On an aside, do you rememebr - nah, you're too young - in the nicest possible way - the Irish Tourist board ran a series of full page ads in Eng;and "Come Fishing in Ireland" "Come riding in Ireland"..... etc. Apparently "Come Shooting in Ireland" was the last in the series and the last for the agency concerned.

I like your first idea, and I also read this morning that the officials are still saying that merely because someone has been convicted of being a sexual predator--that's no reason to ban them from working around children (**How about BREATHING???!!)
