So if you were to know only that I was living in Ireland right now, and that one of my housemate's grandmother was visiting today, which of these would seem to be the most likely topic for the distinguished, elderly woman to bring up in a disapproving conversation in our kitchen this afternoon:
A) The Troubles in the North.
B) The "music" kids these days are listening to.
C) The proposed plan to build luxury boxes in Michigan Stadium.
The correct answer, of course would be: C).
To be fair though, she lives in Grosse Pointe and has been a huge Michigan football for much longer than I've been walking this earth.
Needless to say, I enjoyed meeting and talking with her.
(I also got a chuckle the other day when I was in the kitchen while she was on the phone with someone back home, and described Galway Bay as "like Saginaw Bay". heh. :) Laughs aside, though, it's actually a fairly decent comparison, at least size-wise. Galway Bay is a bit narrower at this end, but more triangular shaped and less enclosed at the mouth.)
