My favourite comment so far is "Hah! They only voted yes so they could get the pot of gold!"

So what does it take to get a state/province/country into the Century of the Anchovy?

[theweaselking.livejournal.com]

Excellent question! "social and cultural equality" maybe? I don't know - but I'm of the opinion that "legal equality", while laudable, is still something that makes you "less backwards".

Ireland voted "Yes" and today is Eurovision Song Contest. Coincidence!? I think not!

With the numbers the yes side got, I think this might be less of "Dragged, kicking and screaming" and more of leaping in with both feet. Good on them.

Thank you or Fuck you
