And finally, how about some of that luck of the Irish:
This isn’t luck at all, but more of an attitude, a positive look at a bad situation.
Mary-“I was just wearing my new shoes today when I stepped in a HUGE cow s..t”
Michael-“Well then, tis a LUCKY thing you were wearing shoes!”
Mary-“Yea, Luck of the Irish”www.urbandictionary.com
