And uh, once upon a time, you went to a bar and you told the bartender your life story. Is it just me, or does everyone get the bartender's life story now? He was a charming older Irishman, and we talked about politics and Ireland and the rest of it. He owned a bar in Ireland, and I found it surprising that some bars in Ireland are also gas stations. Seems like a bad combination to me, but what do I know.
