Subject: RE: Firearms query from 'Whiskey in the Jar'
Hurling is a game, I believe, much like field hockey, only with attitude. Actually similar in some ways to laccross.

I'd be pretty much unconcerned about the water in the gun issue, suffice to say the woman arranged for the capture of our hero.

Depending on the version was it Colonel Pepper, Captain Farrell, or Willie Farrell?

Most people newly introduced to the song are done so by a version from Metalica. That means confused lyrics and no melody. But a resistable beat ;-/
