But more importantly I like to make people laugh. So that's what this page is about. I've had an Irish website online since 1999 and I decided to make the move to Facebook to have more personal contact with my audience. The origins of the word blarney are said to come from the time of Cormac McDermot MacCarthy, Chief of Muskerry and possessor of Blarney Castle, Co. Cork, Ireland in the reign of Qu
een Elizabeth I. It seems that Cormac used his silver-tongued excuses to placate the Queen and her advancing army while still keeping his Gaelic loyalties. The Queen eventually grew tired of her smooth-talking subject and declared: "This is all Blarney, he never means what he says, he never does what he promises!!"
Hundreds of thousands of people flock each year to kiss the Blarney Stone to obtain the gift of eloquence. So, if you are in search of blarney, you will certainly find it here! In addition to offering many unique Irish wedding gifts for sale, we also have genealogy research information, ireland travel tips, a guide to getting married in Ireland, Irish baby names and origins, Irish sayings, Irish jokes, and much more! So go check out the website if you want any of that stuff. Otherwise kick back & get ready to laugh your ass off.
