Top of the morning to you! Sounds like great fun and I hope you have a good time. I remember about fifteen years when Irish pubs became all the rage in England and St.Patricks became a social event for nearly everyone. It is sad to say that if we, the English did the same for St.George's day the equality police would be jumping up and down. Miles Ms FLINN!

Now here is a holiday I hadn't heard of. Must go to the store immediately to find a card to send to someone!!! Of course, one of our BIG holidays is just around the corner. Why its St. Patrick's Day, of course. Here in Ireland West, we celebrate this day in big ways with parades, dressing in green, and, my opersonal favorite, dyeing the river around Chicago green!!! There will be drunken celebrations in every bar and pub for miles around. Guiness will flow, Bushmill's will be "thrown back (as in "throw back"/drink a bottle of beer)," and the bottoms of those who forgot to wear green will be pinched. Corned beef and cabbage will be on many menus. Everyone will try to sport an Irish accent, and even the Hispanics among us will claim Irish ancestry. Such a great day!!! Annie FLINN Wow!
