Tomorrow is Saint Patrick's day. I'll give a cookie to anyone who can actually tell me the story behind this holiday! (not really, but you'll get major points anyways)

How come i've never even heard of this myth about the snakes and things. I always grew up knowing the whole (listen guys, heres the answer) he went and converted lots of pagans to catholosism. I'm not even irish *shrug*

Anyways i guessed and bragged about this to carly all day today, but i thought i'd make official here. Wee, first person to post something out of... what two? Woo i beat tasha XD.

*hugs the sam* there's your prize for knowing the story of St. Paddy's day, though to be perfectly honest, Tasha is just as right because even though it's a myth that he chased the snakes from Ireland with a particularly powerful sermon from the hills it IS what most people think of when they think of him so tasha... hug for you too!
