Stop crying.
I want one in DC, on the Mall, real big, and bright Kelly green. With a great bar.
Why? Because there's a black museum there?
No. Because there's no Irish museum there.![]()
Sure. OK. Seems like they have been raising money for one that was supposed to be built 4 years ago..
I was just kidding. While I have Irish genes, I'm strictly American, eighth generation. I don't care if they put a museum there or not.
Fair enough. Besides it would be nice to have an Irish museum in DC.
