The Irish Curse 00/00/0000

Opened: November 30, -0001

The Irish Curse - - History , Info & More

Size matters to Joseph Flaherty, Stephen Fitzgerald, Rick Baldwin and Kevin Shaunessy. This small group of Irish- American men (all professionally successful New Yorkers) meet every Wednesday night, in a Catholic church base- ment, at a self-help group for men with small penises. This allegedly Irish trait is the focus of their weekly whining and bitching as they feel this "shortcoming" has ruined their lives.



"Casella is at his best when he's going for laughs. He gets a lot of them."

- Neil Genzlinger, New York Times "
