Although the DNA string in eastern Oklahoma gets traifed in the tellin' it would seem I am apparently 1/4 of the "other" Irish. AKA Scots-Irish.
A small article on what that means here;
Scot-Irish - The Other Irish

When Cathy and I were dating her catholic heritage was an issue with the family. I asked her if she had any Irish in her. She said "no,my family is German.
I pressed the issue, "Yuv' got no irish in ya a tal?"

"Nope!"

"want some?"

Fortunately for me she accepted my proposal.

I have heard it said that the Scotts invented whiskey to keep the Irish from ruling the world. This is a complete falsehood. As everyone knows, the only true whiskeys come from Ireland.
