I wanted to share with you the traditional Celtic stained glass window I have designed to celebrate this holy day that is upon us. Happy St. Paddy's day! ![][1] [1]: http://media.lawrence.com/img/blogs/maggs/stpatty07.jpg

Bastard. The monkey was almost asleep, before I started cackling.

Happy St. Paddy's day to you Maggie! I'll miss you all down at the Pig, then I'll miss you at the Replay, and then probably back at the Pig. However, I do plan on getting down with the amazing large population of Irish here in Israel; there are probably at least two or three Irishmen in the country, and I'll do my best to find them.

GK$! When you come home, we can watch Leprechaun together while slugging down a bottle of Powers. You needn't miss a thing; you know it's always St. Paddy's Day in me heart.
LOVE!

Caide mille failte! Cool graphic!
But I must object to this shameless annual parody of my national heritage. If this continues, I'll be forced to take up a broadsword, paint my entire body blue, compose several epic poems--lilting, but w/ an undercurrent of bitter doom--and launch a hopeless attack against the British.
Following the hopeless attack, there will be a party at the BP.

Poor, Quinno.
Would a Shamrock Shake make you feel better?
Thar magickly delishus!

This reminds me of a conversation you and I had years ago (oh, this is Sarah, btw, not Frank- he's logged in and I can't remember my password):
Sarah: I am so over Samuel Jackson.
Maggie: I am so over being over Samuel Jackson.
Happy St. Pat's. I miss you and I'm terribly sad that I don't get to watch Leprechaun with you this year.

Rah, next time we are together, be it in KS or NY (or GB), I say we have a Leprechaun/Gremlins marathon during which we will exchange xmas gifts containing Irish beer and whiskey.
We gotta make each visit count!
Tell New York to have a grand SPD for me!

Hey, Patrick,
It's cead mile fáilte, by the way, and it means "a hundred thousand welcomes." I think you meant "go raibh mile maith agat" (i.e., thanks a bunch). And I think only the Picts and Mel Gibson as Braveheart painted themselves blue. The Celts, however, did enjoy beheading people, so you have that going for you. But of course you knew that.
Tough to know how to celebrate. Should I buy a sprig of shamrock and go to church like they do in the west of Ireland, or should I buy a green-and-white Dr Seuss hat, get ***-faced drunk, and shout slurs at gay people like they do in New York? Maybe I'll just buy a bottle of the new Irish Spring body wash and hope tiny German bar wenches with cheesy Oirish accents pop out of the top and giggle like they do in the commercial.
Lá fheile Pádraig shona daoibh, everyone!

Not only a national parody of our heritage, but also the faith of my fathers. I don't know why I haven't sued something. Hangover shite, most likely.
I got your leprechaun right here.
