I do have some shamrocks in the house if that redeems me in any way.

I would much prefer some good craft beer, but the keto program has me drinking green Michelob ultra. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...0e4b05e8c6.jpg
Oh, and it's my 5 year wedding anniversary today!
I too am feeling guilty. I just had a Red Stripe instead of a Guinness.
When is St. Patrick's Day?
Happy anniversary, Hurley.
Guess we know what you’ll be doing this evening.

I didn't even know it was today until about an hour ago.
Usually when they're sober enough to attend mass.Quote:

All the beer in my fridge right now comes in a green can. So you know it's pretty close to swill.
The only day of the year the Irish celebrate the life of a Brit.
Erin Go Braless you drunk Paddies!

Nice.
I always knew I was at least 25% Irish, but not sure how much more. I've always been proud of my Irish heritage.
My wife is adopted so we don't know her genetic heritage at all. Last weekend, my daughter came over and showed me the results of a DNA test she received (she'd apparently researched to find the best/most accurate service out there). Her results came back 52.3% Irish.
Now, as an "Irishman", I'm a poor one as really the only potatoes I like are sliced into thin strips and fried (french fries) and while I did my share of drinking in my youth, I'm practically a non-drinker today (not so much of a taste for it). But, as any decent Irishman, I've got plenty of alcohol (including Irish Whiskey) in storage - just in case.
When my mother-in-law was still alive, she was a devout Southern Baptist who despised alcohol. I earned endless lectures from her after telling her that when I die I want a good old fashioned Irish wake. I want those who loved me to celebrate my life, not mourn me, and those who didn't so much care for me to celebrate the fact that I'm gone. So, when I'm gone folks, raise a toast to me - whether it's in my honor or the joy of my passing. Drink up boyo's; drink up!
Not to poop on your party, but how can they be so sure that it's "Irish"? I figured they'd fall on Celtic, since there's so much intermingling between Ireland, Scotland, and Wales.
They can't, but Irish is just so much cooler. [Beer]Quote:

I've been able to trace back my paternal grandmothers family (with birth records..mothers and fathers of mothers and fathers..) in Ireland several hundreds of years which is how I know I'm at least 25%.Quote:

We've been working on our family trees, and it's actually kind of crazy how my wife can find information going back hundreds of years in Holland and I have a much tougher problem here in the US.
My family heritage is Scottish, but we can pretend on St. Patrick's day. Scots were the Irish that could swim.
