Is this no a little cliché? I don't see the Americans queuing up to have "National Dumb Blonde Day" or a "Stoopid-Ass Redneck/Hick" Jamboree".So why do the Irish do this?

Jay Leno said his mom came from Scotland (one of 13 children whose mother deserted the family...brings to mind the Irish-American country song "You picked a Fine time to Leave Me, Lucille, with 4 Hungry Children and Crops in the Field")

Do you think that Lucky Charms cereal will sponsor the next one? I would think that Conan O'Brien should take up the challenge.

Speaking of Leprechauns,can someone tell me what a Garboofy is.My uncle claimed that it was a Leprechaun who lost his pot of gold! Anybody! Help! (I think that is the spelling?)

"Hi, Phaenius - what do you think about this?" "leprechaun gathering,"...hmmmmm...uh...I guess I need to know how one collects leprechauns...the way one collects daisies?

This is hilarious! But Americans are wild about leprechauns. We'll get the title back!
