Passion = Truth? How Jeffrey James Francis Ircink Sees The World? I love when people are passionate about something. That surging of emotion is the one honest measure of what truth is. It's a truthful display of how a person really feels about something or someone at that particular moment. That passion IS truth.



About me...

Ex-producer of THE REALLY FUNNY HORNY GOAT INTERNATIONAL SHORT FILM FESTIVAL, playwright, actor, singer, outdoorsman, blogger, amateur photog, observer & bitcher, Beach Boys groupie, Brett Favre fanatic, lover of everything Celtic and forever a member in the Tribe of HAIR. Spent most of my life in the Village of Waterford, a small town just outside of the Milwaukee suburbs. After 12 years in North Hollywood, Bel Air and Culver City, Cali, I moved back to Wisconsin in September 2009. No regrets - of moving to LA OR moving back to WI.

Life is good.

Day. St. Patrick's. Happy.


I'm still tuckered out from "sugaring" (burning maple sap into syrup) with my brother the last three weeks so my energy to get creative this St. Patrick's Day is sapped. HA! Get it? Unlike most years, "sugaring" came pre-March 17 (watch for posts).

That being said, my love for everything Irish has NOT waned. So, here are some of my favorite blog posts from my blog, "Good Craic. Welcome to Eire" (my 2009 trip to Ireland). One note - mute the music on this blog before you open up these links. I'm thinking you won't wanna hear two Celtic tunes playing over one another.

1.  "Ceol" means "music". Live music from Galway and Castle Oranmore in Galway.

2.  "Dathannach". Translation: "Colorful". Various places we visited.

3.  "Fear Faiche" loosely means, "green man". Pastoral photos set to verse.

4.  "Teach tábhairne" means "pub" in Gaelic. Me - in front of a lot of pubs.

5.  " Mé " means "me". More me - all over Ireland.

Enjoy...I know I did. Slainte!

Fight scene from "The Quiet Man".



Couples don't walk like that anymore, you know? Classic John Ford (director) - and Wayne and Maureen O'Hara and Barry Fitzgerald. Watch it.

"A Christmas Story" original theatrical trailer.



A Christmas classic. Visit the original, rennovated home of Ralphie here.

Ralphie as Adult:  [narrating] NOW it was serious. A double-dog-dare. What else was there but a "triple dare you"? And then, the coup de grace of all dares, the sinister triple-dog-dare.
Schwartz:  I TRIPLE-dog-dare ya!
Ralphie as Adult:  [narrating] Schwartz created a slight breach of etiquette by skipping the triple dare and going right for the throat!

Nova Scotia Balsam. Model #2011.


Last year's Christmas tree (after I tossed her outside) didn't start turning brown until May. Really. I love real trees. It's Celtic, primative...and she smells good.
