Hogger.
it's nobodies business if the Irish is Orange or Green.

I'm a third generation Washingtonian, my father a boy scout was asked to be an escort for King George when he visited the US. His father, my grandfather did not permit him to take part in that honor guard ceremony. It would disgrace the family. My grandmother's brother who I fondly remember taking me to Washington Senators games via the old DC trolley cars, came to the US after jail time as a IRA rebel. In his youth he was held as a hostage by the Black and Tans in his grade school. The Black and Tans reigned terror on the Irish citizens, holding their children hostage threatening those children with death should Irish patriots interfere with the activities of the Black n Tans.

So, if you happen to be an Orangeman, I'll find your use of Mick even more offensive.

Tom
