522.0. "Witty Gaelic One-Liners" by CHET::SULLIVAN () Wed Mar 08 1989 08:28

    I have been assigned the task of finding some witty Gaelic one-liners
    for St. Patty's Day. Can anyone help?
    I'd appreciate it if the English translation can be given, also.
    
    Thanks,
    Ken

    Leaprechauns are not positive if you want this type of stuff.

    It means there is no sick asshole like your own sick asshole.
    (hey you know, this is very true).
    
    It is a vicious play on a much more respectable Gaelic one-liner
    that means there is no fireside like your own fireside  (N�l aon
    tinnt�in n� do thinnt�in f�in).    
    
    Snake gives you the very best.
