Yesterday I guess, for you folks over on the other side of the world. Do they do anything special for St. Patrick's Day where you live? In the US there are a few parades, but mostly we just wear green. When we were kids, people would say they'd pinch us if we didn't wear it, but I don't remember much actual pinching going on. I've heard green is the Catholic color though, and being Protestant I should really be wearing orange.

No, we don't. Some of us doesn't even know what it is.

But I'll hoist my green shamrock flag to the top and drink some beer to honor this great day with the "Dropkick Murphys" tuned to the limit.

I wonder, why can't it just be called "Saint Patrick's Night" for those who live on the other side of the globe?

I've got some Scotch-Irish somewhere back there. Does that count?

I like St. Patrick's Day because green is my favorite color.
