The comedian kevin Mcaleer has a great joke about the first time TV came to rural Ireland. His family eventually got the 'aul box' in the corner of the room. The whole family used to sit around it in the evenings.
His father used to say 'what's on the aul box tonight?' as all the family stared at it. Then he'd say 'there's nothing on the aul box tonight'...eventually one night he said 'we'll have to get rid of that old box, it's useless, we'll get a TV instead'.
What I wish women knew about us: we need to cut loose every now and then and go on a 3 day bender with my mates without my girlfriend/wife knowing where I was or what I was doing.
