Hobokart

On the run from the law, hiding out in University of Limerick and using the HEAnet to undermine the Irish educational system and download copious ammounts of Heroes, My Name is Earl and of course Music.

If you're in need of a pop culture junkie from Tipperary (currently living in Limerick), if you can afford to pay his rent and if you can find him, you might just Hire: The Superhobo (aka Hobokart).

Sin é, well I'm a first year Digital Media Design student here in UL, dound the 2IGTV on iTunes about a year and a half back and I've been listening since, for my sins. Laughing

Limerick is as good a spot as any to hide from the law. Grandaddy always said it was a lawless place, full of vice and licentious women.

Frank McCourt has a children's book out about his mother's childhood in Limerick, called 'Angela and the Baby Jesus.' When you open it, you can almost hear the sound of a check being cashed.

I had a bizarre conversation once-upon-a-time with a cabbie in Dublin about Limerick. While telling him about my upcoming touring plans for the emerald isle, I happened to mention my intent to visit Limerick, at which point he burst into hysterical laughter, punctuated by occasional declarations such as, 'Limerick's a slum! Why on earth would you go to such a place of your own free will?!' I left the guy nearly doubled over with laughter after he'd gone on for near five minutes like that. Strange.

Welcome Hobo!

Ah, it's not THAT bad really... seriously... DON'T SHOOT MEEEEE!!!

It could probably do withj a bit of the old Rudy Guiliani treatment. I mean we all know what happened to all of those homeless people in New York... *

* They were relocated to a farm in Middle America where they could roam free with the other Hobos.

They were taken off the street, provided free quality education and healthcare, given jobs, and given a chance to become productive members of society?

well as a fellow fellow of UL (oh the puns!!) I can happily attest that Limerick City and environs has some genuinely lovely spots; brimming with character populated by singular individulas whose wry humour and good nature reassure that Ireland is indeed a wonderful place to be. Then there are places where the post man wears kevlar and these must be purged with holy flame. Still if you want to smuggle "spice" and avoid "emerial entanglements" I suppose you dont really care about the former...

The eternal armies of House Atreides perhaps?
