2. Fundraising ads for plays are even worse.

Jane Ruffino of GetBulb has done a bit more digging on the abortion stats released recently from the UK.
She says:
Abortion rates have been dropping everywhere over the past three decades, including among women resident Ireland. The numbers traveling to the UK have dropped to about 4000, from a 2001 peak of more than 6,600 (which was also the year emergency contraception became available in Ireland).

I was showing people around Glendalough [Co Wicklow] last night. They asked me why such a peculiar figure for a fine. I tried my best to come up with a creative lie and failed. Anyone have an idea how Wicklow coco [County Council] decided on this?
Oh.
