Happy St. Paddy's Day

Wear something Orange, just to be difficult.

I suggest wearing something white in support of peace.

Or shoot a Protestant.* I have now fulfilled my angry violent ancestral Irish Catholic tendencies. ;p

Seriously though, to me this holiday is nothing about Ireland but just an excuse to get together and have fun with friends, drink all klnds of weird green things, poke fun at us Irish-Americans and wish you could hold your liquor like we do. It's fun and fluff but by all means have a good time! I will. :)

*I do not condone shooting anyone based solely on their religion. It's a joke, I say a joke son.

Difficult, or begging for an ass-kicking in certain sections of Boston? ;)

With the O'Halloran, I don't have to wear green.

Well then....

In classic Irish tradition: POG MO THOIN!!!!!!

If you are suggesting it, why don't you go do it at some Irish Pub and see what it gets you! And yes, I have a realative who did it once and he lived to tell the tale.
