Happy ST. Patrick’s day & EASTER !

MMMMMMMMMmmmmmm

Green Beer!

Thats not till tomorrow and ive never drunk green beer, thats just you crazy Americans! lol

Yes, St. Patrick's day is on the 17th.

And sure, green is the colour.

I won't be drinking green beer, but I will most likely be drinking copius amounts of regular beer.

It's great seeing the whole world celebrate St. Patricks Day as if they were Irish.

Regular beer shall be had by the barrelfull!! Green beer definitely no, see my my earlier post as to why.

It's a small world indeed.

I've lost the Irish brouge, though.

Same to you =]

I'm a newcomer. But....Happy to you

Most of you guys don't know, but Missouri University of Science and Technology (formerly UMR) has the largest St. Pats celebration in the midwest. Students here (I'm a former student and now faculty member) get Thursday and Friday off, and parties are going on every night. There is Beer For Breakfast at some location every morning of the St. Pats Week, and it is quite common for students to show up to class drunk, and some are even drinking during class (not in original containers of course). I've also known a professor or 2 to bring in enhanced coffee.

The Associated Press came down and did a story about it over the weekend, you can find their article here: http://www.bnd.com/336/story/282100.html
