And a more gorgeous hunk never walked the earth. And oh that voice! With those brown eyes and black hair, there may have been a touch of The Amada going on there, I'll wager. If so, it was an unbeatable mixture.

Good article, Jean! I was listening to Raidió na Gaeltachta last week. Three young ladies were being interviewed because their high school magazine (written in Irish) had just won an award. The interviewer was asking each one of them what they wrote about. He got to the third girl and it went something like this in good Munster Irish: Óstach: Só, cad ar scríobhais faoi? Cailín: Scríobhas faoi mo chol ceathrair. Óstach: Agus cé hé do chol ceathrair? Cailín: Gregory Peck. Óstach: Gregory Peck! Do chol ceathrair? Cailín: 'Sea. Óstach: Bedad! Host: So, what did you write about? Girl: I wrote about my cousin. Host: And who is your cousin? Girl: Gregory Peck. Host: Gregory Peck! Your cousin? Girl: Yes. Host: Bedad! So Gregory's people in Kerry were and are Irish-speakers! Le gach dea-ghuí / Best, - Jerry
