He died on March 17, 493 after 40 years of being a priest. Whoopdedo. Don't see why you put this thread here though... *moves to Off Topic*

I wore green today and I didn't even know it was St. Patricks Day.

I like to wear green that is barely noticed. That way, when people come up to me with a big grin on their face, they turn around halfway once they can actually see the green and are left dissapointed and all alone. Hahahaha! :devil:

I don't bother wearing green. I'm a gothic germ-a-phob so I can only wear black with latex gloves.

Abeguy 03-18-2004 11:12 AM

green is my favorite color actulley
I didn't really attach it to my irish roots till yesterday!
I also have red hair,
and play a shiny GOLD Tuba

I hope you all make such a big deal out of St. Georges day. Afterall, it was his nation who founded and formed your nation...

GrigtheSlig 03-19-2004 07:05 AM

I almost always wear green anyway... 'Tis my favorite color!

I wore my school uniform on Wednesday. Lucky me eh?

I wore a little green bird pin. It was wearing a bikini.

on Friday we had non-uniform at school, it might be because of that. I didnt wear any green though

As the Sober Irish Guy, i think i'd better post here.

Okay, St. Patrick may not have phsicaly removed snakes from Ireland, but when the landmass of ireland was connected with britain, there were probably snakes (adders) on both. Today, there are no native snakes in Ireland... coincidence?

Also, I don't think i was wearing green on Wednesday, but it's a public holiday here (the only other country which has it as a public holiday is somewhere in the caribian)

And for any American tourists, leprechauns (pronounced "lep-ri-cons") DO NOT EXIST!!! (I'm not kidding, some people think they're real!)
