So Much Noise ...

1. Vomiting
2. Microphone feedback
3. Multiple babies crying
4. Scraping of train wheels
5. Seesaw squeaking
6. Violin
7. Flatulence
8. One baby crying
9. Soap opera argument
10. Electricity hum

IF YOU'RE NOT IRISH, HAVE ANOTHER DRINK & FAKE IT

Born in Britain, Patrick was kidnapped by Irish pirates at the age of 16 and enslaved in Ireland. For six miserable years he tended sheep on the cold hills of Ballymena. He finally escaped aboard a ship to France, which then was known as Gaul. There he studied for the priesthood and in 431 A.D. was named a bishop. The next year he was sent by the pope to teach the gospel to the people of Hibernia – the same wild Irish tribesmen who had kidnapped him as a boy. Patrick spent nearly 30 years trudging up and down the Emerald Isle, teaching Christianity.

The drinking part ... that ain't St. Pat. That's the wayward descendants ... teeheehee

HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!

Does green beer taste any different from regular beer?
Why doesn't it turn your mouth green like Slurpees do?
