History of St. Pat's Day



A 7th grade teacher of mine said there are 2 kinds of people in this world:
"The Irish, and those who wish they were Irish."
Before I came to North Carolina, I used to believe it was true.

You can always count on me to remember March 17.
(Did I mention my mother's maiden name was O'Bryan?)

Thanks Anon!
I love that song too, so much that I was tempted to run it again!

"Kiss Me, I'm Irish"
by Gaelic Storm

Such a sweet song, is it not?
