Playing "connect the dots" on other portions of her anatomy would be interesting.

Fun counting them with your tongue, heh, heh, heh.
I call freckles seasoning. And she is well seasoned!
She is missing the hand written sign of todays protest trend: "I AM THE 6%" "I have Freckles"
I would have to see what the flip side looks like, Rodge, to cast a judgment.
HEY, Wait a fricken Minute! Maybe most former bootleggers from the North East are Dems. But us southern and western American Irish are too conservative to be Dems.

Yes, but you are exceptional and relatively few in numbers and political influence.
Student in one of my classes asked me to write a poem about a girl with freckles. Said it was "for her sister," who had even more of the damned things than she did.
Here's what I came up with -- kinda surprised her:
Incognifox Spring 1989
Satisfying.
That’s what she is
Pleasant, not pretty
Healthy, not heavenly
Sensible, not sensual
Durable, not delightful
One man’s treasure: Daddy’s.
Red hair, green eyes
White teeth, a bit askew
and freckles! Everywhere . . . ?
Somehow perfect, though, for her
Heavy-duty body
Off-the-rack clothing
Just-out-of-my-eyes hair
No model, this . . . no starlet . . . no vision
Just young woman . . . Everywhere!
No thousand ships here . . . no fights . . . no toasts
No nonsense.
No young man’s fancy:
Imitation as intellect
Mimicry as maturity
Violence as passion
Laziness as leisure
Snobbery as class
Real world lady:
Person, not presentation
Face, not composition
Flesh, not fantasy
Companion, not conquest
Friend, not fox
But I can see her
With these hardened lenses
Past these shortened arms
While younger men prowl . . .
And I can love her
With these softer standards
In these longer views
While younger men scowl
And I know her . . . now . . .
And she never has to know . . . now . . .
And she knows their minds
Before they know themselves
But they never know each other.
And nobody wins.

As a person with a large part of my ancestry in old Irish, Scots Irish, and Northern English who settled on the Isle of Mann for a hundred years, then on to Ireland for a hundred years, (I figure this made them Irish), then on to America, in time to fight in the Revolution on the side of the colonies,I must say that I have never understood how any Irishman or any Jew, after all BOTH these groups went through in their histories, could ever be supporters of Socialism or any of it's manifestions, like Communism or Naziism or the Democratic Party in it's present form......
As my friend Cecil always twists it, "I ceased to be amazed."
Huh?....Wha?....Award for longest sentence of todays comments.... No, no...thank you very much for the recognition...No thank you..You're too kind...Thank you all.
I consider what England did to Ireland to have been in the finest Socialistic traditions.
The English had the Irish grain and livestock shipped to England and left the Irish to live on potatoes til the blight struck and then they, (England),rose to the occasion and with swelled Socialistic hearts, had American corn shipped to Ireland and watched the Irish people die by the millions.
The Irish should back anarchy before they should back Socialism and Totalitarianism.
One would need to be particularly thorough when checking her for ticks. Wouldn't want to miss one of the little buggers.
Eyes! Amazing eyes!
The freckles are like stars with those eyes...

It's bad enough that you call us Irish liars but to then say that most of us are Democrats goes beyond the pale. I demand satisfaction. Guns or knives, sir?

Ohhhh... freckles. Damn you, Rodge.
Verification word: tenties. I'll say.
