"We sing the songs our fathers sang when they were growing up, rebel songs of Erin's Isle in the South Side Irish pubs, and when it comes to baseball -- we have two favorite clubs, the go-go White Sox . . . and whoever plays the Cubs. "We're the South Side Irish as our fathers were before, we come from the Windy City and we're Irish to the core, from Bridgeport to Beverly from Midway to South Shore, we're the South Side Irish -- let's sing it out once more."

<div align="left">Some Guinness was spilled on the barroom floor when the pub was shut for the night. Out of his hole crept a wee brown mouse and stood in the pale moonlight. He lapped up the frothy brew from the floor, then back on his haunches he sat. And all night long you could hear him roar, 'Bring on the goddam cat!'</div>

I'm just glad to hear about another get together since I missed the christmas party. I'm looking forward to hopefully going to this one and meet and greet everybody. Being that it's on April fools day, this is not an elaborate april fools joke is it?? just checking???  because I'm making plans to go up there for the party.  I do love New york but I would hate to take a trip up there in vain.
