The title of this article makes is sound spooky. Instead it is just sad and Irish Central just capitalized on that.
Shameful.
Tiochfaidh....indeed.

We're very much apart of Ireland as we were in 1803 and 1916 when we rose up against British rule while the rest of the country did, well, nothing. Up yours and up the Dubs, sirpeter! Sir? And you're calling us west Brits, idiot!

Who cares it was in Dublin.It's not really part of Ireland anyway.The pale never was.The question is if we could drown three West Brits to every true Irishman up there.I think the real Irishmen/Women would sacrifice themselves gladly.We might be able to do something with the country then.West Brits the virus in Ireland.And they hate Irish Americans most of all.Because ye can make the Brits do sh*t. God bless Irish America and God bless the Biblical floods in Dumpland.

Unlike most people in Dublin, I was not affected by the flooding waters. However, I might be affected by the resurrection of the dead, feranbejaysus sake, in Howth, this whoooo-la-ween. Maybe none of their familes prayed for them to RIP?? *Tut-tut... shuda done, shuda shuda done.. the greedy B's.* Hat off, me Respects to the dead, hope yez like me post. Now go an' RIP, mar sé holly Dé.

Same thing happened in Illinois, USA where my Irish fore bears were. One whole side of the cemetery fell in the river.

Unfortunately, the exposure of coffins is not uncommon in severe weather, like floods and earthquakes. Sometimes, as the reult of severe weather, the coffins have broken open and the remains have been exposed or have been damaged or washed away. Really horrific. We're well acquainted with flooding in America. It can be so devastating to people and property. Sorry to read about Dublin's flood.

A third cousin Ruth in Dublin sent me an email about the flooding. Ruth said her son's girl friend escaped from where she worked at the shopping centre that was flooded without a coat or other personal items. She said a woman in a lift at this shopping centre had to be rescued by breaking the glass of the lift.
