Saint Patric's Day

[BSBPaul]

What are everyone's plans for st. patties day? and do you think its just another excuse to get drunk or a "real" holiday

 

[lovelumps]

Don't do much to celebrate it. Was supposed to get inked again but I had to reschedule. Kids and their sports and fake blizzards... *sigh*

Oh, and it's a real holiday! All the Irishmen I know will tell you that!

It is Saint Patrick's day and it is on March 17th.

Yea - St Paddies day is a definite holiday and yes, it is an excuse to get drunk . Somewhat similar to the Italian Tarantula dance. Supposedly, if you were bitten by a spider, you were supposed to drink copious amounts of wine while doing this strenuous dance which would then purge the system of spider toxin. No spiders in Ireland that I know of so green beer is something just to get drunk on. By the way, did you hear about the Irishman who bought a pair of water skis and went looking for a lake with a slope?
LOL
PS I get upset that All you see on St Paddies day is green - I would like to see equal opportunity with Orange(I side with the Orangemen) Why not Orange Beer?

We haven't had a good snow in a long time. Not that I'm really complaining. All I really want is a school snow day! That's the best part of being an educator! And I love having my kids as a captive audience. We get to watch all our favorite movies, like The Mummy, and Men in Black. Snow days are awesome. Haven't had one in a while.... (lament lament lament)

There is a big parade and people go nuts. I guess......like in most places.
Come check SF out sometime.

You guys suck. MN got like 6-8 inches of snow yesterday, with temperatures in the teens and below. I'm freezing my pretty little patootie off here, and lovelumps thinks snow days are awesome! I beg to differ, my dear. LOL. I'm not-so-patiently waiting for spring to hurry its butt up!
