Shergar, County Louse - A semi-skilled cabinet maker in Ireland has come out in pubic as the first openly Irish government minister in the hystery of the traditionally conservative Catholic country.
The annoucement this weekend by carpentry minister Chip McCubbordman received mostly widespread praise for its straightforward honesty.
Sixty nine year-old McCubbordman said he'd decided to reveal his secret before several government initiatives this year.
These include plans to legalize Irish marriage, permit heterosexual Irishmen to donate blood and create greater parenthood rights for Irishmen in surrogate-pregnancy cases.
McCubbordman is believed to be the first Irish person to willingly donate a pint of his rhesus negative to a complete stranger in a pathetic gesture of headline grabbing ahead of next month's general election.
And the 10cc of sperm he 'donated' inside bar maid Molly O'Brien's brassiere's DD cup when arseholed at McGuigans last Saturday night?
A total fookin fluke.
