The Irish Fest is a fantastic event, BUT....
do you know what's going to ruin it?
Tell the Frankfort Town Cops to stop harassing every one who drove to or drove away from the event. Trying to generate money for the town through V & T ???? Even the State Police kept a very low profile... Most of the V & T monet goes to the State, anyways. It would hurt the Town of Frankfort and the County of Herkimer if the Irish Fest committee pulled out and held it somewhere else. The town police should have kept their hands off of it.

That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Yeah, okay, let them drink and drive and kill someone in our town...As long as they are enjoying themselves. If you want to drink like crazy and then get behind the wheel, you pay the price and you're a dumb, inconsiderate, ass.
I agree that the town police spend way way way too much time on 5S, however to suggest they should look the other way while an event known for drinking and not leaving on foot is going on, well, thats just plain stupid. I don't know how you feel about your family, but I don't want mine killed by a drunk driver.

I will give you a bit of advice PEZ. Pay your taxes dirtbag,until then keep your opinions to yourself because you have no right to say anything when you are being a bum and not paying taxes. For someone like you, you really have no right to comment about anyone, get over yourself, you are nothing, your "magazine" is a joke and so are you. Go get a real job, pay taxes and then maybe you can comment, until then stfu. Also you should buy your wife a thicker bag for her face, we can still see that nasty face of hers through the one she wears now . You aren't even a fraction as great as you think you are. You are a non-working, non-taxpaying bum, your wife got fired for stealing from BOA and your kids faces look like they were ran over with a lawnmower at young age and you just get uglier by the day.
Creating the members of your family is the biggest mistake I ever made. The way you spam many different sites with your idiotic posts and then respond to yourself with praise is just another example of just how pathetic you are, as if people cannot tell what you are doing, it is obvious to all. Also, Please stop speaking for me you lowlife or I may just strike you and your hobo family down. After all who would miss such an ugly and dumb family of losers? Also homosexuality is wrong so please stop blowing all those men, it is disgusting and for Christs sake please stop fckng sheep and dogs(that includes your wife and kids you sick twisted SOB).
Sincerely
GOD

I am SO GLAD that Father Frank did a very nice, religious post on Sunday, the Lord's Day. Those of you who have shown disrespect for his thread will PAY THE PRICE, and it is very HOT DOWN THERE. You still have time to confess the error of your ways and redeem yourselves. If YOU choose to NOT do that, then do not look to us for help when you are cast into the PLACE THAT NO ONE WANTS TO GO TO AND YOU WILL BE THERE FOR ETERNITY!!

I hope that Father Frank will post here again. Maybe he will SCARE OFF those who like to use this forum for purposes that do NOT find favor with God the Father or Jesus, His Son.

You are fooling no one PEZ you pedophile freak. Everyone knows "Father Frank", "Dr Phil" and now "saint", ect... are really you. You most certainly aren't a Saint, homosexuals cannot be Saints, maybe you meant to type "Satanist". That is more accurate and would explain why your kids look the way they do. You give yourself away with the extreme level of spamming you do on multiple boards and you aren't even smart enough to change up your posting style. On top of that you just happen to show up on every message board one of those names do and then you just happen to post in every thread they do, praising them over and over. lol Get over yourself you pathetic fool.Your conceit is so intense you can't go an hour without flattering yourself. The fact that everyone else views you as a cocky, arrogant, know-it-all, hypocrite, blow hard does not even register to you. No one cares what you think nor do they care about your opinion and certainly no one wants to hear you preach you hypocrite pedophile. Save your BS for your retarded family, they are probably the only ones dumb enough to think you are worth a sh*t. Stop giving sermons, you and your family were a mistake, none of you lowlifes are coming to Heaven and pedophiles like you get special reservations in hell, right next to your lowlife parents.
Please save me the trouble and shoot your family while they sleep and then yourself. It is best for everyone and I assure you your "magazine" nor your opinion will be missed. I do believe however that all those black men in Utica you have been blowing for spare change will probably miss you, but you will eventually all see each other in Hell.
Sincerely

I emailed the people running the Irish fest, told them there was no way I was going to pay the admission charge without knowing what kinds of foods they offered, and I didn't receive a reply. We saved our money by skipping it and went to a couple Irish festivals in Syracuse that offered free admission. The better of the two was the one at Clinton Square.

Live bands from noon til 11 PM, Gaelic football and rugby matches, music and language workshops, etc...how could you even expect to get all that and more for no admission charge? I'd say getting all that for $20 (cost of a 3-day pass) is a steal. One of the best things Frankfort has going, IMO. As for food, it's typical fair/festival food (pizza, fried dough, sausage and peppers, gyros, etc) plus a few places selling corned beef, shepherd's pie, Irish stuff like that.
