Irish funeral? Is that where they cremate the body in Scotch whiskey?

Yeah, and end up with MW Ron's karma? Not on your life!

Cremation is optional but there IS Scotch involved!

Ah, like me, you must come from a Heinz family, not purebred Irish.
The latter would outlaw Scotch from the premises and go with Irish
Creme or Irish Whiskey, methinks.

Yeah, well, I have old friends who are getting $5 million bonuses on Wall

If there's such a thing as reincarnation...I'd go for happiness, accomplishment
and fulfillment. Money doesn't necessarily do that for you, it just provides
