I apologize for responding to Plastic Paddy comments on Mick's inspiration thread. But this is St. Patrick's Day..the most happy day of the year for us. Not Easter..Christ just died on the cross. Not Christmas. Don't get too happy..he is going to die on the cross. Not Halloween..it is really the day before the day before all the souls you prayed enough for get out of purgatory. Only St. Patrick's day was 100% fun. Lent was abolished for the day. There was music and there was ice cream with shamrocks in it. The priests and nuns were happy and the nuns would dance little jigs.

Now each and every year I know someone is going to call us Plastic Paddys. They just did. Refer to above thread. It is not a nice phrase. It is insulting. It is demeaning. It is unnecessary. Let people have fun and don't call them (us) names. mg
