Is there an Italian corner for those who just give up?

I'm 3/8 Irish and I'm used to taking it here so I thought I could dish out a little. :icon_wink:
Pat- 2007 DL650A was ridden to all 48 contiguous states. 2012 DL650A outlasted me.
Nicknames I use to lessen typing, Vee = 2002-2012 (K2-L2) DL1000s. Veek=2014+ (L4+) DL1000s. Wee = 2004-2011 (K4-L1) DL650s. Glee = 2012+ (L2+) DL650s

Hopefully it goes back a few generations.

If not the milkman did it.

3 of my 8 great grandparents were of Irish descent. 4 were of German descent. I never did find out about the remaining one for sure.

I was under the impression that all Yanks think they are somehow Irish anyway?  :whistle:

If you can remember it clearly, you aren't Irish.

That said, I was in Ulster back in March. Every breakfast was huge and fried and contained some sort of pancake with a rude sounding name. Still not sure if the phrase "Will you be wanting fadge with that" is some sort of tourist **** take.

In metric that would be 3/8ths European.
