Then again they get to be Irish 365 days a year. Or is the 360 days? I always get days-in-a-year confused with degrees-in-a-circle.<br /><br />P.L.

He said he never ever had corned beef and cabbage before he came to America, although everyone assumes he is thrilled with this dinner choice. He also avoids the Southie parade because he said people in Ireland don't act like crazy, drunk fools. He said his family didn't have the money to do anything but go to church (it is a religious holiday after all) and see a small parade in Dublin.<br /><br />He didn't mention anything about leprechans though...Sharon G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02753796968184612225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7090354177947958136.post-24838360396077810842010-03-17T21:45:48.162-04:002010-03-17T21:45:48.162-04:00I actually haven't touched any booze in weeks....I actually haven't touched any booze in weeks.
