According to politician Charles Haughey, "Ireland is where strange tales begin and happy endings are possible."
Ireland is familiar, yet foreign. The food
isn't exotic by our standards, but we don't eat Irish stew or
cabbage every day. The culture is close to ours, but they've got
Riverdance and we just don't. At least they speak English. Sort of.

Ireland is one of the largest exporters of software in the world. So apparently it's switched its target market, going from potato eaters...to couch potatoes.
