irishmurr > Flag Day 2008 -- and you know irish is going to fly the tri-color as well as the American flag!


"The flag of the United States has not been created by rhetorical sentences in declarations of independence and in bills of rights. It has been created by the experience of a great people, and nothing is written upon it that has not been written by their life. It is the embodiment, not of a sentiment, but of a history."
~~ President Woodrow Wilson, who issued the proclamation establishing June 14 as Flag Day
irishmurr > Happy June Everyone!

Michael and Michael (think we need a couple more Michaels around here?) having a great time on the trampoline at Michael K.'s baby sister's baptism party.  Whew, that's a mouthful.  (June 1, 2008)





"Spring being a tough act to follow, God created June."
   ~~ Al Bernstein
irishmurr > SP in the front end of a 1941 Cadillac.

Poker run with the car club ....  followed by meeting up with Trisha and Chas to see the Cleveland Cavaliers lose to the Boston Celtics .... quick decision as to which shot to use as my daily .... and then it was off to bed for me!  (May 18, 2008)




"The more we do, the more we can do; the more busy we are, the more leisure we have."
   ~~ Dag Hammarskjold
irishmurr > It was margarita night out with the girls!

We were formerly known as the Alley Cats, before giving up our bowling "careers" due to aches and pains.  We may not bowl anymore, but do make sure to get together at least once a month to catch up and keep in touch.  (April 30, 2008)






"True happiness consists not in the multitude of friends, but in their worth and choice."
   ~~ Samuel Johnston
irishmurr > No, I haven't decided to start riding my bike to work -- we're just getting our wheels ready for a Sunday morning ride on the tow path through the park.  (June 18, 2008)



"The Federal Trade Commission has ruled that oil companies are not gouging customers. They say, technically, they're screwing customers."
   ~~ David Letterman
irishmurr > Last Call.

The neighborhood cat who likes to hang out at the pub until closing time, hence her name "Last Call."

It was a busy day at the office, so I came home, put my feet up .... and used a shot from the other day!  (March 13, 2008)





"If a man insisted always on being serious, and never allowed himself a bit of fun and relaxation, he would go mad or become unstable without knowing it."
   ~~ Herodotus
irishmurr > Here are some flowers for everyone who sent well wishes to Johnny yesterday.  This is one of the best group of people I've run into in a long, long time.

There are some in particular who have helped me through a very private and very painful time -- and for those of you ..... well, I don't think there are enough flowers in the whole world to say thank you appropriately, but I thought I'd give it a try.

So, to ALL of you -- Thank You!
(August 3, 2008)




"Strangers are just friends waiting to happen."
   ~~ Rod McKuen
irishmurr > This is one of the flower shots I was working on when Johnny decided to start walking -- so here it is, just one day later.  (May 14, 2008)




"The earth laughs in flowers."
   ~~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Johnny took his first couple of steps today!  Looks like it's going to be a fun summer for all of us, doesn't it?  (April 17, 2008)
