That Goat See person is the one who tried to hack into DS....he/she is also over at DV as goat see® •Registered• and has caused trouble messing up the threads....just my thoughts....

Goat See

And you say you are an academic?

Anyone who has actually read any of my posts here at DS (not academe, obviously) knows that I haven't even bothered to try and 'hack' DS, because their mods and site admins seem to have a clue... unlike the ones at DV. I respect people who have a clue.

And the only thing I have done in the last 2 weeks at DV that could be considered 'messing up the threads' is my long name, which slightly skews the table columns. And, if you had been reading my posts at DV, you would know that I tried to minimize that effect by shortening the name.

Thousands of years ago cats were worshipped.  They have not forgotten.

So what does this day actually mean to us?

Happy Friday.
For thou art with me; thy cream and thy sugar they comfort me
Thou preparest a carafe before me in the presence of Juan Valdez
Thou anointest my day with pep; my mug runneth over
Surely richness and taste shall follow me all the days of my life
And I will dwell in the house of coffee forever.

What does Paddy's day mean? Why beer & stout&c. I like to fill up on Murphy's Irish Stout (from the ould sod) and sing this traditional Irish folk song:


Denis Leary/Chris Phillips)

They come over here and they take all our land
They chop of our heads and they boil them in oil
Our children are leaving and we have no heads
We drink and we sing and we drink and we die

We have no heads, we have no heads

They come over here and they chop off our legs
They cut off our hands and put nails in our eyes
O'Grady is dead and O'Hanrahan's gone
We drink and we die and continue to drink

O'Hanrahan, no O'Hanrahan

They buried O'Neill down in Country Shillhame
The poor children crying a fe dee din de
Hin fle di din fle di din fle de din de
In hey bibble bibble hey bibble bibble hey fle bibble de

O'Hanrahan, no O'Hanrahan

We drink and we sing and we drink and we sing, hey!
We drink and we drive and we puke and we drink, hey!
We drink and we fight and we bleed and we cry, hey!
We puke and we smoke and we drink and we die, hey!

For me it means I get to wear a pretty green shirt, and listen to Irish music all day.  I like that.

St. Patricks Day.  I never tought much about it. I guess even if you are not Irish..or Catholic, you are welcome to drink your face off...like New Years, an excuse to drink. [/DIV]This green beer thing is only a North American thing. [/DIV]I seen the city of Chicago actually puts green die in their river today??[/DIV]I guess if its already a toxic waste river, what harm would that do?[/DIV][A href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Patrick%27s_Day"]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Patrick%27s_Day[/A]
