I don't know if there's Irish people around here, or some Irish descendants, but anyway...

I can never keep my holidays straight, even the ones where I get a day off. Hell, I can barely remember my birthday!

Ahhh nooo . . . North Star's been at the Toilet Duck again. C'mon, North Star, repeat after me: "That would be an Ecumenical matter." NS: Drink! (That's my knowledge of Irish society and culture encapsulated in one post. Can't beat a good Guinness, though. )

(That's my knowledge of Irish society and culture encapsulated in one post. Can't beat a good Guinness, though. ) I'll be the first to second that!I'm only a 32nd Irish, but went to a bar after work yesterday with some of my coworkers for my St. Patrick's Day beer, and was very upset to find that they did not carry Guinness! My backup idea was shot down too, a Killian's Red. No Irish beer at a bar on St. Paddy's Day, how horrible! I had to settle for a Miller light.

I get the impression that pretty much everyone in England and America has some Irish or Scottish ancestry.
Randy buggers...

Didn't they have any Jameson's Irish whiskey? That stuff's very palatable. Prefer a (Scottish) Glenfiddich, but I'd go with the Jameson's.

THAT'S GREAT!!! I have to remember that one! ;D I do like a couple of American beers, but nothing beats a good Guinness, the official beer of Monday Night Football and Patriots games (at least wherever I go to watch them!) ;D

I like the beer my neighbor makes. Oh, and the beer I had in that Canadian pub... whatever it was called.
Stay the hell away from Miller, Bud, Lites, all that stuff.
Actually, I'm really more of a Sake drinker than anything else, though I am known to go for the plum wine occasionally.

As the lone Mick on this board, can I just say St Patrick's Day is, as we say in the Emerald Isle, a load of oul' sh1te!
May your glass be ever full. May the roof over your head be always strong. And may you be in heaven half an hour before the Divil knows you’re dead.
