We were talking about this hilarious song on Folkchat. It's "The Saint Patrick's Day Song" by the Celtic rock band Finn MacCool. ENjoy! Lyrics are right here!

Interesting - I know a song an Irishman inventing the submarine (The Great Fenian Ram) but I hadn't heard the claims to inventing the Csection or Halloween - any songs for those feats, anyone? I thought the Csection was invented by the Romans... which is where the C part comes in. Historians, boasters, anyone?

regarding c sections, see the Death of Queen Jane (it's in the Digitrad database)

I did, and although she REQUESTED a Csection she didn't get one... so was it hers the first idea or had she heard of someone else having one? I quote here from the database: "She died twelve days after the birth, which was not a Caesarean."

Gee, I was hoping there would be some mention of Mr. Patrick being removed from the roster of saints of the Roman Catholic Church in 1962. It seems there could be a lot of fun with that. I know my brother, a Knights of Columbus, was crestfallen when he found out he had not been protected by Mr. Christopher who was removed at the same time.

I didn't know about Patrick being decanonized! I did know about Christopher, and also the FFTKAT that St. Sebastian survived the arrows and died later of unrelated causes.
