Heads up, if you seen an FBI (Full Blooded Irish) in town tomorrow wearing the green, buy him a drink or three. For the Brits wearing orange, shame on you. In advance, "Happy St. Patrick's Day". Erin go Braugh. Mick and Paddy were walking in Covent Garden in London. It was their first week in the capital and they were a bit naïve. 'Lord above Paddy, this is a great city,' says Mick. 'Why's that Mick?' responds Paddy. 'Well, to be sure,' explains Mick, 'where else in the world would a complete stranger come up to you, make idle chat, invite you to dinner and then offer you to spend the night at their house?' 'Begorrah, ' splutters Paddy, 'did that happen to you?' 'No,' says Mick, 'but it happens to my beautiful sister all the time.'
Let's see...the Irish wear green to show they are Irish. The Brits wear Orange to show their opposition to the Irish. What do we Americans who don't care wear? Nothing?
Heard the other day that a school in US has changed ST. Patricks Day to Green Day ..... Something about "Saint" in the name and how it would offend those that don't believe in god. WoW ! Seem's to me that folks are a little thin skinned these's day's.
Yeah,you should hear the new name for the following cities: St Louis is now just "Louie" San Francisco is now "Frank" Santa Clara is now "Clara" San Bernardino is now "Benny" St Paul is "that place near Minneapolis" But I bet that school,which objected to the same "Saint" in the name of a holiday is closed for Christmas... And I, being Jewish, don't care what you call it.
