March 17

i don't drink green beer
or believe in leprechauns
still ... erin go bragh!

Having spent four years in Boston evading the drunken advances of guys named "Sully" every time St. Patrick's Day rolled around, I've never really been a fan of the holiday as it's celebrated here in the U.S. (What's with the pinching, anyway??)

Nonetheless, Ireland has a fascinating history, and they continue to make some of the best music in the world, so I'll raise a pint of Guinness tonight in gratitude for all things Irish ... especially MaryPat O'Connor!

  1. I spent a St. Patty's Day in Ireland...and do you know what I hated about it there? The Ameicans! Seriously...soooo obnoxious.
