A chara, - (Gabriel Byrne's ghoulish - albeit thankfully sweetless - portrayal of old men (T na G, Halloween) seems to say that old age is not worth living for. The alternative is unmentionable: makes you think, though!

There were no old women shown. Sex was suggested for the younger activists by a seemingly silent order of practitioners. No words were spoken.

The opening of T na G was withal swished through with verse, vivacity, pulse, pace and life. Comhghairdeas! brea geal dechasach. Mol an Oige! Coimead an beim ortha siud. Sin e an sli is fearr. It's a great day for the Irish! Good on ye! Mise le meas.
