Irish Thought for November 15...

Irish Folklore

Cluricauns

There is much debate about whether cluricauns are simply leprechauns out on an all-night bender after work, or whether they are a more rambunctious, ill-tempered, nocturnal cousin.  Cluricauns do resemble leprechauns, besides a rosy, inebriated blush around the nose and the fact that they are never seen in work clothes.  They are known to drunkenly entertain themselves by capturing farm animals or goats and race them in bogs or fields.  Cluricauns can sometimes by found in wealthy men's cellars, drinking wine and breaking bottles, but if they are cut off from their alcohol supply, they will move on to pester someone else.
