When you die, may you be in Heaven half an hour before the Devil knows you're dead. Of course, for this to work you have to die, so that's not great, but still . . .

I'm just hoping I don't get an Irish-style beatdown.  They take St. Pat's way too seriously out here (the college students get the day off, fer gawds sake), and I have a habit of bad-mouthing this particular "holiday."







But I wore my green All-Stars anayway.

Slainte!

Irish-style beatdowns are what St. Patrick's Day (not fuck*ng St. PADDY'S Day) are all about.

You could alternately read some Irish Poetry.

Shouldn't they get off for the day after?

Actually, they're on "spring recess" right now, which is basically a four-day weekend for no good reason.

I'm wearing a green shirt that I had to febreeze because the last time I wore it, I stood in an English giraffe and chips shop for 30 minutes and so I smelled like I had been deep fried, Mars bar stylezzzz, and my Pogues shirt underneath. I'm feeling the Irish Prydeeee.

I wore my Lyle's "enjoy any time" Achewater shirt yesterday, because I got it in charcoal, not green. Today, I'm wearing an Urban Outfitters' shirt (green) which reads "I'm a drinker, not a fighter" around a white four-leaved shamrock.

I haven't been to work in a couple days. I'm ill, did I mention that?

Yesterday I wore a kilt.  There is no better way to get women to want to peek at your (my) junk.

I did not celebrate St Pat's day, as I am not Irish. However, on March 16th, I of course paid homage to the one and only St. Urho, who drove the grasshoppers from Finland.

We went to Benigan's for happy hour yesterday.  They played the Numa Numa song on the stereo there.  Because it's all Irish an' shit.

This is awesome. I don't understand why the original tale from 1956 talks about poisonous frogs, though. That is one righteous statue.
