There's nothing wrong with having a sense of Irish pride on the day it's been acknowledged for the past X# of years.

So even if we all did miss it, there's nothing wrong with tossing back a Guiness and a corned beef dinner and a side of Irish Soda Bread today.

...It's also still being acknowledged in Ireland today as a day off.

hahahaha, I like the last point :-P That done makes it for me.

um, ireland still getting the day off is like the US getting MLK or president's day off, even though the traditional holiday is on a different day. check out the "monday holiday act" for reasons why.

and jenn...i'll stop bitching only when you toss back a Guinness and corned beef.

I've had Guinness before when I was in Ireland.

I also eat corned beef dinner like they're going out of style.

So stop bitching. :)

I don't see why this is such a big deal to everyone.

The Pope also recently added 'obscene wealth' to the list of deadly sins, among others. Sooo, fuck him.
