Well fellas, BEFORE this whole thread turns into a "royal" bloodbath here...I HEARD it had somethin' to do with him being one the key arbiters in FINALLY gettin' those TWO friggin' RELIGIONS to STOP their FRIGGIN' FIGHTIN'(aka: "The Troubles") over on the northern end of what is known as "The Emerald Isle"!!!

(AND, of course, they probably ALSO figured that IF they were going to "Knight" the poor sap, they better do it before he kicks the friggin' bucket, which looks like THAT'S comin' reeeeeeal soon!!!)


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
