I Need A Good Toast... Somthing Short And Sweet, But Meaningful.

Not too cutesy or comical... but not a prayer-sermon either.

Got any ideas?

4. "We don't have to like each other. We're family."

5. Look at these sites

Maybe you'll find one you can use.
The Irish have always had the best toasts.

Am going to Ireland in '06. Am going to go to Abbeyfaele Parish in Limereck where I have family buried as far back as the 15th C.

Ever look at this site re: Irish real estate? Am planning on checking out some when there, especially in County Cork.

Here's the link re: search for property by county:

I'm hoping to make it to Ireland in '05. We'll see.

I'd love to be able to buy property and live there.

15. Prices here are going up about 12% a year.

Ouch. It's getting to the point where working class families can't afford to buy...actually, it's already there.

6. Some of the old Irish ones are pretty good.

Here's a short sweet one

May your glass be ever full.
May the roof over your head be always strong.
And may you be in heaven half an hour before the devil knows you�re dead.
