Clareman - Q&A

Clareman

I just noticed earlier that my 5,000th post was coming up and I figured I'd better mark it somehow, as this forum is where I do most of my posting I figured it'd be the best place to mark it (no offence to the other Mid-West forums or the GAA). I also did know how to best mark it so I thought I'd do a Q&A Session, so feel free to ask me anything you'd like to know about me or what I think of stuff, I'll be honest in my answers.

I realize now that this sounds very full of myself, but hey ho I have to mark 5k somehow I guess.

OK, here is one..

Where do you believe the Clare/Limerick boundaries should be?

1. For Inter county GAA
2. For City/County admin and council services.

Clareman

For GAA I think parish/county boundaries are spot on, you have to have something to go by and these are used by educational services so they seem to work ok most of the time.

For administrative purposes, I really think that Irish people have to start to realize that we really are a small country that is wrapped in a ball of red tape, having 26 different administrations for stuff just because that's the way it also has been is a bit of a joke, it's as easy/difficult to have 1 medium size administration than it is to have 4 or 5 small ones.

Is it true Clareman the you have 12 fingers and only 7 toes?

Clareman

Fully normally digits, although I have broken 7 fingers playing hurling and football, dislocated by thumb playing hurling as well, that's by far the worse injury I've had playing sport I think

You're following in the footsteps of DeVore (One of the founding members of Boards.ie) he had a Q&A session a few months back too.

I just want to know why it has taken you from 2004 to 2012 to clock up 5,000 posts?

Congratulations on your 5,000th post!

Clareman

I'm thinking more along the lines of the old "In the Well" days from the Poker forum when folks reaching 1, 5 and 10k answered questions.

I tend to read most of my posts before posting them, I'd say if I was to click post after just writing them I'd have 10k posts now

Also, I used to have an old account on here but I got a job in a company with no personal internet access and forgot the username and password so Clareman was born.

Are you really from Clare?

Yup, born and bred, well born in Limerick technically. The oldest surviving photo of me is of me in a Clare onesie that my mother had knitted for me for the '78 league final.

Nope, over 30 years to go before retirement, I've never worked for the public service, I've worked for some of the biggest multi-nationals based in Ireland.

Keano

Do you think we will have to wait 81 more years to win Liam?

Clareman

I don't think we'll have to wait as long, the back door system means that more and more teams will get there sooner (hopefully), I do believe that we won't get anywhere with the current people in charge of the senior team and (more importantly) the county board.

Neither, just excellent at multi-tasking

What are your thoughts on One Direction?

I have double your posts, does that make me cooler or sadder than you?

Davy fitz - are you a hater?

Would you ever consider making me a mod?

Favourite type of cheese?

It's not a competition, we're just both fans of social media

I wouldn't say hater, I think he was a great servant of Clare hurling as a player, who will ever forget the penalty in Thurlas in 95 or the save from Leahy in 97? I do have a massive problem however with his father being so involved in the county board setup while he's manager, it reminds me of an episode of The Borgias.

Not up to me, would you like to be a mod?

I've been lucky to have been a lot of places around the world thanks to work, 1 time I was in the north of Italy sitting outside a local bar with a couple of colleagues, I couldn't speak Italian, they had very little English, sitting down, having some lovely wine and then some melted cheese and olives were brought out (with crackers), don't know the name of it to this day, but that's my favourite type

What is your favourite kind of music?

Clareman

I'm a grunge head really, had a ticket for the Nirvana concert that never happened

Pearl Jam would be my favourite band, but I've over a terabyte of music on my server, I could listen to anything, I really don't like "talent" shows though

Are you married

Clareman

I am indeed, happily married to a woman far too good for me, and no she's not a member of boards

Brilliant answer and your probably right!!

So, next one when are you organising the first singles night for boards members in the Ennis area??

Clareman

There's plenty of cattle marts to meet up in Ennis, in fact I met herself in 1 of them

mEnnis can't be overloaded with men looking for wives not friends though

Have you any idea who took the horse to France?
Would you give someone you loved your last rollo?
How do they get the figs into the fig roll?
AND
Are those my feet?
