----------------------------------- md Thu Mar 17, 2005 8:09 pm Happy St. Patty's day! ----------------------------------- If your not drinking and your old enough to; get started! If your underage and have a fake; good on ya! If your underage and don't; WTF are you waiting for! Happy St. Patty's to all! ----------------------------------- Bacchus Thu Mar 17, 2005 8:34 pm ----------------------------------- lol, ill just take a swig from a bottle in my kitchen. and its St. Patrick's Day, not St. Patty's Day :P ----------------------------------- Martin Thu Mar 17, 2005 8:59 pm ----------------------------------- Work. I declare St. Pat's to be a two day celebration, and last until Friday. ----------------------------------- Mazer Thu Mar 17, 2005 9:07 pm ----------------------------------- So what's St. Patrick's Day about? ----------------------------------- Andy Thu Mar 17, 2005 9:23 pm ----------------------------------- its actually not illegal for minors to drink.. as long as they're not in public and have consent from their parents ----------------------------------- Bacchus Thu Mar 17, 2005 9:55 pm ----------------------------------- So what's St. Patrick's Day about?Beer accually isnt it the anniversary of St.Patrick ridding Ireland of snakes? ----------------------------------- md Thu Mar 17, 2005 11:50 pm ----------------------------------- Here i was thinking it was a four day weekend... ----------------------------------- McKenzie Fri Mar 18, 2005 12:52 am ----------------------------------- Now it's true that there are no snakes in Ireland, odds are there never were. St. Patrick being credited for driving all the snakes out of Ireland is a reference to him driving out all of the pagan practices. I believe that March 17 is actually his death. ----------------------------------- Bacchus Fri Mar 18, 2005 1:08 am ----------------------------------- o well, all i kno is that St.Patricks day is just another excuse for the Irish to drink lol, that and for everyone to act a little irish and drink too. ----------------------------------- McKenzie Fri Mar 18, 2005 1:20 am ----------------------------------- The green beer is a north american thing. In Ireland the land is green and the beer is black. Somehow In North America we drink green beer to celebrate St. Pattys day. I don't get it. ----------------------------------- Bacchus Fri Mar 18, 2005 9:37 am ----------------------------------- well they made the beer green in recognition of the Emerald Isle, thats also there are some green eggs and spam.. er ham ----------------------------------- md Fri Mar 18, 2005 10:16 am ----------------------------------- Actually, the experts couldn't agree on when St. patric died, so thye added the two dates together and voila! March 17 :) ----------------------------------- Martin Fri Mar 18, 2005 2:50 pm ----------------------------------- Which is why I think that this should last for a week or so, just so we can be more certain we celebrate his death. ----------------------------------- md Fri Mar 18, 2005 5:43 pm ----------------------------------- What an excelent idea! Although I think there might be supply problems... ----------------------------------- Martin Fri Mar 18, 2005 6:15 pm ----------------------------------- Not here there aren't. ;) ----------------------------------- Andy Sat Mar 19, 2005 12:05 pm ----------------------------------- o well, all i kno is that St.Patricks day is just another excuse for the Irish to drink lol, that and for everyone to act a little irish and drink too. the irish dont need an exuse to drink.. their 7 course meal is consisted of a six pack and a potato :roll: ----------------------------------- Bacchus Sat Mar 19, 2005 4:20 pm ----------------------------------- rofl, omg its funny cause its true lol
