Not very good ones because they were caught and given the choice, in Ireland, of hanging or immigrating to Canada. Fortunately for me, they chose immigration. None of my relatives have been killed on a Saturday night although I have a distant cousin who killed an acquaintance on a Sunday night.<p>P.S. - Jimmy Carter is one of only two politicians that I have ever dealt with that I have ever held in esteem.
