HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!!!
I hope you had a wonderful day of doing whatever it is that people do on St. Patrick's Day. Seriously, other than wearing green and getting really drunk, I don't know what the holiday is all about.
Despite my ignorance, people are living it up today in the name of an Englishman who, after suffering years of slavery in Ireland, escaped only to willingly go back years later to preach Christianity to his captors.
Do you think St. Patrick is looking down from heaven thinking, "What are they doing? I hated beer and the color green."While people are drinking green beer today, at one time, people could legally use much more potent stuff. This was the subject of last week's Funny Bone post. I supplied the following picture and asked my readers to come up with a slogan for this product.

I don't quite get St. Patrick's day, either. I imagine that we've completely bastardized it here in the States, though.
ReplyDeleteI love how that bottle says, 'skillfully combined with other ingredients.' If the those are the ingredients they listed, imagine what other things they poured into that bottle!
I don't have anything against it, but I have no idea how it turned into what it is today.
DeleteI kind of like Red's response. I bet that stuff would have worked fantastic on PMS.
ReplyDeleteWe should do some experiments. Maybe they should bring it back.
DeleteI didn't wear green yesterday and I didn't have a beer either. I guess it was just another day to me. Yep, that's it exactly.
ReplyDeleteHave a terrific day. :)
I was at work most the day, but they did serve corned beef and cabbage.
