conulyFinnegan's Wake (the song, that is.)
They certainly get to brawling fast, don't they? I get that the row and the ruckus has to start somehow, and that they're all a little into their cups by now, and Biddy sure is a buzzkill... but even so. I wonder if we're missing some important backstory here.

Missus Finnegan must've been just furious about the whole affray - I wonder who she punched while the punching was good?
Excellent links; I love the superhero shadows!
