Goodbye Ireland! Hello Cuba! / Adios Ireland! Hola Cuba!

Anyone from eIreland can post the content of this article if they so choose. Mainly because as an eCuban in eCuba, I cannot post in the eIrish media anymore.

Dear Ireland,
It has been wonderful. So many thanks, so little time. Thank you for being so welcoming from day one of my arrival. Thank you for putting up with my questions and my all-round noobery. Thank you for your support when I began publishing articles. Thank you for truly being my eHome away from eHome. Now it is finally time to go back home to the islands.

I will not betray you. I will continue my practice of only defending / freeing original regions. So, unless you are part of an invading / occupying force somewhere, we will never meet on the battlefield. I will, of course, make trips back to the Emerald Isle and continue to harass the media from time to time.

Until that time,
Take care! Fare well! Much love!
Harrilal and the Midnight Robber.

I leave you with one of my favourite calypsos.

Cualquier persona de eIreland Publicación del contenido de este artículo, si así lo desean. Principalmente porque como eCuban en ecuba, no puedo publicar en los medios eIrish.

Querido Irlanda,
Ha sido maravilloso. Muchos gracias. ¡Gracias por ser tan acogedor desde el primer día de mi llegada. Gracias por aguantar mis preguntas y mi noobery. Gracias por su apoyo, cuando comencé a publicar artículos. Gracias por ser mi eHome lejos de eHome. Ahora es el momento de volver a casa a las islas.

No voy a traicionar. Voy a seguir mi práctica de sólo defender / liberar regiones originales. Así que, a menos que usted es parte de un invasor / fuerza de ocupación en alguna parte, jamás encontramos en el campo de batalla. Yo, por supuesto, hacer viajes de regreso a la Isla Esmeralda y continúan hostigando a los medios de comunicación de vez en cuando.

Hasta ese momento,
Tenga cuidado! Vaya bien! Mucho amor!
Harrilal y el Midnight Robber.

Os dejo con una de mis calypsos favoritos.

CUBA! Hello!
This has been a long. long time coming, but I've finally come home to the Caribbean! I got goosebumps when I logged in to find that little flag next to my name. I'm not a mover or shaker of policy nor am I a great warrior. I'm not even a Cuban in real life. However, I am from Trinidad and Tobago and Caribbean blood flows in my veins.

A very quick introduction to my feelings toward the economy and war and you will immediately know all you need to know about me. When it comes to buying products, I only buy from my country of citizenship (Cuba, in this case). When it comes to war, I only defend original regions or help to free them from occupying forces. There are enough imperialists and expanionists that I can get my fights in easily.

I have no intention of joining the political fray. The media is where the fun is for me. I also don't write what others want. I write what I like. It's probably why I have such low readership, but I have doing what I do, so I don't care.

Anyway, this is just a hello and a thank you for accepting me.
I look forward to helping Cuba reclaim its land from the USA.
Together we aspire! Together we achieve!
Harrilal.

CUBA! Hola!
Este ha sido un largo. mucho tiempo en llegar, pero por fin he vuelto a casa en el Caribe! Tengo la piel de gallina cuando entré en encontrar esa pequeña bandera al lado de mi nombre. Yo no soy una compañía de mudanzas o agitador de la política ni soy un gran guerrero. Ni siquiera soy un cubano en la vida real. Sin embargo, soy de Trinidad y Tobago y la sangre fluye del Caribe en mis venas.

Una introducción muy rápida de mis sentimientos hacia la economía y la guerra y usted sabrá de inmediato todo lo que necesita saber acerca de mí. Cuando se trata de comprar productos, sólo compro de mi país de origen (Cuba, en este caso). Cuando se trata de la guerra, sólo defiendo regiones originales o ayudar a liberarlos de las fuerzas de ocupación. Hay suficientes imperialistas y expanionists que puedo conseguir mis peleas con facilidad.

No tengo ninguna intención de unirse a la refriega política. Los medios de comunicación es donde la diversión es para mí. Asimismo, no escribo lo que otros quieren. Escribo lo que me gusta. Es probablemente por eso que tengo tan baja de lectores, pero he de hacer lo que hago, así que no me importa.

De todos modos, esto es sólo un hola y un gracias por aceptarme.
Espero poder ayudar a Cuba a recuperar sus tierras de los EE.UU..
Juntos aspiramos! Juntos logramos!

One more time? Ask Harrilal!
How it works: I normally take the first five (5) questions asked in the previous article's comment section and answer them however I see fit. This is the final Irish Ask Harrilal, so I'm answering all 6 from the comments (though, the Irish are still welcome to ask Harrilal!!).

In future I may translate Ask Harrilal to Spanish, but I'm feeling a little lazy at the moment.

Mr. Tayto asks, "How was the honeymoon?"
I went home to Trinidad to get married and then we honeymooned in Tobago. There was a copious amount of rum, bikinis, sun and sand. Went to waterfalls. Went to a few parties. Exposed the wife to the local life versus being a tourist. It was fantastic.

John Gormley asks, "Do you like self-aware questions like this one?"
Is it really self aware? I mean, did the question write itself? Or does it know it's a question? Did it tell you so itself? I suppose I like them, if only to fill a few lines in my articles, but if it rises up with the other questions to take over the world... I blame you.

Viktor Kurgan asks, "Are you part of reptilian alien illuminati conspiracy to steal cakes from innocent people?"
If I am, it's news to me. Though, I do love cake and sometimes I do shed skin...

Paddy OBrien asks, "What is your favorite memory of your honey moon?"
Well, I get the feeling everytime I go to Tobago, but walking off the plane and getting a blast of salty, sea air. I'm a person who digs nature a lot and that sort of thing really resonates. Also, wife in bathing and/or birthday suit for the entirety of the trip... can't go wrong there!

Grainne Ni Mhaille asks, "Name one advantage of being married."
I am no longer pestered by family (mine or hers) about getting married. That conversation got tired after year 5 (we've been together for almost ten years). Seriously.

A second one is taxes. This advantage, we took on years ago though, when we were first considered "common-law partners". Though, I must admit that if we were actually married, it would have been easier the first few times. We were audited and had to prove our common-law status etc. If we were married we could have just flashed the certificate from the government and be done with it.

With all the other advantages, it can be argued that marriage is not necessary to achieve. It's why I wasn't in a hurry to get married, because we had already hit all the notes that people were telling us we would hit when we got married.

In her case, she definitely has been looking forward to the wedding itself since she was a little girl. A public show of affection and devotion in front of friends and family. This was less important to me, but I wanted her to be happy.

CheetahCurtis asks, "If I gave you $666.66 what would you do with it?"
Well, it's not 1976 anymore and I already have a computer, so I would pay rent with it or invest it. Investment seems more likely as I make rent already. Need to square away a bit more so I can buy a house.


And that’s all of them!
Remember folks! The first five (5) questions asked in the comments of this article, will be answered in my next article!
Thanks for reading!
