Anybody see the Irish Independent today and their article on Cork slang and the books and websites around that deal with it. The Dictator here :) is mentioned as is a former member of the Subterraneans who wrote a book on slang. (Apparently Adams uncle also wrote a book on Cork slang in the 80's)

Effing Indo, those O'Reilly lickarses couldn't write their way out of a paper bag. The site for Sean's book is here (http://www.corkslang.com/). Morty's site (http://www.dowtchaboy.com/) should be a bit further along in a week or two when the book goes on general release. The Indo piece is here (http://www.unison.ie/irish_independent/stories.php3?ca=42&si=1274799&issue_id=11592) but you'll need to register. And it's the Indo, so why bother. Just open up the dustbin, take something out, and read that. Probably better quality anyway.
