A death coach comes for Darby and of course, Sean eventually gets the girl who allows him to catch her. Very sweet. The way little girls believe that life will be and then wonder what the hell happened once they grow up. There's wee King Brian, the Leprechan king that Darby catches and uses to make sure that his daughter falls for Sean. A sacrafice of gold for love...<BR/>It even has a scary banshee. What more can you ask for? I think the one you're thinking of was The Gnomemobile.Ananda girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09578471199205376974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7176829704548523811.post-21400984399511182952009-03-18T13:19:00.000-07:002009-03-18T13:19:00.000-07:00Oh.

I almost bought a shirt with that special guy with those teeth on it this weekend. Do you know what I am talking about? billy pilgrim does. In fact, billy pilgrim's got a Pogues video today that I enjoyed very much. I can't think of his name, the special guy with the teeth, but he's the lead singer. Proud of those teeth I hear. It was a KMRIA shirt as a Pogues cover band, not a Pogues Mahone or just Pogues shirt.<BR/><BR/>Enjoyed your Sheila's comment, the Irish born gal... doesn't it figure? Leave it to the crazy Irish-Americans to party it up so much. ha. We will celebrate anything, speaking for myself and others I know. The rest of you I.-A.s are on your own.<BR/><BR/>Citizen-- Is that the movie with Leo DiCaprio in it where he is that guy who impersonated all sorts of folk and ended up going FBI specialist?<BR/>We loved that movie. Family movie time is wonderful isn't it? What would we do without our boys? <BR/><BR/>All--Happiest of ST. Pat's to you!
