Another event to "commemorate"

The less known Bloody Sunday happened today. Here's the Britannica synopsis:

"Notably, on “Bloody Sunday,” November 21, 1920, the IRA murdered 11 Englishmen suspected of being intelligence agents; and the Black and Tans took revenge the same afternoon, attacking spectators at a Gaelic football match in Croke Park, Dublin, killing 12 and wounding 60."

Unlike the even more widely hated RUCs (Royal Ulster Constabulary), who are basically a paramilitary terrorist group, the Black and Tans were jobless ex-military guys enlisted when the Irish police force mostly resigned in response to the Troubles. The name comes from the uniforms they were issued, as police uniforms were in short supply.

See my post on the Armagh Sniper for my solution to this issue.

Kinda amusing. Might be more so if you were absolutely shit-faced, which is why I'm posting it here. Figure you guys have a better than average chance to be in that state.

Truly Evil Singing

Just ran across a link to this on Nodwick.com. A review of Evil Dead the Musical, currently playing off Broadway. Doncha know I'm dyin' to see it. Best I can hope for is that somebody'll release it on DVD. With songs like "All the Men in My Life Keep Getting Killed by Candarian Demons" and "What the F--k was That," it's a must see. There's a YouTube link for video of the performance, too. Here's the link

Also check out the main site at evildeadthemusical.com- they have merchandise.
