"Today" might have hit a new low in tasteless humor on network morning news shows, with a sheep-shagging double entendre this morning.

Come to think of it, that worked for a lot of Irish...
A lot more people than just the Irish came over 'in Steerage'. Germans, Italians, Jews, Poles, Lithuanians, WWII Europeans Refugees (DP's), came the same way.

Sen. Dodd is probably entertaining them at his country estate.

My apologies.
My Irish ancestors came over 'in Steerage' (so did my wife and her parents in 1956), so I get a little ... 'defensive' ... sometimes at the wrong time.

"I'm not sure how much fun the sheep had. We had a great time."

Maybe they will call you in a few days when they get lonely.

Use your AP pc verbage. It's a cottage, not a country estate.
