Once upon a time in the United States of America, there were 6 nice blokes who all worked together at an engineering firm.  The first was born in America, the second in Scotland, the third in England, the fourth in Wales, the fifth in Ireland, and the sixth,  well...he was a Scouser.

(For those of you that don't know, a Scouser is a person from Liverpool, England, where a number of the inhabitants are descended from Irish who emmigrated there long ago.)

The American was named Yannis McCarthy (his mother was Greek). The Scott was called Ian MacPherson, John Smith signed in as the Englishman, while Ioan Thomas was from Wales. Our friend from Ireland was Sean O'Keefe, and the Scouser...well, they all just called him "Scouse" and he didn't seem to mind.

Now, we find our nice fellas all on their own for St. Patrick's Day. It's about 4PM, and they are each trying to decide what to do with themselves on this evening. Yannis was trying to decide in which Irish bar he would spend his dollars. Ian was thinking of a quick one at a local British establishment. John thought, perhaps, this was a good night to go directly home for a private pint. Ioan wondered if he might pick up something on the way home. Sean pondered whether he would drink "Harp's" or "Guinness". And Scouse, well, he just figured the car would stop wherever it wanted and he'd find that silly American excuse for a pint there.
