She has a split personality?

Oh, no.  Maggie/Rua is one of the most consistent people I know.  She has very high principles and will NOT compromise them.  If you don't really want to know how she feels about something, don't ask!

No I don't have a split personality......I am a redhead....rua is Irish for red.....

My granddad was a Ryan in North Tipperary. That's like being a Jones in Wales.
In that part of the Country, you will see Ryan above most of the Pubs and stores.
There are so many Ryan families that you have to have a nickname.
My granddad was Ryan Séan Rua.......Red John Ryan, because of his hair not his politics.
His politics.......well, you don't want to know. Let's just say he would be thrilled to bits about the Celtic Tiger.

In case anyone is still under the misconception that we fans don't make a difference to the performers -

I wrote to Alexa the other day, expressing our best wishes for both Méav and Lynn.  I just received a reply which said, in part:

"Lynn is very excited about her involvement but is also a little anxious as you can imagine.  It will be a great boost for her to know that the fans are behind her 100%.  Thanks again to you and everyone for your support - we can't do it without you!"

even for someone who talks a mile a minute (I have to almost press my ear to the speaker to hear her at times with my good ear)
What I found from Orla was a very soft voice and my hearing is not all that it should be. i have a hard time with real soft sweet voices, especially outdoors next to a busy road..
I also have to listen closely and carefully when she talks. But I do enjoy listening to her. It is such a pleasant speaking voice, and the speed sort of makes it more interesting. I would love to sit down with her a while and yak away. She also seems so positive about everything, and very respectful. How many times has she said "our wonderful music director Mr. David Downs"? It seems more than just kissing up to the boss. How many of us call our bosses wonderful? lol

And Z, if you are near a busy road, voices arent a priority. Hearing trucks, buses, cars, sirens, etc are! Be careful.

We were at the doorway to IHOP, 30-40 feet from Apache Blvd in Tempe. Orla and Lisa were perfectly safe.

I was actually taken by surprise to meet Lisa as I got out of my car as she was surpised to run into me. We talke don the way to IHOP ( She was continuing to the hotel on teh other side. Orla came up behind us and she shook my hand as we talked. I woul dnot have imposed on their time for an autograph if I collected those any more than I would have interrupted Mairead's meal. (Which I didn't) Now a hug and a kiss might have been an option <g>

lol considering Lisa and Orlagh are married.......... I highly doubt a kiss would have been an option....... a hug now that wouldn't be so bad.............lol


Btw...... I just found by reading an interview...... I have something in common with Lynn Hilary YEAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!

Lol..... I hope she can project better than I can...... I'm still working on it.
