clannhoran Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Did you see the crazy ex-priest that ran onto the Olympic Marathon course and tried to tackle the leading runner?Cornelius Horan. Damn, I'm proud to have this guy as a member of the clann! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shmee Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Didn't try to tackle. Succeeded. This man is an embarrassment to himself, his family, and because of his use of traditional dress to gain attention, the nation of Ireland and its descendants as a whole. I hope that he is prosecuted to the full extent of Greek and International law, and that Lima, the runner he attacked, is compensated for the distress this no doubt caused him.

Wow, thanks for the morality check. For a moment I was seriously putting this guy on a pedestal as a model of what an Irishman (and a member of Clann Horan) should strive to be. But thanks to you I now realize that my whole life is wrong, and that I've been following the wrong path of reason. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shmee Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 No problemo. By the way I knew you were being sarcastic, but every once in a while I like to sound like I know what I'm talking about.

DEAD! Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Interferring with the marathon. This is probably the only thing in the Olympics that Ireland did well. I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaolinaJoe Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 They did about as well as canada. 1 gold from a population of about 3.5 million. Canada had 3 from a population of about 31 million. So it sounds about even. "It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of thepress. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom ofspeech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given usthe freedom to demonstrate. And it is the soldier who salutes theflag, serves beneath the flag, whose coffin is draped by the flag, andwho allows the protester to burn the flag."Marine Chaplain Dennis Edward O' Brien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
