One source even says she protects brewers, so she's right up my alley. Word.
You have a lot of time on your hands.
Like I should talk. I just read the entire Wikipedia entry.

A requirement for sainthood.

A little on the thin side for me.

I was looking up a different thing and saw it... I couldn't remember St. Jude - patron saint of bachelors and lost causes. My mother got me a St. Jude medal once (nice of her, right?). Lost it, now married and couldn't think of who it was.

Her feast is celebrated on the 4th of December. I'm thinking whiskey lunch in honor of 'ol Barb.

My grandma told me to never worship idols. I could make an exception if she blessed my powder.
Where can we get our St. Barbara morale patches and window stickers?

I wouldn't care if she was Twiggy, in her prime. Standing on a DEAD Muslim, i'd marry her.

All I know is that I have a new holiday to celebrate. St. Barbara's day, the best day of the year that you won't remember!

Bite your tongue.
Encinitas is about a five hour drive from Santa Barbara.
