Not sure what to say?

Since this is the last day this will be up here I just have a couple of questions:

1. How much is a pint of Guinness in heaven?

2. How many television stations do you get? Are they all religious?

I still miss you. Thanks for the laughter and the beers.

Well Mick i just want to say thank you for helping the white sox win the world series! I felt your presence during the whole playoffs and world series, It was you who whispered in A.J.s ear and told A.J. pierzynski to run to first base on that dropped 3rd strike and it was you who convenced the umpire that the ball hit the ground. It was you that pushed scott podsednicks ball over the wall in game two to give the sox a victory, i mean the guy has only hit 1 home run during the whole season...

Hey Uncle Tommy,
I think of you every day, whenever someone tells a joke (of course, no one tells them as good as you) or when I give some one a back scratch. But it's hard ... I love you and miss you so much especially now with your birthday coming you would be 66 (10 years younger than my mom). No one can take you away from us, not really, and I hold on to that to get me thru.
Party hard Uncle Tommy
Always yours
Julie
