Here's what I consider a funny story; when my Irish fiance was alive, some fool called the house and tried to 'warn him' about me. All of a sudden Donny let out a rip-roaring stream of Irish and then slammed down the phone. I couldn't resist teasing him. "If you don't want me to swear, why should you do it yourself?" He was still too mad to think clearly. "HOW DID YOU KNOW I WAS SWEARING?" "Because, dear, no man turns red in the face and yells at the top of his lungs w/o swearing." Anyhow, I knew a little more Irish than he realized. Of course he wasn't mad at me, and things quickly settled down to normal although it took awhile to make him tell me what the phone call had been about.
