Booked the car rental


We just booked a car rental for Ireland.... For 2 days.

Ed is making us drive across the country of Ireland (Flight and hotel are in Dublin) just to kiss the dam Blarney Stone...

My travel books tell me the Blarney Stone is a tourist trap, and it is rumored that drunk locals will pee on it night... but still this is not deterrent for Ed.

Thats 252 km to kiss a rock that is covered in lipstick and disease.... Literally we go across the country of Ireland twice in one day and keep in mind the day before we go I will be drinking nothing but Guiness and Jameson for approximately 12 straight hours and we are only in Ireland for 2 days!!!!

After all that driving all you get is the gift of GAB.... we're not kissing it for goodluck it's for fucking GAB. Like Ed needs any more of that.

***(UPDATE) You'd think someone who was afraid of women (Poon) would want to get the "Gift of Gab". In this context, "Gift of Gab" refers to gaining a silver tongue (i.e. Having or exhibiting the power of fluent and persuasive speech; eloquent.) Sure Poon may tell a great story or two but when it comes to women... lets just hope the Blarney Stone works. -Ed***

Definition: source
gab
(gb) Slang
To talk idly or incessantly, as about trivial matters.
n. Idle talk; chatter.


It costs us 16 euros for 2 days from www.budget.ie (Ireland's Country specific Budget rental site) strangely if you try to make the reservation from budget.com it costs 3-4 times more.

Picking it up at Dublin airport right when we arrive, then dropping it off at the hotel (free parking)

We will be cruising in a Ford Festiva, Manual so I don't have to drive. It should be fun for Ed and Milo driving on the left side of the road, and on the right side of the car....
