Message: jews & Clinton JEWS?ARABS?AND US I’m sick of what is and has been going on in the middle east. We started it by turning a blind eye to what the British/French colonialists did in the early part of the last century where they carved up the middle east under the infamous Balfour declaration. To young to remember that . Perhaps you have seen Lawrence of Arabia. This film , for Hollywood is reasonably accurate and shows the underhandedness of the British and the French. They wanted to control the riches of the middle east and the way they saw of doing that was to create artificial countries and maintain their control. The French wanted and got Lebanon, The British wanted and got what is now Israel etc..

Message: Be the holy good God, Liam Tymon finanly logs in and only greets that townie Roddy Gillen. Giving their age away by that. I remember Roddy selling Lucan ice cream, and his brother Gavan with the chemistry set he got for Christmas '54! Anyway, that's not what I'm on about. Today Saturday from 12 - 3 there will be cheap lamb chops, legs of mutton and other sheep parts for sale. I'm going to slaughter the lot!!!!!! The constant baaaaaaing of these motherless sods has got to me at last.

Message: I'm soaked. Why could you not have included a jolly old brolly in the design. And to add insult to injury every dog of Sligo has his day here as they pass by. When this was happening to the names of the members of the borough council on the plaque on Hughes Bridge it was raised in the council chamber. Can the standing or sitting memebr for this ward take it up please. I would be grateful.

Message: Well I never laughed as much as I did this Saturday. The sheep were so scared after hearing of the lamb chop and mutton sale they actually emptied themselves and are now s#%@less to say the least. They hired a boat and went out on the bay for a day - to hide. They looked so sheepish coming back soaked after dark. haaaaaaaaaa haaaaaaa haaaaaaa

Message: The page seems to have gone kind of dead recently, perhaps there all in the chat room. That ould mangey dog got an awful boollicking from the RP manger dwellers. Still there's no better poetic justice for such a liteary spot than the begrudgers begrudging the begrudgers! That poor mutt sure got his dose of flatulence (N. an emergency vehicle that picks you up, when you've been run over by a steamroller), Is mise le meas, Cu` na h'Eireann
