You may have noticed that Looka!'s permanent tagline, "weblog and (almost) daily blather" is now gone, replaced with ... huh?

Looka! gets a new title bar tag line every month, and I try to make them witty, clever and/or culturally relevant. For March of 2004, since it was right after I returned from my first trip to Ireland since 1992, I chose a tagline line in Irish: "Bia agus deoch, ceol agus craic." This, of course, prompted a phone call from my friend Mary, demanding "Okay, what's that gibberish at the top of my free content?"

I explained to her that it was a saying in the Irish language I'd seen outside many traditional pubs, informing those who might wish to come inside that "food and drink, music and convivial good times" are to be had within. "Gee," said Mary, "that sounds just like what your site's all about." She was right, of course ... hey, that's not a bad idea ... and as of March 1, 2004, we've got a new, permanent tag line. (I'll still change the ones in the title bar every month, though.)

Tar isteach ... tá fáilte rómhat anseo.
