Malachy McCourt: Actor, Author and Storyteller


In this day and age, who actually reads books anymore. With the internet these days, you can go online and download a book on to your Ipad, phone or tablet and start reading right there. Even I'm guilty of that. but there is something very satisfying about going into a book store and getting a book for the title and cover alone. Or better still the author. Which bring me to today's entry, one Malachy McCourt.

Even before I was into him(ha ha), McCourt has long been admired as a teller of tall tales, salty jokes, and personal anecdotes of growing up poor in Limerick, Ireland. A big daddy bear of epic proportions, honestly, I have no idea how I first became aware of McCourt. However, I do remember seeing him in small roles in films like "Bonfires of the Vanities," "She's the One" and soap operas "Ryan's Hope" and "One Life to Live." Recently appearing in a small role in "The Other Guys." But what pinged him on my daddy radar was his appearance on the HBO prison drama, "Oz." That show usually good for some male nudity but I had to settle for a shirtless scene of his body being washed after his death. Though he did make up for it later by showing his ass crack in the movie "Righteous Kill."

When he was younger, with his strapping good looks, overflowing charm, and entertaining gift of gab, he could charm the pants off of anyone (probably still can), having a lot of eager sexual partners. I know because he'd tell you all about it in his first memoir, "A Monk Swimming," though a more appropriate title for this memoir would have been "Malachy, Sex and the City." If he did little else, McCourt certainly made himself familiar with the ladies! While "A Monk Swimming" may not be great literature, it is, without doubt, an entertaining work off inimitable style.

As Malachy approaches his 85th year, he still continues to write and to act in movies and television. He lectures on Irish literature and culture throughout the country. I wouldn't mine going one those event to have him sign a copy of his book. Possibly, deliberately, accidentally, trip and fall over so that my face lands in his crotch. I find it best to be subtle like that.



Malachy and his wife, Diana.



 The gray hair, bushy eye brows, those lips attached to that smile. 
Yeah… I’m in lust with Malachy McCourt. 



Mmmm... DSLs... Love 'em.



The gratuitous ass shot.


Damn! Just look at that profile.



OZ is a show about prison life. So why couldn’t they put McCourt in a shower scene or better still. A prison rape scene. Well at least he got his shirt off.



Unable to find nude pictures of him, except a ass shot in the movie “Righteous Kill.” 
It could be his ass. So no one ruin it for me.



I know I would settle for him just talking, but looks like he has a wide month there... 
just begging to be filled up.



He seems to play a lot of priests, bartenders and doormen.  


The McCourt Brothers
Frank McCourt, Michael McCourt, Alphie McCourt and Malachy McCourt.



When I think about it… I’m in lust with his brothers too.






I'm just loving that body of his.





Just love that accent of his as I could listen to him talk all night. Among other things.
