Always loved green beer day, followed by green gills day. Enjoy the day you 'snake chasers'. Gotta love 'em...the one day a year the Irish have that same feeling of omnipotence that Texans have all year around. :roll:

Can't pass up the day without my favorite Irish riddle: How many Irishmen does it take to screw in a light bulb? 25! One to hold the bulb and 24 to keep drinking until the room spins. :wink: :lol: :lol:

Oh thanks UB!! Scottish (& Indian) on my mother's side: Carr & Campbell.

Irish on my father's side-his mother came over from Ireland. This was his FAVORITE holiday. He'd be at the Howrigan's today having a traditional St. Paddy's Day feast.

May the Road Rise Up To Meet Ya Regards-

St. Pat's

corned beef's a cookin and cold beer is within arm's reach.
May misfortune follow you all of the days of your life . . . . and never catch up.

May you live as long as the beard on Patty McGhinty's goat -- first FT dog was Shawnric's Patrick McGhinty -- Pat for short -- here's to St. Patty's Day -- although I'll be staying away from the green beer (no real Irishman would drink green beer) -- but I might have a Guiness in remembrance of my first dog -- my Dad's family is originally from Sligo -- his current YLF was born today; she's called Kelly -- Happy Birthday Kelly

Wouldn't be St Paddy's day without an Irish joke.

An Irishman, an Englishman and a beautiful girl are riding together in a train, with the beautiful girl in the middle.The train goes through a tunnel and it gets completely dark. Suddenly there is a kissing sound and then a slap!

The train comes out of the tunnel. The woman and the Irishman are sitting there looking perplexed. The Englishman is bent over holding his face which is red from an apparent slap.

The Englishman is thinking "Damn it, that Mick must have tried to kiss the girl, she thought it was me and slapped me."

The girl is thinking, "That Englishman must have moved to kiss me, and kissed the Irishman instead and got slapped."

The Irishman is thinking, "If this train goes through another tunnel, I could make another kissing sound and slap that Englishman again!!

More Green Beer Regards

O'Grady sent me this note about his uncle.

An Irishman arrived at J.F.K. Airport and wandered around the terminal with tears streaming down his cheeks. An airline employee asked him if he was already homesick.

"No," replied the Irishman "I've lost all me luggage!"

"How'd that happen?"

"The cork fell out!" said the Irishman.


UB...happy he stayed away from the 'green stuff' yesterday. Feels lots better this morning.
