Lighten up, yourself. You're the one getting uptight because I don't really care about a holiday. You're now pissing on MY wheaties. I happen to ENJOY not liking St. Patrick's day, and if you can't accept that you are a hypocrite. STFU about it, will ya?

 

And it's spelled Francis, BTW.

an irish blessing for you.... :doh:

 

May the sound of happy music

And the lilt of Irish laughter

Fill your heart with gladness

That stays forever after.

one of my favorite stretches of the year, St. Pats Day, NCAA, and St. Josephs Day. Celebrate my Irish/Itallian/Cuse Heritage.

 

I began my St. Patrick's day celebration earlier this evening, and hope to carry it through for the next 36 hours or so.

 

Who else is pretending to be Irish?  :doh:

Why Paddy's Not At Work, Today

 

 

Dear boss I write this note, for to tell you of my plight,

And at the time of writing, I am not a pretty sight.

My body is all black and blue, my face a deathly gray.

And I write this note to say why Paddy's not at work, today.

 

While working on the fourteenth floor, some bricks I had to clear

For to throw them down from off the top, seemed like a good idea,

But the foreman he would not agree, he being an awful sod.

He said I'd have to cart them down the ladder in my hod.

 

Well, clearing all those bricks by hand, it seemed so very slow.

So I hoisted up a barrel and secured the rope below.

But in my haste to do the job, I was too blind to see

That a barrel full of building bricks is heavier than me.

 

So, when I untied the rope, of course, the barrel fell like lead

And clinging tightly to the rope, I started up instead.

I shot up like a rocket, and to my dismay I found,

That halfway up I met the bloody barrel coming down.

 

Well, the barrel broke my shoulder as towards the ground it sped

And when I reached the top I banged the pulley with my head.

I clung on tight, though numb with shock, from that almighty blow,

While the barrel spilled out half its bricks, some fourteen floors below.

 

Now, when the bricks had fallen from the barrel to the floor,

I then outweighed the barrel, so I started down once more.

Still clinging tightly to the rope I then raced towards the ground

And I landed on those broken bricks that lay scattered all around.

 

Well, as I lay there moaning, sure I though I'd passed the worst.

But when the barrel hit the top, 'twas when the bottom burst.

A shower of bricks rains down on me; I didn't have a hope.

And in the great confusion, I let go the bloody rope.

 

Well, the barrel now was heavier, and it started down once more

And it landed right on top of me, as I lay there on the floor.

It broke three ribs and my left arm and I can only say,

That I hope you understand why Paddy's not at work, today.

:doh:

Nah. I have nothing against the Irish. Why would I? Hell, if there was a Polish/Italian day named after some saint I probably wouldn't celebrate that, either.

 

I'm Polish & Italian, BTW. Imagine that - being Polish & Italian and born in Buffalo. How odd!

The Italians have St. Joesph's on Saturday (19th). And there's Columbus Day in October, too. The Poles have Dingus Day (Monday after Easter). I don't celebrate them, but I hardly think them to be useless.

 

Now, Cinco de Mayo is another story.... Tequilã!

No Irish in me, but I was in some Irish last night so I guess that counts. :doh:

 

Lunch today at the Down Under Pub & Grub--not Irish obviously but they will have corned beef & cabbage. Then tonight Guiness with whatever else I decide to have.

The thing that cracks me up about this holiday is most everyone sees it as a time to get justifiably drunk, and then act like it's the only chance we'll have all year to get justifiably drunk. Which is very disrespectful to New Years, Easter, Valentines Day, Sun Day, Groundhog Day, Mon Day, Secretary's Day, Tues Day, Hug Your Teacher Day, Wednes Day...

 

And Todd...please...stop pissing on people's parades, wouldcha? :doh:

I agree. I can get drunk any time I want. I don't need a special day to do it. Anyway, I can't help but piss if I drink too much beer.

I just had a St. Patty's day Doughnut from Krispy Kreme...

Chocolate dipped with green and white sprinkles...

 

A lame attempt to make us happy here....

Just think, for lunch you can get a Shamrock shake at McDonalds and you'll pretty much be set.
