Re: Arise Sir Bono
I shall listen to Elgar in honour of the Queen in order to reciprocate the gesture. Perhaps the Taoiseach should make her an honourary member of the River Dance cast as a gesture of goodwill?

Good for Bono - he could sit on his arse and keep making millions but he chooses to work for humanity. He's a good man. |
