Do you have TREMENDOUS plans for St. Patty's day?!

[LaraMN]

Thus far I have this:

Apply glittery fake shamrock tattoo to selected part of body.

That's it.
I'm planning to build on that, though. probably.
How about you?

[deadparrot]

1. Parade day!

Gotta say, though, not that I'm not an Irish dancer anymore, the holiday has suddenly become exponentially more enjoyable. :D

[MissB]

2. Celebrating an anniversary with some friends.

St. Paddys day doesn't really work into the plans, though.

[LeftyMom]

3. I plan to celebrate my birthday.

That's it, really.

[LaraMN]

6. Yay! Are you going out?

:bounce:

[LeftyMom]

9. I may the following day.

I don't think I can get a sitter for friday.

[hunter]

4. Our bishop said we can eat corned beef and cabbage.

I'm gonna do that.

And I'll give up hunting, at least for the day.

[jpgray]

5. I'm scheduled as the food runner.

The -food runner-. They'd have to invent a place on the barrel lower than the bottom to describe that in the server hierarchy.

[laheina]

7. 4.2 days, and counting!!

Maybe a Guinness at Reagan's (local pub.)

But anything glittery doesn't sound bad :)

[LaraMN]

8. Yeah, I like glittery!

:bounce:

(although not in the context Matcom would favor.)

[laheina]

17. How's that? nt

[KitchenWitch]

10. As a Pagan, I am ambivalent about celebrating a holiday

for a person whom is credited with driving the Pagans out of Ireland.

[crispini]

12. I thought it was snakes.

Really?

[KitchenWitch]

14. snakes is a euphemism for Pagans.

[Deja Q]

11. Staying home and laughing at all the fools drinking green piss...

oops, green beer...

And crying for the folks out there getting turned into prime roadkill...

[Spider Jerusalem]

13. I plan on NOT drinking any green beer.

I also plan on not eating any corned beef, and not wearing anything green. I also plan on punching anyone who tries to pinch me (I'm an eighth Irish; I don't need to be fucked with by people who think Saint Patrick's Day is an excuse to get drunk). If I celebrate at all it's going to be with a couple of pints of Guinness and maybe a Jameson's or two.

[EstimatedProphet]

15. I'd like to go hit a bar for some green beer

But our plans are day to day right now.

[LynzM]

16. I'm getting a haircut....

After that, who knows, anything could happen ;)

[Missy Vixen]

18. I toast my parents on St. Patrick's Day

My mother was Irish so I'll be wearing green. I also try to find the weirdest place that has Guinness. This year's contender is the Mexican restaurant in our town. We will then drive home at a remarkably early hour.

19. Yes, I'm taking the puppy to the pound!

For his first ever puppy class! :bounce:

20. Not that I know of

I usually do invest in some Guinness around this time of year, but I don't know if I'll have any corned beef and cabbage. I'll eat corned beef, but it's definitely not my most favorite food product. And I definitely can't see wearing any green, if only because I think I look hideous in green. My excuse for not wearing green is that I'm Irish everyday, not just on St. Patrick's Day, so what's the big deal about wearing green on one day of the year? (Confession: I'm only actually half-Irish :) )

[politicat]

21. There's a Whiskey tasting at our favorite coffee/wine house.

(It's coffee in the mornings, and wine and fine liquor and coffee at night.) I don't like Whiskey, but DH does, and so do a lot of his/our friends, so we'll probably go there.

Otherwise, once again, I will be protesting the celebration of the destruction of an indigenous culture by religious monomaniacs by painting myself with blue snakes.

(No, I'm not wearing green. I'm not Catholic anymore. And I'm not Protestant, because that would mean admitting that Ian Paisley has an iota of sense about him. I'm not pagan, either, but I find pagans more tolerant than either of the above.)

[KitchenWitch]

22. I like the blue snakes idea!

[politicat]

25. Thanks!

Been doing it for a few years now.

I'd get them tattoo'ed on, but I'm a blood donor and O Pos, so I'd rather not get a tattoo and have to take a year off. People who donate blood adapt to it, and if I don't donate every 75 days or so, my blood viscosity goes WAY up and my blood pressure spikes.

24. Ian Paisley = The Irish Fred Phelps

Anybody agree with me on that?

[politicat]

26. I'm not quite sure, but I think F. Phelps looks a little saner...

Paisley is one crazy bastard, and that is an insult to all the crazy bastards every born, from Attila the Hun, William the Conqueror on up through Ghengis Khan and Napoleon.

23. Throwing a big party at my place...all of DU is invited.....

Plenty of beer, ham and cabbage, and beer too.....did I mention there would be beer? We will also have ham and cabbage ( as well as kielbasa from a place two doors down from us that ROCKS ). Come one and all

[fizzgig]

27. i'll be celebrating however the germans do it

[emmajane67]

28. Flying to Dublin for the day!!!
