St. Patrick's Day

I've been to Ireland, and I think it a very nice place. In fact it is absolutely beautiful, and all the people I met were very nice and friendly. Most of my ancestors came from Wales or Scotland, both of which are Celtic, so maybe that is why I feel close to the Irish too.

I was in the supermarket in El Paso, Texas this morning. I was wearing a green pin stripe shirt. Looking around it seemed like somewhere between 5% and 10% of the people were wearing green...mostly the young kids and women/girls. Maybe that is normal for El Paso; I don't know.
