  Attention noters:

  This note has been set <NOWRITE>!!!

  Don't try to engage this new fellow into vacuous banter
  about The Burren, Doolin, or Pot Holing...

  We had a guy named Burns that posted the same sort of material
  for several years, and well, he's gone now, TG.

    Kevin,
    
    Great timing on your return, eh.
    
    Actually it's good to have you back at the helm.
    Maybe now I'll get a chance to sample the finest at your cellar pub.
    Could use the time to celebrate my 3rd daughter, Fiona, now 3 months.
    
    I'm at PK3 if you even make down south here.
    
    slainte,
    Paul

  I forgot to add smilies to .1.

  :v)  :v)  :v)

  keV I'm still waiting for my Galway license plate.

    Welcome back KeVin,
    
    We've missed ya! :)

    Good God
    
    2 disasters in one week. Mr Keyes and I have been driven to the drink-)
    
    Welcome back
    MBr

    Um, Mr Burns
    
    I understand you have some connection with County Clare. I'm sorry, but
    I have to ask you this question. You see there is a game played over
    here, they call it Hurling, and last year there was a big game between
    Offaly and Clare. Now Offaly lead the game for 65 minutes, the sides
    were level for three minutes, and for two unfortunate minutes during
    which the final whistle was blown, Clare were in front. This came about
    after a long ball fron a certain A. Daly hit the upright and allowed a
    soft Clare goal. My question is, what were you doing when this fluke
    happened?
    
    I think we should be told. All sorts of rumours were circulating at the
    time. I'm sure the main reason you are back at Digital is to set the
    record straight.
    
    Regards,
    
    Kevin  

    
    Oh lord help us...-) -)
    
    ..Ah don't you love the pain of those offaly folk..yes those 2 minutes.
    sheer unadulterated bliss!! -)
    
    Kev..I hear your over to put another record to-gehter..Are you staying
    in Clkare..or creeping dangerously in to the tribes country...I scent a 
    session..maybe you should stay on the plane and head up to
    civilisation?
    
    slainte and welcome back!
    

Welcome back keVin - did you bring your hurley?  There are a 
lot of BIFFOs around here needing a hiding ;-).

Limerick for '96!

                        James.

    Easy Lads !!!
    
    Arriving in Shannon on Feb 22nd, then the REAL FUN begins.

     Jaysus, the last few notes in 1388. were priceless !!!

    Driving up through Clare the last two mornings, there is something
    strange going on. Sheep stand with their backs to the wind, lambs bleat
    helplessly. The hills are covered in snow and cattle stand up to their
    knees in mud around the feeders waiting for Godot. The IFA has had
    calls from farmers in the Ballyvaughan area complaining they are not
    able to get the plastic off the round bales, and a TD has called for
    action.
    
    What has happened? What is the mysterious cause of all this? Are the
    hens still laying eggs? Which is the star that shines so balefully in
    the western sky, what dreadful omen is this?   
           

    >What has happened? What is the mysterious cause of all this? Are the

    probably keVin Burns just "arrived" in Ballyvaughan.
    Sound the alarm. May God help all of ye.  ;v) ;v) ;v)

I noticed the same things myself ..  :-)

    there has been a big improvement. The county is now bathed in a gentle
    breeze of cool pleasant air from the sea. In the evenings, pretty girls
    with long dark hair stroll along the banks of the River Fergus and over
    the weekend fine men are out digging gardens. The crows have flown off
    towards Limerick. Why is this? 

F*%k off crows - we have enough of our own without having them
imported in from Clare against our will! 

I was listening to the radio on Sunday night and they had radio
commentary on the '73 Munster and All-Ireland hurling finals.  It
nearly brought tears to my eyes when Richie Bennis drove over that 70
with the last puck of the ball to send Tipperary into the wilderness
for 14 years.  It was just retribution for what Babs did to us in '71
- the dry ball incident! 

A great pity that I was too young to remember either event :-(.

"Limerick for 96" - remember you heard it here first!

Are all the Burns in the marathon related to you, keV?

James: Entry # 10535 is infact myself. 

Digital has an "Official" site as www.bostonmarathon.org

26.2 mile = Hell & Back !!!   :-)

Congratulations to KeVin Burns.
He made the whole 26.2 miles and didn't stop
for a pint once.

Julie

    Hey congratulations keVin! Good job.
    
    I saw him running with a pack of Kenyans,
    talking with that Moses Tanui guy.
    
    What did he eat before the race? And was
    he wearing Clare colors???
    
    George

I started the day with a good greasy Irish breakfast
followed by a few pints of Guinness to help digestion.  

:-)

Ran wearing an "Irish Runner" singlet, and met many
other Irish Runners along the way ...

McGanns' on Portland Street will be the place to be
on Friday night, when Eammon Coghlin, Neil Cusack, and 
other members of the Irish Team will be having a pint 
or two before returning to Ireland.

    There is a strong rumour floating around that HE is back AGAIN. Lock up
    your Guinness and head for the hills
    
    Maybe we need to get Cromwell to deal with this pest -)
    
    MBR

    This is probably a result of the disasterous hurling result in Ennis.
    Why was he let out. I thought the Bail Act had been reformed to prevent
    this kind of thing?

#14023 has returned !!!!

Be nice now , cause I know where most of ye live ...

    Is there any truth in the rumour that said Burns is taking part in the 
    Boston Marathon.
    
    
    'Twill be a bloody miracle if he gets to 10 miles.
    
    Next thing he will be trying to walk across the water to Ballyvaughan.
    Or turn BUD into Guinness.
    
    MBr  

    maybe he starts and finishs...no word of what happens in between
    
    

The only exercise ye two get is walkin' over to Hanlons'  :=)

The 100th Boston Marathon was good enough for me, and next
years Dublin Marathon is very much in my plans ...

PS: Joe Farrell has offered to be my Irish Running Coach   :-)

    I don't know which is more implausible...You getting around the Dublin
    Marathon course or Joe training you. The 2 combined is not feasible
    Too many pit stops along the way...little distractions.
    
    ..but of course you could rely on us to give you lots of ..help
    
     
    
    
     
    

    Is that as a spectator or a participant
    
    Inquiring minds want to know.
    
    Is the training being done in the Pheonix Park. Emmett Stagg wants to
    know.
    
    MBr

    >>  Too many pit stops along the way...little distractions.
    
    Well if pit stops are allowed, I guess I'll enter meself, 26 miles is
    about right for a Dublin pub crawl. Which highlights are on the way ?

    Paddy Culbert will be joining keVin on the next marathon in Dublin.
    
    keVin, did you ever make it to Danvers? Kasey said you
    left a message. I never saw you - you probably look different
    now that you're doing these marathons.
    
    Anyone see "Lord of the Pants" yet?

    
    Careful there George Andrew Darcy ... I DO know where YOU live !!  :=)
