Ireland's own Sheamus appeared on NBC's Late Night with Jimmy Fallon last Friday. The two-time WWE champion talks about his "milk bottle tan", his former life as an IT guy and, as any good Irish person would, the weather.

The name Mick Foley will resonate fondly with millions of pro-wrestling fans the world over. Or, as he himself would say, parodying a one Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, "the dozens and dozens" of fans around the world. To me though, that name resonated with me on another level, as I identified it from a young age as an oddly Irish name for a 90's American pro-wrestler. Now, just as in the spirit of Barack Obama's visit to Ireland this past May, Foley visits the home of his (perhaps) faux-ancestors for his comedy tour to bring the laughter while "checking out the Foley family tree!"
Tickets for the Cork date are €19, or €26.50 for VIP (incl. booking fee). Limerick tickets are selling at the slightly cheaper price of €16.50, or €24 for the VIP treatment. This includes the show, an 8x10 signed photo, meet & greet, photo op and the signing of one additional item.
I have already booked my VIP ticket for the gig in Cork, and I highly recommend getting a ticket too. This is something not to be sniffed at!
This meme was made in the seconds after news started filtering through that Osama Bin Laden had been killed. What a moment, but what an awesome image this is.
