Well, its coming round to that time of the year again,when that small insignificant dot off the European coast becomes the focus of all the world, just for the day, but thats ok. Our finest asset has been exported around the world, sometimes thru choice, more often not,but its the day we put everything to one side and celebrate who and what we are,being Irish, and invite everyone to the party.
Tell me how, if atoll, you celebrate Saint Patricks Day.
Pics next week would be very appreciated.

I don't celebrate Saint Patricks Day.

corned beef & cabbage, going to church, then finding a cute lil redheaded girl and making her see God:D

Killians Red, by the gallon

Plenty of Irish jokes, wearing green for the day, Harp beer, maybe some Killians, nursing a bad head the next 2 days...it's tough to be Irish, but nobody else is up to the task.

Personally, I settle for driving all the snakes out of my house in honor of the saint.

I always look spiffy on this special day--wear a long black skirt and emerald green shirt, with my emerald earings and necklace, and green socks to go with my black pumps for a final, devastatingly fashionable touch.

I'm Irish/Italian....wow, what a combo! I've been told it's a lethal combination. Is it really? Hmm...:matrix: :drinktoth

drinking

This paddys day will probably be the last one we can celebrate and we should do it on tara hill!

Interested seeing her for the last time before she is gutted by a motorway?

Tell me how, if atoll, you celebrate Saint Patricks Day.

Well nothing really hon so, I'll post a few Irish jokes here for everyone who has a wee bit of the blood in them...

Paddy was driving down the street in a sweat because he had an important meeting and couldn't find a parking place. Looking up to heaven he said, "Lord take pity on me. If you find me a parking place I will go to Mass every Sunday for the rest of me life and give up me Irish Whiskey!"

Miraculously, a parking place appeared.

Paddy looked up again and said, "Never mind, I found one."




Father Murphy walks into a pub in Donegal, and says to the first man he meets, "Do you want to go to heaven?"

The man said, "I do, Father."

The priest said, "Then stand over there against the wall."

Then the priest asked the second man, "Do you want to go to heaven?"

"Certainly, Father," was the man's reply.

"Then stand over there against the wall," said the priest.

Then Father Murphy walked up to O'Toole and said, "Do you want to go to heaven?"

O'Toole said, "No, I don't Father."

The priest said, "I don't believe this. You mean to tell me that when you die you don't want to go to heaven?"

O'Toole said, "Oh, when I die, yes I thought you were getting a group together to go right now."





Gallagher opened the morning newspaper and was dumbfounded to read in the obituary column that he had died. He quickly phoned his best friend, Finney.

"Did you see the paper?" asked Gallagher. "They say I died!!"

"Yes, I saw it!" replied Finney. "Where are ye callin' from?"



An Irish priest is driving down to New York and gets stopped for speeding in Connecticut . The state trooper smells alcohol on the priest's breath and then sees an empty wine bottle on the floor of the car.

He says, "Sir, have you been drinking?"

"Just water," says the priest.

The trooper says, "Then why do I smell wine?"

The priest looks at the bottle and says, "Good Lord! He's done it again!"





Walking into the bar, Mike said to Charlie the bartender, "Pour me a stiff one - just had another fight with the little woman."

"Oh yeah?" said Charlie, "And how did this one end?"

"When it was over," Mike replied, "She came to me on her hands and knees.

"Really," said Charles, "Now that's a switch! What did she say?"

She said, "Come out from under the bed, you little shit."





Flynn staggered home very late after another evening with his drinking buddy, Paddy. He took off his shoes to avoid waking his wife, Mary.

He tiptoed as quietly as he could toward the stairs leading to their upstairs bedroom, but misjudged the bottom step. As he caught himself by grabbing the banister, his body swung around and he landed heavily on his rump. A whiskey bottle in each back pocket broke and made the landing especially painful.

Managing not to yell, Flynn sprung up, pulled down his pants, and looked in the hall mirror to see that his butt cheeks were cut and bleeding. He managed to quietly find a full box of Band-Aids and began putting a Band-Aid as best he could on each place he saw blood.

He then hid the now almost empty Band-Aid box and shuffled and stumbled his way to bed.
In the morning, Flynn woke up with searing pain in both his head and butt and Mary staring at him from across the room.

She said, "You were drunk again last night weren't you?"

Flynn said, "Why you say such a mean thing?"

"Well," Mary said, "it could be the open front door, it could be the broken glass at the bottom of the stairs, it could be the drops of blood trailing through the house, it could be your bloodshot eyes, but mostly.....it's all those Band-Aids stuck on the hall mirror.

thanks Sal

Aye, 'tis a shame that I chose this particular week to give up drinking beer.
:(

Haha, no. I don't drink anything green.
Oddly enough, I had moonshine in NY and haven't had any here. I've been driving around the mountains hoping to find a still, so far no luck. :(
The time I had it, it ate a hole right thru the bottom of the paper cup. I was like...wtf? I was forced to drink faster.

Thanks Sal, Im not doing anything to overdo it anyway, I was considering making a doll of the truck driver and sticking needles in it, but he's probably that far gone by now he wouldnt notice.
As for the tax, do what I do, lie thru my teeth about what I earn.

For the record.
Broke at 21:47 went and bought a 12 pack of Harp and some ciggies.

Ahh Shane McGowan. The most Irish Englishman I ever saw.

U2 isn't a surprise, but it should have been "One"

I like sunday bloody sunday, 'one' Im trying to picture it in my head.

Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you now
You got someone to blame
You say...

One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you baby if you
Don't care for it

Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's...

Too late
Tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other
One...
Have you come here for forgiveness
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head

Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
Well we
Hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt
One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other

One...life

One
