  • Coming Up For Air to Say Hello!!

    Hey Guys, Thank you for the emails asking for more content. I apologize for not writing lately. Let me correct that, I apologize for not writing for Irishman For Hire lately. I have been writing.

  • The Letter, Twelve Years Later

    It was an amazing Thursday night. The grass had been freshly cut and the aroma wafted throughout the infield.

  • The Post-It Note, Twelve Years Later!

  • Christmas Eve, Twelve Years Later!

    We circled the block a few times trying to find a parking space. The wind whipped through the New York City buildings and a light snow fell as my nerves started to get the best of me. Could I do this? What if we got caught? Was this really how I wanted to spend my […]

  • The Underground; Twelve Years Later!

    It had been a little more than a year since I had found my birth name and I was personally frustrated with myself at the progress I had made. Life changing events had consumed a lot of my free time, so my opportunities to continue my inquiry had been put on the back burner. I […]
