjd, My Grandmother on my Mother's side was Irish (Perkins ) and my Grandmother on my Father's side was Cherokee Indian. I've heard that statement before. :D

I know I'm a little late to the party, but I wanted to wish everyone a
h3. HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!


Hmmm... the Upload Image doesn't want to work for me today.... I wonder what's going on? :0 :p

(maybe too much green beer?) :p

Hey Adama, As the old saying goes, better late than never. Lets see if that thing works. !http://forums.pcworld.com/legacyimages/
1! Yup, sure does. I don't know why it doesn't work on your end. coastie

[Adama]

o_0 Coastie, it worked for you??!!

Let me try it again. Ok, here goes...

Nope. I get inside the Upload Images page, but when I click on it it is dead, dead, dead. Deader than a doornail.

Did Java get updated again? Or Adobe get updated again?

[Adama]

AAARRRGHHHH My Internet crashed twice while I was trying to get back to this thread. grrrr X-(

I'm gonna have to get off this thing and disconnect my laptop for a few minutes, see if that works.

I might be back later. C ya, Coastie!

Hey Adama, At present I have Adode reader 9.0. There was an update for 9.1, but for some reason I never could get it to complte due to not enough access to my registry. There was also an update to Java 6 which was update 12, which I have. coastie

Hey O'Coastie, not all the Irish lads had o' in front of their name. My father now was half Irish on his fathers side, hence the spelling of Green without the "e", if it is spelled with an "e" on the end, it's a Brit (or so I've been told).

[coastie65]

Hey rg, Yeah, I know. :D Some such as McSweeney could be mistaken for being Scot as well. Speaking of which, Brown is Scottish, but then Browne is Irish. I dated a girl in New York who's last name was Cassidy and kept wanting to say she Irish, but in fact, she was from Glasgow Scotland. You can really get tangled up in that stuff. :D

[rgreen4]

She could be Irish but also from Glasgow, if her Irish parents moved to Scotland. After all how do you get a Scot named Dario Franchitti? When he was running NASCAR he had a small Scottish flag painted above his door.

[Adama]

Hi Coastie!

I've been trying to get in back to this thread for quite a while now. Earlier today, my Internet crashed twice, and just now, trying to get back in here it crashed 3 times!!! :( ?:|

I have no idea what the freek is going on.

I have to go now. See ya later, my friend.

Hehe hi Adama. Sorry to hear your computers not working well =(

Rgreen; AS was related to me by my great grandfather when I was only five, When they immigrated to Canada from Ireland, they dropped the O apostrophe before their names to show the change they were making by immigrating to "the new world". Now not all have done this and it was a choice that was made by those who wished to seperate their previous hertitage from the new life they wished to begin. In most cases, the change was made at the time they registered for immigratation. Our family name came from a very old and honorable one, but the O' became part of their past lives and was not used to elevate their staus in any way.

[coastie65]

That was an interesting bit of trivia. I hadn't heard that before.
