A Taste Of Ireland
A few observations that don't seem to fit in anywhere else:
-I consulted an Irish girl about the roving canine phenomenon, and they check out. Most of them aren't strays; she says that their owners let them go and they fend for themselves for a few days and they eventually make their way back home.
-A good percentage of the time, people, young or old, give a quick sign of the cross whenever they walk past a church.
-A great Irish joke: inspired by me being the only male in an eight person group for my video production class, Sinead O'Mahony quips, "Blessed are you among women!"
-What's a perfect lunch in Ireland, in Lent, on a Friday? Fish, chips (which I didn't realize before I came, actually are what we call fries), and a Guinness. Oh, greasy greasy heaven.
-Ian Paisley cracks, even in an improv setting, don't go over very well here. Especially when you refer to him as "Uncle Paisley."

Cousin Martin,
Glad to see you finally figured this thing out (kind of). Jack & Coke exists, but you have to mix your own drinks here. They'll give you a shot (and it's metered, so don't expect more) in a glass, with the Coke in a bottle next to it. That should be easier to figure out than the comment situation though, I would hope.
