Beannachtai na Feile Padraig / Happy Saint Patrick's Day

Please enjoy St. Patrick's Day responsibly!
Don't do stuff the native Irish wouldn't, like:
- Dye beer green (even if it is crap beer and good for nothing else)
- Exclude fellow Irish people from parades because of their sexual orientation (or, for that matter, their religious or cultural ones. Hey, we let all you guys be Irish today. Extend the same courtesy to your neighbors. We do.)
- Get all political on each other (today)
The Saint wouldn't like it.
Please try doing some things that lots of the native Irish are doing this weekend, such as...
- Following the fortunes of Irish horses and jockeys at the Cheltenham Festival
- Watching the Dublin St. Patrick's Day parade live on Ireland's national broadcaster, RTÉ (or on their website as live streaming video)
- Going to the pub and having a good time with friends and neighbors, without necessarily getting utterly stocious
- Immediately afterwards, cheering on the Irish rugby team, which just might win the Six Nations Cup on Saturday if we get lucky
Make Saint Patrick proud of you!
