Agreed. Thats really funny. Won't help the already strained relationship between the community and students-- but- thats really funny.

I have no objections to this as long as they get up at 4:30 am for morning prayers, sell all they have and give it to the poor, and fast for most of the day.

That article was a classic in itself. I am still chuckling over, and his son and the other eight Apostles declined to answer questions.
And Georgetown architect Outerbridge Horsey ? Seriously, you can't make stuff like that up. I just ran into his cousin, Outerbridge Crossing, heading over to NY the other day.

The name dates back to the original Outerbridge Horsey, who served as U.S. Senator from Delaware from 1810-21. The name has apparently been passed down through the generations--at least three, maybe four also had the name. |

As a charter member and an elder namesake of the O'Neill sept of Ireland I object strenuously to the change of names from the Apostles of O'Neill. Anyone familiar with the history of the O'Neills of Ireland can vouch for the fact that equating "O'Neill" to "Peace and Unity" is like equating Bill Clinton to a cloistered monk.

Yes, Black Hugh O'Neill did not really do Peace and Unity. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hugh_Dubh_O%27Neill |

purely genious. The snobby neighbors gave me and my friends such crap when we were there. I love every second of this. If they were really smart they would get a ministers license online, it takes like 5 mins and is legally binding.
