Remembering St. Patrick’s Day …and night
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Today is St. Paddy’s Day. Have fun but please don’t do dumb things that will result in things like jails, hospitals, waking up with circus carneys and / or small farm animals or persons whose gender is not immediately recognizable. You need to know, rather than be informed who kissed your Blarney Stone.
Why do something stupid and end up in jail wearing nothing but a Viking helmet and some green parsley over your unmentionables, the product of what you thought was a good idea ten green beers ago?
The fact is that you can still have a good time and wake up the next day not regretting anything or having to reintroduce yourself to someone who doesn’t quite look like what you remember some eleven green beers and two green shooters ago.
There is quite a lot of dignity left in actually remembering St. Paddy’s Day each year.
