jackofallgeeksHappy Saint Patrick's Day!
Being a quarter Irish, which is as much as I am anything and more than I am most things, I'm obligated to mention this. Unfortunately, it looks ike I won't really be able to do much of anything at all to celebrate. No corn beef and cabbage! *cries* I'm thinking I may just run down to Giant and get some Guiness and oven-bake dinner rolls and pretend to myself. Maybe cook a potatoe or two.
I don't even have anything green to wear! My Irish ancestors are rolling over in their beds in the DC Metro Area.

Date: 2005-03-17 04:42 pm (UTC)The colours of the Irish flag (Green and Orange with White in between) represent, in the common interpretation, the Catholics and the Protestants and the lasting Peace between them--i.e. Green is for the Catholics, Orange is for the Protestants, and White is for Peace.
Thus, Irish Catholics wear Green and Irish Protestants wear Orange.
