Prompted by your post, I clicked along to Tynan's site and read his bio. I think you should get off his case. His is an amazing story, and he is an impressive man, his love for the Yankees notwithstanding.

Does it look like someone pumped up his suit?

But do we know? Is he a physician, or does he have a doctorate in, perhaps, white-suit-purchasing?

I have said for years that, when the Yankees are on the road, the home team should play "American Pie", "The End" or Springsteen's "Jungleland" during the 7th inning stretch.

Dr. Ronan Tynan was singlehandedly responsible for the Twins losing the 2003 ALDS. Brad Radke couldn't pitch in Game 2 after all that patriotism and suit-pumping and stuff. He may be an impressive man, but he should really take his half-amazing and wholly impressive songs somewhere else.

Like the cutout bin. Hahaha. Oh, I kill me.

But he *is* actually a physician.

How much do you think the Yanks pay Dr. Ronan to sing that overplayed song?

You don't have any business talking about Dr.Tynan like that.It seems to me that you really don't know that much about him.He is a very generous and caring man.Take it from someone who knows a lot about him.And stop talking about subjects that you can't back up with facts because what you're saying is a bunch of nonsense!

All of you have no idea what you're talking about.So let me tell you how wrong you are.When Ronan was born he was diagnosed with a lower limb disability.At the age of twenty he had to have both of his legs amputated from the knee down.He had to walk with prosthetics after that.Later in his life he went on to the National College of Physical Education to study medicine,he was the first disabled person ever to do this.So yes he is a licenced doctor and has every right to put "Dr." in front of his name.As well as being a doctor and a singer he is a an athlete.He won eighteen gold medals and has fourteen world records in various races at the Paralympic Games.And the last of his many marvelous acheivements,he is a horseman.He has one various races in this sport as well.So before you go blabbing off about things you have no idea about I suggest you think long and hard before you open your mouth.Then again your're such a coward ,c.monk, you said yourself you could never say this to his face.Any comments?

I'm still waiting for a reply ,cmonk.

What's the matter are you speachless or something?

I totally agree with mk.Ronan Tynan is an amazing person.

Thank you so much irish chick.

Hiya MK -

You’ve done an awesome job of defending The Irish Tenor Dr. Ronan Tynan, but sadly I think your words have gone for naught. The whole thing was a joke. A bad one maybe, but the fact that you took it seriously is unfortunate. If you read my site you’ll find that the person I make fun of the most is me. The Irish Tenor Dr. Ronan Tynan was just a vehicle I used to out myself as an ignorant, self-centered loser. I’m sure The Irish Tenor Dr. Ronan Tynan is an amazing person, but I don’t really care. It was a joke. Just because he’s an amputee and a great singer and a fantastic horse trainer doesn’t mean he can’t take a some ribbing. My guess is that given the dramatic life he’s had he’s equipped with a good sense of humor. Perhaps if I really offended him, I’d be more receptive to your comments, but alas, all I said was that he rapped on his new CD about the advantages of white slavery. While many of my readers are below-average dressers, most if not all of them are sophisticated enough to realize that The Irish Tenor Dr. Ronan Tynan’s new CD contains no rapping and no pro-white slavery lyrics.

Anyway, sorry I didn’t respond to you sooner; I tend to stop looking at the comments for posts a few days old. Feel free to continue to write about your friend on here, though, as I think it has the makings of a great tribute, plus I think my readers will be endlessly entertained by it.

Sorry to ruin your Sunday,

C.

Thank you for the complement c.monk.I will continue to write.I can't help but defend my irish protege. Just doin' my job!Please write back too.

And one thing c.monk,you didn't ruin my Sunday.I am actually having a fun time writing back and forth with you.Are you really half-Irish?

So where are you,c.monks? I know that you stop checking the comments for a little while, but how am I supposed to write if I don't get a reply?

Ronan Tynan is a manipulative, pompous, self-promoting egomaniac! He uses his disability to gain the sympathy vote. He used his poor Alzheimer's stricken mother to boost himself on a nationally televised interview, showing him feeding her while food dribbled down her dress. He hadn't even seen his mother in years, until he needed to use her!

He was kicked out of the Celtic Tenors in the mid 90s because of his ego. He has a bad rep in Ireland as ego personified. He left the famous "Irish Tenors" holding the bag days after filming a PBS special that had to be canned.

He makes it a point to let everyone know who his "friends" are, Bush, Steinbrenner, Reagan and Trump.
I have a physical challenege as well as a sister with Alzheimer's. Tynan is pond scum!

Where do I begin? How could you possibly have so much negativity about such a wonderful man as Dr.Ronan Tynan? You sound very angry and upset that I wonder where all this junk that you are saying is coming from. Did you have a bad childhood? Ronan Tynan has the most beatiful voice I have ever heard. Of course you don't sound like a person who goes to first class concerts. Another thing is that even my 13 year old daughter noticed that you don't use punctuation the right way. "Even yet" is not a whole sentence. (that's merely an example of all the many punctuation errors youv'e made. However, I don't want to "waist" my time going on and on and on about how many you've made) You should have used a comma to continue with what you thought was a whole sentence with what followed. Also, you couldn't even spell waste.You spelled it "waist" like a part of the body. Ronan IS a doctor, so why wouldn't he put that in his name? If you were a doctor I bet that you would have that in your name,too. My question to you is why would you say that he is a "waste" of time and yet you are "wasting" your time with him? You better not talk through both sides of your mouth, especially when you obviously don't even know what you are talking about, because you even contradict yourself! I don't even think that you will print this because you will bring shame on yourself.By the way,how old are you anyway? (I've seen 2 year olds that are less childish than you seem to be!)

I’m not sure pond scum is strong enough. He treats his non-rich fans like crap. I used to really like him until after the Christmas concert at Carnegie Hall in 2002, when I got a glimpse at the real Ronan. A bunch of us were waiting around after the concert hoping to talk to the boys when they left. We waited for almost an hour until they finally came out and it was very cold. Anthony was sick (probably shouldn’t even have been singing) and went straight to the bus. Finbar was talking to us, signing autographs, posing for photos, etc. But Ronan practically knocked us peons down getting to the bus – and he was perfectly healthy (plus he’d been on PBS the night before talking about how much he really likes cold weather). Who does he think he is? He’s lost so many fans through the years for just that behavior that it’s a wonder he has any left. Until then, I’d kind of ignored the nasal quality of his voice and the fact that he tends to go sharp when he pushes (and he’s a really pushy guy). Not any more. If you’ve ever heard a real singer, you’ll know right off how bad he is. Besides the nasality and pitch problems, he aspirates and waves his arms around like he’s swimming through the air.Meanwhile, did anyone see him on the 700 Club last night? Once again, he got started in on how hot he was and how he always got the women. First, not really appropriate conversation for the 700 Club. Second, what kind of woman would be desperate enough to want him? The man is a bald; fat; hairy; double amputee with jug ears, as well as other, lesser, deformities; and an ego the size of Dallas.

First of all how can you judge someone you don't even know? If Ronan was rude and stuck-up and couldn't sing he wouldn't have any fans left,but he does.Let me give you the 411 on how well Ronan has been doing.Here are Ronan
Tynan's chart positions for 2005:Top Classical Crossover Artists-#5,Top Classical Crossover Albums-#7,Top World Artists-#6,Top World Albums-#5!Shows how much you know about music now doesn't it.You know it really gives me a headache to hear people rambling on about such idiotic nonsense.As a student in music I can say that Ronan is right on target with his singing and pitch.Swimming through the air? Come on!The music business would be far better off without non-educated critics such as yourself.
Why keep embarassing yourself? Because clearly that's what your doing.

He was on Trail Mix last night on Animal Planet which is a show about celebrities and their horses. The poor horse should have been riding him.

Mr. Christopher Monks, if that is your rrreal name (I'm rrrolling my 'r's, for the benefit of the lesser-educated among you), I say unto you, Fie! A thousand curses be upon you. If you were trrrruly half-Irrrrish, you wouldst never dare to speak ill of one such as mineself who hast humbly trrrriumphed in the face of unimaginable challenges. If perchance we ever meet, you may rrrest assured that I will deliver to you a rrright hiding, verily. (The same goes for you naysayers in the comments--thou will'st fear my Irish wrrrrath!) Now I must go; mine gold-leaf toilet paper awaits. You, Bernie Williams--bringest me more caviar, post-haste!

God Bless Amerrrrica!

Absolutely fabuloso!! I loved every word. And it still looks like someone pumped up his suit.

Where is Linda? Linda as long as you're giving advice, what about MK's grammatical skillz. There must be another paragrah or two you can write.

I never realized how much furor The Irish Tenor Dr. Ronan Tynan brings out among men and women. Where's Bono to mediate the crowd?

What's wrong with my grammar skills?

The prior comment was mine.

Don't you mean "the prior comment were mine"?

You're kidding right?

you're kidding right?

And you thought my grammar was bad!

Does anyone here like Ronan Tynan's music?

Don't you mean "you thinked my grammar were bad"?

Not really!

Um,not really!Why has this discussion turned from Ronan Tynan to grammar?

Something is wrong with my computer.It keeps posting things twice.SORRY!

Ian, what's your problem?

hmmmmm!

I could kill myself with laughter.
The ones of you who don't like Dr. Tynan spend so much time to tell us that you won't waste your time with him?! So, why do you write and spend time and thoughts on Dr. Tynan??
And, before anyone feels the need to corrigate my spelling: I am Dutch, English is not my native language.
I still have a last tip for all those who don't like Dr. Tynan's music: don't listen to it! The world is big enough for all kinds of music!

AMEN!Yup,I'm still here!!

Well, I guess Dutchess never heard Ronan Tynan sing his other famous song, "God Spit on Holland."

God bless your poor soul

Now I have heard it all!Some people are so WEIRD.How in the world did you come up with,"God Spit on Holland?"

I personally heard the Rev. Dr. Ronan Tynan sing "God Spit on Holland" at a 1994 exhibition game between his beloved Yankees and the Amsterdam Klöggerhöppers, right before he launched into an impromtu rendition of "Baby Got Back" in Gaelic, complete with Riverdance-style footwork. Fortunately, security was tight, or there would've been a riot for sure. (The Klöggerhöppers won 12-11 in 15 innings.)

You need some serious help,dude.

Isn't the correct title of the song, "God Spat on Holland?"

This is hyssterical! And yes, Ronan DOES have a sense of humor, and yes, C. Monk, he would have gotten your satire! (how in the world did I ever find this place? LOL)

And guess what kids? DR Tynan puts his pants on just like you and me, (or is it "you and I"? Or "me and you"? Or, as we say in Texas "us'n's")He has his faults, as do we all, but he also has some wonderful qualities that so many people admire. So, if you don't like him, you are entitled to your opinion, even if it is wrong!

And as for the Yankees.........

GO RANGERS!

I assure "you'n's" that Dr. Tynan does not put his pants on like me, unless he has three prosthetic legs, as I do. I agree that he has a sense of humor, however, as evidenced by his performance of "God Bless America Except This Texas Hellhole" during the 2004 National League playoffs.

Where do you people come up with this stuff? Seriously,is there nothing better you can do with your time?

No, there's nothing better I can do with my time.

Honey, you need to get yourself a hobby or something.

Ronan Tynan once took a dump in my front yard and blamed it on an autistic kid who lived down the block.

Coming this Fall...
He spat on Holland, he shat in my yard and now he's really angry. He's
"Ronan the Barbarian"

BTW: What makes you all so sure that Dutchess is from Holland? The dutch are spread over most of northern Europe. She could easily be from Belgium. Besides, I assume that Dutchess is a poodle and it's a well known fact that poodles are not welcome in Holland. So there!

I think mk is a Jenningsonian.

Please elaborate Drama Queen,if you don't mind.I'd like to hear more of what you think of me before I reply any further.

"mk" is clearly Michael Kamen, the noted film composer responsible for the soundtrack to Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves--and if there's one thing we can all agree on, it's that the only thing that sucks more butt than that movie is the string of fatherless love-children left all over the world by Ronan Tynan. That and his cover of "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" on Ronan Tynan's Jug-Band Group-Sex Christmas.

I can't believe somebody finally figured out who I was! Ha! Now really, that's the best you can do,Oksana? I mean come on!!!!You are going to have come up with something better than that.

mk, we have you on a "need to know" basis. Unfortunately, this means I cannot and will not explain why I have my suspicions.

I can see why your user name is "Drama Queen".

Actually, "Drama Queen" is an acronym which stands for "Damn Right, Am Monksian Auteur [of] Quality Used Emu Eggs, Naturally."

Also, I have to disagree with Oksana--everyone knows that "mk" = "Michael Knight" = David Hasslehoff! You, sir, are unmasked!

Sir?Hmmm!

I never knew Michelle Kwan was such a Ronan Tynan fan. I guess that explains the time I saw her giving him a "Dirty Pujols" behind the Zamboni at an Islanders game.

Who knew that little Mary-Kate could read?

If you love your freedom, vote against that facist lawn-pooper Ronan Tynan!

It is with great rrregret that I inform the learned members of this inter-net community that I, the Grrrreat Rrrronan Tynan, will no longer be performing the old chestnut "God Bless Amerrrrica," as I have defected to Cuba and will forthwith devote my artistic energies to proclaiming the truth the Glorrrious People's Rrrrrevolution to the oppressed proletariat. ¡Viva Fidel!

Yes Drama Queen, I can read!Wow you're good , maybe you should become a detective.I hope everyone has a happy new year and maybe 2007 will be the year that you all come to realize how wrong you were and are about Ronan Tynan.And also the year you figure out who is behind the "mk" initials.Your not really close though but I do encourage you to keep guessing.

I still have an ugly scar on my ass where Ronan Tynan bit me after I caught him sexually assaulting my toroise, Gertrude.

You are sick!

Damn right, I'm sick... sick of that hobo-murderer Ronan Tynan and his ruthless army of internet henchwomen!

I have it on good authority that Ronan Tynan killed Sinbad.

I quote from an online blog re: Roger Clemens' return to the Yankees.."The only thing missing was jug-eared drunk Ronan Tynan serenading The Rocket with "Still The One". Good Lord. Brutal but true. He is a double-minded Irishman. Says one thing and does another.

Well, if someone young in Ireland is paid in pints of Guinness for singing, what do you expect him to be as a senior citizen,,,sober? Ha. Maybe you're just jealous that he can afford the good stuff to drink as he laughs all the way to the bank.

Hey...leave him alone! When's the last time you spoke to the Prez of the U.S. or Ireland and were asked to sing? Dr. T. has more courage than all of you combined. Spineless wimps!

The reverend, author-in-waiting, future-superhero-to-dave-the-world, the one and only and ever will be Dr. Ronan Keating of the all-Irish-boy-band take-That has annouced he'll be doing the Mets games in future.

Oh, Lord have mercy! The man's a jinx and the Mets just don't need that.

I say let him stay with the Yankees. Of course, I'm starting to feel a bit like Cassandra because the powers that be won't listen to me when I say he's a jinx.

Glavine, you and your eight earned runs in a third of an inning can take that Sinbad-murdering Guinness-swilling all-the-way-to-the-bank-laughing Michelle-Kwan-fondling Holland-basher Tynan, and get your asses back to Atlanta where you belong. Get used to third place, hombre(s).

Sorry, I'm new to this post. Are you guys talking about Ronan Tynen? I heard he sold his legs for a photo of a prepubescent penis and a stale beer.

Damnit, it's true. Dr. Irish Tenor Ronan Tynan IS a jinx. Here I was blaming Challenger the Eagle for the Yankees playoff woes, and it was Tynan the whole time. Should have known after Jennings that anyone who would kill hobos and take a dump on an autistic kid's lawn was no good.

He suit still looks like someone pumped it up. Congrats C--this may be your most successful post ever! Even more than the kielbasa novel you've been writing during the past 3 years.

But when will the hordes of C. Monks fans start harassing the Dr. Ronan Tynan fan club? You know, Ken Jennings style? I know how proud it makes C. when we collectively harass people in his name.

Ok people, I'm back. I know, I know - you've all missed me. I've been reading all of the posts since I've been away & boy let me tell you, your comments just keep getting more stupid by the minute. When will you give up on Ronan? Never, I know. But honestly you are wasting your time. Ronan has a Christmas CD coming out soon & he is doing very well well with performances. He is also in the process of filming a special with John McDermott in Cananda. So, keep posting comments if you like only because you are endlessly entertaining me with all of your nonsense....I guess none of you have figured out yet who is behind the m.k. initials yet

Hey MK, I mean 'Ronan'. Most of us know it's you on here and that you have other aliases in other places, too. You are not the clever "divil" you think you are. Too bad that your career isn't keeping you busy enough - ever thought about a personal assistant? Someone to help you be SO busy that you wouldn't have time for this. Surely you aren't totally satisfied with your career right now. Stop this and get serious, you silly man.

Note to bsparks. You are full of nonsense as much as c.monks. Dr. Tynan wouldn't be on the same page as cretins like you and some of the others above. He is a wonderful man and accomplished more in the past 25 years than most men in 2 life spans. He loves America. We need more people to come to this country who are willing to say so!!

Boy, is this fun. And, yes, Dr. Tynan would be on here...don't be so shallow. There are several hints. Keep looking...

Note to roseleahy-as for the cretins, you're on here, too. And furthermore, I never said he
Ronan Tynan was a bad guy. But there are lots of people in lots of places who could use a little polish.

C'mon. Let's give the guy a bit of a break. When it comes to sports and opera, everyoine is an armchair critic. Anyone who appears and performs in New York regularly doesn't need any polish or advice. Please don't assume I'm a cretin...my mother would be very upset as she paid for a very expensive college degree for me.

Oh, seems we have another critic ....bsparks you are mistaken, I am not Ronan Tynan. I'm not sure what "hints" you were referring to, but I certainly never "hinted" that I was Ronan. Only a mere supporter & blogger. I'd like to hear more of what you think, but alas you have not been the one to unmask me. Another fyi- if m.k. is my initials how did you freakin come up with Ronan Tynan? I can also tell that you have a poor choice of words as being shallow has nothing at all to do with thinking that someone famous wouldn't post on blogs. Seems you could use some of that "polish" yourself....

1. cretin (from the Cretin Chronicles)
A Person that is: brainless, stupid, child-like, and full of pointless information that makes no sense and appeals only to other cretins. They can be found in abundance in every single populated internet forum, where they race to post as many mind-numbing messages as possible in a single session. In addition, they seemingly interbreed with other cretins, ensuring that their cretinous genes continue long after they end up dead meaning the Internet will never be rid of their kind. More's the pity.

Now, listen, I hate America as much as the next man, but those of you defending Ronan Tynan are missing the point. He may be a fine Irish tenor. He may have done many charitable works. He may be a great patriot. He may have an inflatable suit. But the simple fact remains--the man likes to break into peoples' houses and have sex with random jars in their refrigerators. And woe be unto you if you have to realize the mustard tastes a little funny before you accept that.

I don't like mustard so I wouldn't know..

This is for mk when he gets the time to check. On an above post, you refer to Ronan Tynan as "my Irish protege." How did that come to be? Before you answer that, please make sure you know the meaning of the word "protege" so you won't embarrass yourself. This post is now finished and you may carve as you like, you 250 lbs of raw beef. Loved that one!

I am new at this blogging and so far have just been reading this. I must now venture out and post. To bsparks, what is the meaning of referring to anyone as 250 pounds of raw beef? I must say that a remark like that, regardless of whom it is aimed at, is very tacky. Dr. Tynan is far above tacky standards.

Alex Pushpin--you're assuming he has sex...he has physical limitations,however,I guess we all do. But we don't go overboard about sexual prowess and then not be able to deliver the goods.

Note to lillydew - The remark of "250 lbs of raw beef" is a direct quote of the great Dr. Ronan Tynan in reference to himself. This was during an interview with Diane Sawyer on ABC's Good Morning America. Ms. Sawyer was excellent in maintaining her composure when that was blurted out from nowhere. I watched it myself! And, the correct word Dr. Tynan was looking for (in reference to beef) was "prime", not "raw". So, a little homework and polish just couldn't hurt, now could it? And as for tacky...how tacky to say that to Diane Sawyer. She wasn't "shopping" for anything. He must forget where he is sometimes. I believe he made the same remark on the 700 Club (of all places)and I am certain Pat Robertson wasn't "shopping" either. Dr. Tynan just doesn't need to speak of himself as raw meat at anytime. I notice he has not been back to either program.

Bsparks-Ronan DID appear on GMA again about this time last year....he was with the country band of the USAF called Wild Blue Country. Please check the facts, ok? And all those who want to discredit Ronan in EVERY PART of his life need to get a life of their own. The amount of sour grapes on here is staggering. Go, Ronan! Go, Yankees!

I hate to rain on this parade, but Ronan Tynan is not 250 pounds of beef, raw or otherwise. Having been intimate with the man on more than one occasion, I can testify that 600 kilograms of free-range horse is a much more accurate description, if you know what I mean.

P.S. If Pat Robertson isn't "shopping," I'm King of the Zulus.

I read this blog often and have seen the great Dr. Tynan once in concert-if that's what you want to call it-and it was a waste of my hard-earned US dollars. I have seen him on several tv programs. He tries to make jokes or be some sort of comic. Pathetic. Sad as it is, it certainly is obvious that Dr. Tynan weighs more than 250 pounds plus he has a ton of ego he carries everywhere. (How ironic that he is a doctor.) Since he is a Floridian now (and yes he is), I would go so far as to say that "Rosie Palms" is most likely his VERY best friend. She probably travels well and is low maintenance, as we girls say. Of course there are those who defend and admire this man because they think he is for real. And don't think for a minute that he does not read this blog. But, he can take all of this with a grain of salt (on top of a triple cheeseburger, fries and a few "stouts"). Isn't that right, doctor?

I know exactely what protege means, bsparks. Please don't question my vocabulary. And what is all this "he" talk? So I'm a male & I weigh 250 lbs..actually I'm far from it. I don't get why eveyone here keeps insisting on talking about Ronan's sex life & how they think he has love children all around the world..if anyone has love children it's Tom Brady.

Ronan Tynan is a Florida resident, too?? Well, he'd better not stand too close to Derek Jeter. New York City tax auditors, New York State auditors and the IRS might like to make a special appointment with the good doctor.

I heard Derek Jeter went to Ronan Tynan for a check-up and came home with three kinds of herpes and now Jessica Alba has to use a donut cushion when she drives.

This is all a shame, a crying shame! Ronan Tynan may not be perfect but who of us on here is perfect? I have read and heard all of his works. Being a psychologist for many years, I would say the man possibly suffers with an attachment disorder from having been placed in a non-family setting in his infancy/toddler years - similar to the Romanian babies. He may know that a serious relationship is just not for him and that's his choice. He does the best he can and has worked very hard in spite of his personal battles. I still like to hear his singing on my way to work every morning. I sincerely hope Ronan has a wonderful holiday! And, to bsparks - does it really matter if he said "prime" or "raw"? To me, he is prime!

So, L. Dew, did you get your degree in Tynanology from the Dominican Republic or from another off-shore degree mill? You're a hoot.

Regarding the last post by mk (RT) - Ok, ok, ok, so you've had time to get out the dictionary and now you know what 'protege' means. You still didn't answer the question about it. You are funny, too, in a twisted sort of way. The "mk" thing is the funniest...like high school...guess who I am? Unmask me. Whatever, Ronan. Yes, you are or appear to be male (?) and are far from the 250 lbs...maybe 250 lbs twice. Don't be jealous of Tom Brady. He makes cute babies and focuses on his career FOR REAL. Unlike some, he does NOT have the time to play as an alias on a blog about himself and want people to feel sorry for him OR try to unmask him. Check with his people, he might just have some tips for you. Never hurts to ask. Go Patriots!!! p.s. All jokes aside, please don't try to make love children...have you seen Shrek's offspring in the movie? Catch you later MKRT

Lars, aren't you the witty one. For all of you genuine supportive readers on here, Dr. Tynan may have been somewhat neglected as an infant if he was in a facility where he had many different caregivers. Dr. Tynan has such a flat head in the back which could be the result of being in one position too long when his skull was growing/forming. Nowadays professionals recommend the cranial band that gives infants nice rounded skulls in about 3 months. (I'll be waiting to see if Lars goes for another cheap shot here-unless he/she has a flat skull?) Again I will say that Dr. Tynan has overcome so many obstacles and for that alone he must be commended! Why do so many people on here appear to have a personal issue with Dr. Tynan?

Hahah, I just can't contain my laughter! Bsparks I must say that you are quite amusing. Let's just get this straight- I am indeed female. And another thing, I'm not going to tell you my reason for using the
term "protege". That is for me to know & maybe for you to find out. Yeah, you know you're right about one thing - Tom Brady doesn't have time for blogging .. he's far too busy having all those love children. I bet he has more than he knows of. I find it funny that you say that this "unmask" me thing is so high school- you & all of the other anti- Ronan people on here are only playing into it. I'm not the one who started it, thank you. I couldn't care less about that. I bring it up only because I love to see you all go on & on about how you think I'm Ronan Tynan. My favorite though, I have to say, was the David Hasselhoff comment. One comment to lillydew- it's not that they have problems with Ronan it's the only way they know how to deal with the issues they have with themselves- taking it out on what they think is an easy target. Let them have their fun, if you stay on this blog long enough it becomes very entertaining.Ronan is a great guy no matter what they have to say about him. By the way, Ronan has a Christmas CD out, in case you didn't know.

I purchased the news Christmas CD recorded by Ronan Tynan at Costco and am delighted I found it there. It is a wonderful piece of work. Carols are alwasy delightful and make us look forward to happy holidays.

I decided to google the great Dr. Tynan this morning and I found this blog. I am very familiar with Ronan due to a certain project we were both involved with and I crossed the ocean to do so. Had I only known?? I am here to tell all of you bloggers that he is INDEED an arrogant, ego-maniacal, pompous people-user. It doesn't bother him to shout out orders like he is a general. If he is not on this blog as an alias, he reads it. He is infected with himself. (My vote is that he is a blogger:) His arrogant "user" nature draws him. He needs the feed so he can maneuver himself to where he can take the most advantage - whether it be the singing or the handicap. He will fade out in time like everyone else who is full of themselves. Those of you who want to pity him need to work an 8 hour day with him. He is like a shark under your boat. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Yeah, that Xmas CD's great, but what you don't know is that it was originally titled "Ronan Tynan's Satanist Black Mass Feast of Beelzebub," and the cover featured Tynan himself, naked and coated in drizzled honey, devouring a sacrificial Jell-O virgin. Then the marketing people got a hold of it, changed the title and picture, and re-dubbed "Let Us Sodomize God" to "Jingle Bell Rock." But hey, it's your money.

To marcopolo- better watch out, Ronan's internet henchwomen will beat the cr*p out of you if they find you. They are big gals...you may know who they are if you're acquainted with him. Get this...they think they are part of his "team". Wait till they find out the extend of his use of them. They may knock him down & sit on him till he screams "uncle", or worse. Thanks for sharing the insight, tho.

There is not much you can tell me about the Irish people-user. So many truths in lots of these posts. The internet henchwomen term is humorous, but behind the scenes, it is more common to hear references such as singing to a herd of old cows. It's not unusual to hear "guernsey" or "cash cows". He ONLY wants a greener pasture. Over and out.

I've been much mistaken about Ronan and hereby have returned the Christmas CD to Costco for a refund. I looked on his website and he has on Liberace's fur coat. Obviously you can have money without class. However, he won't be buying any more luxuries with this ole' cow's money. Funny, one dissatisfied customer tells an average of 22 people. Maybe that will be 23 of us who do not own Ronan's Christmas CD.

Note to roseleahy - Wow, I've been away and so much has transpired on here. Glad you got your refund. Please check CMonks other blog on here titled "the christmas cd you must rush out and buy as if your life depended on it." It's very interesting to say the least. I have wondered (by seeing the fur coat picture) if the man has more problems that anyone could imagine? I just hope no baby seals or any other animals had to die for that coat. And, how many men have a hood on a pimp coat anyhow? What's that about? Not even Liberace had a hood on his and if anyone would, he would have. Uh-hum. You just never know these days. And note to mk-Ronan - your last post aimed at me regarding laughter? Well, I may be amusing to you, but you and that fur coat "take the cake." We can only hope it belongs to someone else who doesn't mind having it stretched out. Remember the saying "he who laughs last, laughs best." You can probably hear me laughing all over this great US of A.

i just saw ronan tynan in a capital one commercial. i am certain it was him as he says 'what's in your wallet.'

bsparks is one angry chick...don't you know a publicity stunt when you see one? After all, you are so well traveled in the US of A. (That is so corny).

After studying every single post on this entire blog, I have come to the conclusion that mk is indeed Dr. Ronan Tynan in "drag blogging." Don't be angry with him, he is having a great time here and he knows what he is doing! It's the latest thing, you know? Rumor has it that he is a REAL party phenom! Luv the singing but REALLY luv the coat! Baaaaaby-you've got it going on now. Party on, life is too short! @@

jon D-I don't think bsparks is angry or female. Just a rapier wit and a gift of sarcasm. The comment about the coat, tho, prompted me to write that it puts the "sis" in narcissistic, which accurately describes the tenor. And marcopolo obviously knows that with the huge ego of Ronan Tynan, there is no "I" in "team", therefore he doesn't do well with others.

My take on the whole Ronan Tynan thing...he is really a lonely middle aged guy who takes himself and his career waaay too seriously...you know, his job is his life, no wife or kids, it's sad if you think about it. I'm not trashing the guy, I actually think he's talented. Having said that, there is something about him that makes him attractive in a strange way...maybe it's just me.

I, too, think he is attractive in a strange way...glad I'm not the only one! I like the mysterious type. Happy Holidays everyone!

I'm sure you all enjoyed seeing Ronan sing at that hockey game last week, as did I--but am I the only one who was bothered by the fact that his penis was showing?

Maybe we should review the videotape on that one...I was focusing on the singing. I still think Ronan is kind of cute, though - in an offbeat sort of way.

He is strange, alright, but not attractive. Plus any woman over 30 can see he has "virgin" written all over him. He's a bit old to be "cute". He doesn't have the personality for it, either. Way too serious and self-serving. As for the weenie showing at Buffalo...must have been a smudge on your television screen or camera lens. Not even real men would have packages visible in 10-degree weather and snow.

Okay, "cute" has nothing to do with age and I seriously doubt the "virgin" situation. (By the way, I am over 30 and I don't get that impression at all.) I just have an unexplained attraction to middle-aged, Irish-Catholic men who wear glasses and have big beer bellies. I feel so much better now that I have admitted that!

According to a reasonably reliable source, our favorite physician/tenor/equestrian/motivational speaker/party animal is actually married and has been for years. If you notice, besides the blinding "Yankees" ring, he also wears a wedding band. Just thought I would share that bit of trivia with everyone.

Sweet. Who is the husband?

He is sooo not married! This much I know for sure.

Who cares? Who cares if he is married or single? Who cares is he has a Yankee ring, a pinky ring or ring worm? Who cares if he is gay, straight, single, cross-dresser, bad dresser, cheap or sleeps all over New York, New England or New Zealand? He may be very accomplished in various things...but no more so than a lot of other people his age. (he seems ancient, but he is only 47 or so...) What does make me wonder, tho, is knowing the shower rooms for the Sabres all have liquid soap now....no dropping the bar soap allowed when you-know-who is there.

Different strokes for different folks, they say. FYI and TMI maybe, but I use bar soap...my absolute favorite. Cheerio!

Well, honestly I do care about "all things Ronan" because I have developed a serious crush on him. So if any of you know how to contact him, please tell him of my feelings for him. Unless of course he really does have ring worm, forget about it - I have my standards.

Spanx2: You have not lived until you have experienced "vanilla sugar" scented shower gel from Bath&Body Works. You will never, ever go back to bar soap, I promise.

Wow, there are some angry women on this blog. But you know what they say about a woman scorned...hmmm.

Shrek -- now YOU are the cute one. However, I'm not an angry person, nor have I ever been scorned by R.Tynan. He just used my name once in regard to an Irish cruise last year....still no explanation from him on why he did that. I wasn't on the cruise.

Siobahn -- let us know how your "crush" works out, OK? And Spanx...ditto that on the vanilla sugar fragrance from B&B Works. It is great.

My question is simple. Does the "vanilla sugar" come in a bar also?

Furthermore, maybe "vanilla sugar" only comes in Irish Tenor fragrance? Mmmmm

Sorry, Spanx, I believe the "vanill sugar" is available in gel only, but they come out with new products everday. So keep your fingers crossed. Maura: Not to be ignorant or anything, but are you an entertainer or in some related field? Just curious, not trying to be funny.

Thank you so much, Maura, I'm sure you are cute too. Unfortunately, I have been scorned many times, by Dr. T and many others.

I could stand a little "scorning" myself. But for now, I am off to Bath&Body Works for that vanilla sugar. Ta-ta for now.

Hey, you should all check out the other blog on this site about Dr. Tynan.(12/07) There are some women over there who seem to have the real dirt on our favorite tenor. I'm just saying...

To Anonymous: Thanks for the tip about the other "Ronan" blog, lots of great tidbits over there. But they seem to have gone off on a "Josh Groban" tangent. Well, there's no accounting for taste, I guess.

Here's another tidbit. The great (to himself)Dr. Tynan is not EVEN close to being in the same league as Josh Groban...obviously many people have just not heard the clarity and freshness of Mr. Groban. (Josh Groban probably made more money in his first 10 minutes that Ronan Tynan so far.) Of course, Groban has a 20+ yrs jump on the ol' man, so that in itself is not comparable. The Dr. needs to go home to Ireland and sing to real cows FAR out into the pasture somewhere. Why is it that foreign people can't make it in their own country...they come here and expel what they think is talent on us over here (and use "I love America" as their promotional tool). If a person is going to do that, they need to make certain they have a little something to offer - something that makes it (at least)worth his/her time and effort.

Just an observation, if I may - It has been my experience that when a person displays such great animosity towards another, there is generally one explanation. The two people were at one time very close, perhaps even intimate. There is indeed a fine line between love and hate. There is no way that "AnonyMouse" could harbor such ill will towards Ronan Tynan unless she (or he) was once quite close to the man. Rejection does hurt, and can often result in anger and unpleasant outbursts.

YankeeDoodleAnnie - If your observation that great animosity is indicative of a closeness between Ronan Tynan and anyone showing animosity, then the biggest percent of the bloggers have had some sort of relationships with the man. He can only wish.

Good point Spanx2, Ronan would have to be one busy puppy if "Annie" is correct. I guess I am among the minority, as I have yet to experience the wonder that is Ronan.

If I could find someone to love, there's hope for everyone. To Ronan Tynan: Stay strong, brother!!

Shrek - Aren't you married to Fiona?

Of course you are correct, Donkey. My lovely Fiona and I are blissfully happy. I should have said, "I was able to find someone, so there's hope for everyone." Thank you for the opportunity to correct any misunderstanding that my previous quote may have caused.

Did everyone hear the latest, it's all over the news. Ronan Tynan is engaged, yes - to a woman!

Well, I for one am devastated by this turn of events, assuming that it's true. The good ones always seem to be taken.

This particular tenor is not engaged. Never has been, never will be. Not to an American, certainly not an Irish woman, and not an Italian woman. He is too old to change. Narcissists are always loners. They are in love only with themselves. Every time you mention his name on here, you give him fodder for his ego. Yes, he is here blogging.

It's just curious to me how some of my fellow bloggers seem to have such detailed knowledge of my brother from another mother, the multi-talented Ronan Tynan. Are you former friends/associates/etc. of the Doctor? Inquiring minds need to know.

Wow, so much news since the last time I blogged. Glad to see that someone else KNOWS that Ronan Tynan blogs here, too. I knew it!! Hi Ronan-mk...haven't seen "mk" in awhile. Some of your other names are pretty cute, though and you are quite busy on both blogs. But it's ok...don't get huffy about it.

No kidding,is Ronan really on here? If so, I have a message for him...I really think you are adorable, not to mention talented and generous. Give me a call sometime!

Anonymous -- you're funny. Ronan Tynan has never been "all over the news" about anything....much less an engagement.

Hey Shrek, want to go cow-tipping sometime?

Okay, I am not the "anonymous" who posted that entry about the engagement. Obviously, there is more than one person on this blog who chooses to remain incognito. But as long as we're on the subject - I am the anonymous who said earlier that R.T. wears a wedding ring and is happily married. I just wanted to clarify that, thank you.

Donkey: You name the time and the pasture and I'm there, my friend! To bsparks: Maybe "mk" has been awaiting your return, he (or she, I guess) seemed to enjoy your earlier exchanges.

I must disagree with "Maggie" - Dr. Tynan certainly was "all over the news" just last week. It was not regarding his engagement however. He was being taken to task for refusing to sing the Star Spangled Banner before a hockey game in Buffalo. Dr.Tynan says that he will not sing the anthem until he becomes a citizen of the U.S. He will only perform God Bless America. I for one applaud his decision and would like to invite him to visit Canada more often. His future wife is, of course, included in the invitation.

Someone help me here...doesn't Wayne Gretzky live in California now and has for quite some time? Didn't he move here to play and retire from a California team? Guess I could Google that...

I will always be a Canadian in my heart, and will therefore continue to act as an unofficial ambassador for my great nation! My invitation to Dr. & the future Mrs. Tynan still stands. AnonyMous, google if you must, honey.

Ronan is practically my neighbor here in Florida. Saw him just yesterday. I hope we get well-acquainted because we wear the same shoe size. I have a couple of blazers he may want to borrow, as well. Our mutual friend, Jeb, introduced us a few months back. I was astonished to learn we wear the same eyeglasses purchased at Wal-Mart! Being frugal in not a sin. He is my kind of guy.

Wayne G. -- Sure you are Gretsky...hahaha. News in Buffalo would never constitute "all over the news" as Buffalo is not a major metro area.

Janet R - Sure you're the former atty general...hahaha. However, giving you the benefit of the doubt, I've always thought you were a big clown.

I did just that...I googled Wayne Gretzky. I also found where I could ask him an actual question. Mr. Gretzky has never heard of Ronan Tynan much less received and invitation of any sort. What's up with RT...is he tripping?

Excuse me, AnonyMouse, but I think that earlier post alleged that Wayne had extended an invite to R.T., not the other way around... just to clear up any misunderstanding. To MaggieO: I actually did see a report re: the Anthem controversy on a Philly station, just to let you know. Oh yes, and Erin Go Bragh!

Maureen - have you had more than your 2-martini limit? it is maggie_kelley, NOT maggieO. Sober up!

Maggie O or Maggie Kelley or Maggie May, whatever you are calling yourself, when it comes to martinis, I know no limits. That goes for my dear friend, the extraordinary and deeply misunderstood, Ronan Tynan!

Cheers girls!!

The singing of the US National Anthem could be easily resolved. Hire Daniel Rodrigues, the singing policeman. He appears at Yankee Stadium and at other events. He has been on Schuler's Crystal Cathedral, etc. He has a lovely voice and is a citizen. I wouldn't call Tynan nor Rodriguez extraordinary, tho. They are ordinary.

You know who else used to like to sing things like "God Bless America" at things like baseball games? Hitler, that's who. And we all know how that turned out.

I agree, Daniel Rodriquez does have a lovely voice but I still have a preference for Ronan. That's just my opinion. One question though, why do they sing the Canadian Anthem at hockey games that involve two American teams, and is taking place on American soil? To Patrick: Is that video on Youtube?

Siobhan, the reason they sing the Canadian anthem at insignificant hockey games is because hockey is an insignificant and albeit ignorant sport.

Maire: You might want to watch what you say about hockey, Wayne Gretzsky was apparently here just the other day. I hear he is also a good friend of Ronan Tynan; you wouldn't want the both of them angry with you at the same time.

Hey Shrek - Don't you wish there was a blog just for us movie stars (of another kind)? This back-and-forth stuff is tiring. The other blog is about as crazy as this one...have you looked at it?

Donkey: What other blog are you referring to my friend? It is tough being a movie star(and sex symbol) sometimes, isn't it? By the way, my dear Fiona sends her best to you and yours.

There are comments about another blog on this CMonks site. I found it and it is titled "A Christmas CD you must rush out and buy...." and the subject is also Ronan Tynan. Check it out. It is not much different than this one. Hi to Fiona-ha.

To Donkey: The other blog seems to be full of anrgy comments from Ronan's bitter ex-(or wanna be)girlfriends and, believe it or not, Josh Groban groupies! Pretty funny, thanks for the tip.

CMonks...where are you? Please be advised I have a sister named Fiona and so does Ronan Tynan.

Siobhan -- Don't take all this so seriously. Everyone on here is phony. It is part of the fun of blogging. Phantom people post messages about subjects they know nothing about. It is CYBERSPACE, don't ya know!! Talk is cheap, and even cheaper on the internet. Lighten up, ok? If you should happen to be a friend of Ronan Tyan, or Ronan himself, just know that this spacey stuff is all silly games.

Siobhan - the other pages are just like this one. Fantasy land is open for business 24-7. I could be George W. Bush and still put down any name. But it is part of the blog culture.

HEY! I really am donkey, not an alias. I never do mind using my real name as I have no thing to hide. And, don't forget Shrek's betrothed is Fiona, also. I, myself, have my own Dragon and Dronkies. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Serious, me? Alrighty, then...

Maggie: I just hope that you thank God every day that you are NOT George W. Bush.

Anonymous: I'm more thankful to God that I don't have to wake up to that Dubyah face every morning and realize I'm married to THAT!

Maggie: After a while, you can get used to anything. At least we have this nice big house to live in.

BAAAAAaaaaaaaammmmbeeeeeeeenfnnfiiiiiirrrrgggghhhhAAAAAAAAHHhhhronantynanherpesAAAAAhhhhh!

Again, I find myself at a total loss...

Charlie B.: I know just what you mean, and I feel your pain.

I was looking out my window today. I discovered the leaves have not yet fallen from my neighbors oak tree. What's that about?

It means that Al Gore was right all along, Lillian.

Yes he was right - Hillary for Prez/Gore for VP - yeah, that's the ticket!

Wow, not much going on since I last checked. Thank you to my fellow bloggers for "educating" me regarding the whole cyber world. What would a naive and very serious girl like myself do without your words of wisdom? I am eternally grateful for your guidance.

Go Hillary, go girlfriend! And Janet Reno for V.P....now that's THE ticket!!

Siobahn - you are all but slurring your words. Get some help now, to get off the Guinness. Please get professional help.

Me, slurring words? You can't even spell my name right. Guinness is sooo not my drink of choice anyway. Besides, was I speaking to you, Mary??

Earth to Siobhan...this is the WORLD WIDE WEB! You are speaking to everyone who reads this anywhere in the WORLD! And, mary_casey, there apparently are still people who don't understand that yet and it is 2008!(I am shaking my head)

AnonyMouse: Seriously, people all over the WORLD can read this?? I had no freakin' idea; thank you for this valuable information. Now stop shaking your head befor you hurt yourself. P.S.: I am so glad you spelled my name correctly in your post, I get quite annoyed when people spell it incorrectly!

Hey Siobhan (?)- The CORRECT way you spell your name is R-O-N-A-N T-Y-N-A-N. You did better when you were "mk".

...not even close...

Hey, bsparks, I completely agree that RT is here under an assumed name, but I do not think it's "Siobhan". I think she is one of his loyal followers though. After reading through some of the previous posts, my guess is that "Donkey" is the tenor in disguise. Of course, I could be wrong.

Once and for all, I really am Donkey. Please believe me, or better yet, just ask my friend, Shrek. I'm sure he'll vouch for me.

I would like to take this opportunity to address the above posting signed by "Donkey" on 1/28/08@ 12:14am. I don't know who you are and won't ever know for sure, nor will other bloggers. But YOU KNOW and I KNOW that you are not the original Donkey...you are using the alias as you do the Shrek alias. This is pretty much proof that you are Ronan Tynan (and bsparks is correct in that you are on here). And, if that is what "floats your boat", then do it. Use all other bloggers' names that you like - but keep in mind that some of us know each other, so you are messing up. In the event that there are future postings by "Donkey", then they will be you (RT). I will no longer post. So, whatever you wish to reply with or as, go for it. Too bad you ruin things...

Geez, Donkey, you need to relax. I was reprimanded a while back by my fellow bloggers because they felt I was taking this all too seriously.(I was really just having fun, but whatever!) They also felt the need to explain the whole concept of the Web to me. What would I do without their insight? Seriously though, lighten up, okay? (FYI: there are posts on here by another "Siobhan", name spelled incorrectly and definitely not me.) BSparks: Wrong, keep guessing.

Not guessing, no guessing needed...don't you WISH it was a guess, RT?

Okay, BSparks, I know you are convinced that I'm actually RT in disguise. You're wrong, I don't even know the man, I'm just a casual fan of his. I have only spoken up on his behalf (with some humor, I hope)because it seemed like some bloggers were "ganging up" on the guy. Of course, I realize that most of it was all in good fun, as were my posts. Maybe I'm just one of those people who always cheers on the underdog. Anyway, that's my story, now gave a great day.

Oops, that's "have" a great day!

I would like to thank Siobhan for defending me. However, I don't think of myself as an underdog particularly. Bsparks, ok, you're correct. I do like to post using an alias from time to time. That is the nature of a blogger, right? I will not divulge exactly which aliases. Now that this issue is settled, please check my website for updates and photos. I will be adding much more soon. Thanks, C Monks! Take care all!

Dr. Tynan - thanks for joining in our blogosphere! Your website is great. Please join us here again when you can. Bsparks can relax now that the issue is settled.

RT: You're welcome, the "underdog" description was not meant to be negative in any way. Anyway, thanks for clearing things up...and maybe I'll be fortunate enough to see you at that big, beautiful Stadium in the Bronx.

So why is Ronan Tynan always the girl in the aliases? Creepy. And, what's with the sister thing. Double Creepy...so NOT hot.

Awww, I think Siobhan and Dr. T have developed a mutual cyber crush. It's kind of sweet and disturbing at the same time. Oh, what the hell, best of luck to you both!

So, Dr. Ronan Tynan IS on here! Hey, with all these aliases, he keeps it safe...

I believe that's called "schizophrenia"...heard about it last week. Still creepy!

Brittany: "Schizophrenia" actually has nothing to do with many identities or multiple personalities; many people have that misconception. The fact that Dr. Tynan or any other blogger chooses to use various pseudonyms is not necessarily a sign of mental illness. It is more likely a symptom of extreme boredom at work and, dare I say, a sense of humor and creativity.

Brother Joyce, does it matter? He's still creepy.

If I didn't know the dr. personally, this blog would give me the ebeegeebees.

"Creepy", like anything else, is in the eye of the beholder. I'm just saying...

Nora: Is 'ebeegeebees' a medical term? Siobhan: You are still defending your sweetie, huh? Well, loyalty is an admirable quality; I only hope the feelings are mutual.

My wife asked that I read this particular blog. I did. It is obvious, and all jokes aside, that Dr. Tynan may indeed have some serious identity issues. Replying to one's self is questionable at any rate. Seriously, this is disturbing and there is no doubt that some of these aliases are the same person replying to himself/herself. This is all the time I will spend here and I will encourage my wife to do something else with her time. Good day!

Oh good Lord, lighten up Dr. Boyd!! FYI: Attempting to diagnos an "identity issue" or anything else by reading a few blog postings is probably not the best idea. Most of the people here are just having a good laugh, including Dr. Tynan, if he is indeed among the bloggers. No, I am not Dr. Tynan, although I'm sure some genius will once again make that assumption.

This blog is beginning to get a little too high-brow for me - a PhD is now among us? I think I may be in way over my head.

Why would a PhD sign as Dr. Joe Smith, PhD. Most medical doctors don't sign Dr. Joe Smith, MD. Redundant? I know, it's very trivial....but a mistake nonetheless.

As for the PhD issue, well it's really Ronan Tynan AGAIN getting it all mixed up AGAIN! Someone help "them".

Why would Dr.T post something so negative and insulting about himself? That's really twisted, if it's true.

Uh, because I'm twisted and I CAN'T HELP IT. Leave me alone people! Even for a big guy, sometimes I just can't take it!!

Wow! It looks like Dr. T might end up calling Dr. Phil. That will get him nowhere fast.

Seriously, can the real Ronan Tynan sue people for using his name on here? I know we now have a PhD, do we have any lawyers blogging who might know the answer?

Well, I am certainly not a lawyer, but I think it's just wrong to use another person's real name when posting. Be creative and make something up, geez. Oh, and yes, Charlie, I will continue to defend my "sweetie", as you refer to Dr. Tynan. I still think R.T. is adorable and talented.

Seriously Siobhan, I doubt anyone can sue anyone else on here. Blogging is just that...people being stupid sometimes. Do you really think Ronan Tynan would blog on here OR even take the time to read this stupid stuff? Give the guy some credit now. To me, it's more fun to use silly names than real names, but still it's all in jest. I have read blogs on all kinds of subjects, people, places, religions, etc. You would not believe the famous names that show up. Everyone knows that the blogger's name is never the real blogger. That's the fun of it. I know that Ronan Tynan would not blog on here...it's sort of a career standard or something. I mean, the tabloids use direct (but false) quotes on famous people. Too bad there are so many idoits in the world. I wish we could get this blog back on the "fun track".

Ummm, Mickey Mouse, I never said I thought R.T. or anyone else was here, those suggestions came from fellow bloggers. Just remember, some forms of humor are more subtle than others ok? I am well aware of how this all works, but thanks for the whole blog tutorial.

Does anyone have a good recipe for tortilla soup? I have seen the soup mixes but prefer it homemade all the way. Please help me...

Britt: I would think getting soup recipes would be the least of your worries.

Ok..I see what you mean. I shouldn't worry with soup recipes. I will make brownies instead. Got milk?

Brittany, I'm happy to see that milk is now your drink of choice. Don't even think of adding any "extra" ingredients to the brownies, ok. Sober is a very good thing.

Yes, the Giants win!!! This is great, now if only the Yankees can somehow FINALLY win another World Series.

Well, Siobhan, if the love of your life, Dr. Tynan, continues to sing that incredibly long version of God Bless America during the Yankees playoff games, they might just have a shot at winning. On second thought, maybe not.

Well, Charlie B., I hope that wasn't a negative comment about the New York Yankees. In case you didn't know, I am a huge fan of that particular team. What's this about Siobhan and my friend, Dr.Tynan-is a romance brewing? Wouldn't that be lovely!

Hey, Brittany. Make sure you dress HOT to appear in court...something low-cut. But wear some panties, causde some judges are old fogies. Good luck, girl. Don't worry, you can get those "special" brownies thru HOT jail guards. Love your show, babe!

Hi! I just finished a batch of great brownies. I had to make 7 batches before I got it right. I think it was Betty Crocker's fault actually. I get blamed for everything. And no, nothing funny was added. Maybe a couple of things left out? I just can't think. Since someone may be concerned as to whether I wear panties to court or not, I think that is all I will wear. Then no one can say a word about it! If I can get my attorney to do the same, then we might have a chance at me getting the kids back...or at least seeing them. I love everybody, dammit. Is that too hard to understand?

Oh, Shrek, are you giving me a hard time, too? Somehow I expected better of you.

Now, now, Siobhan, just a little teasing at your expense. Please forgive me if I have offended you in any way. You seem like such a lovely person, always defending my good friend, Ronan. Have a wonderful day.

Does anyone know if you can freeze brownies? No one seems to want any and I don't want them to go to waste. I am just so proud that I got them right. I make good brownies, dammit!

Yum, yum...Maggie, maybe you could whip up a batch for me. Alas, my lovely Fiona is not much of a baker.

I've been doing some reading here and on the other blog. I am 99% certain that if Shrek, Charlie Brown, Donkey, Siobhan, (and a couple or three from the other blog) would all stand up now and go look into the nearest mirror, they would all see the same person...Dr. Ronan Tynan! That single 1% is what keeps Tynan hidden since blogging is generally anonymous. It's like he has to get into "character" to blog, yet anyone with any wits about them can tell it is him. Why doesn't he get it? I wonder if he ever asks himself, "why do I do this crap?" He should just write songs if he likes to type, etc. Get something NEW going on. Also, several bloggers on the other blog are quite irritated with him. He's the one who should "come clean" as he says....

BSparks: I can't speak for any of the other "aliases" you mentioned, but I am definitely not Ronan Tynan.(Yes, I do use one other alias on the other blog; I think you might, too). I thought we had settled this earlier. I know there is no way to convince you of that, but as for people being "annoyed", I'm not so sure about that. I think mostly everyone on here is having fun, except maybe you. This is all supposed to be fun and not taken too seriously, right? If you or anyone else is that irritated, you can find another source of amusement.

Nope, I have no other names...just this one (and it is my real name - nothing to hide). I do not blog on the other RT blog but I read it. It's too much like this one. However, I do blog on two other C Monks blogs. The guy should have a comedy show of his own. Nevertheless, Ronan Tynan seemingly is irritating to people who have actually seen him (you) speak or perform. And that has nothing to do with blogging or irritated bloggers. I am going to make it a point to see him (you) this year, just don't know when. Then I will know. I will check his (your) website for dates. Hopefully not all the audience will have blue hair. Sorry, but I am not going away...don't even try that one! Blogs'R'Us!

Okay, I will no longer waste any effort on tyring to convince you that I am NOT the good doctor. But I will also be sticking around, this is fun. By the way, are you a man or a woman, B.Sparks, just curious? (I know you won't believe this, but not only am I not R.T. -I'm a woman, from NY.)

Siobhan-Shrek, did you go look into the mirror yet? You
