Will Erin go Braless?



I'm going to a party where the host has brewed his own stout. 20 gallons. Yum. I'm bringing my bagpipes, too.

[geardaddy]

1. What? No one is doing anything?

Sheesh.

[HappyMe]

3. We have a party to go to tonight.

Me darlin has to work tomorrow, so no plans.

[geardaddy]

4. Aw, that sucks.

[Rambis]

5. Lost a bit of its luster

No Guinness No soda bread- Coeliac diagnosis has sucked the life out of it- To be fair I miss malt vinegar more than anything Sunday morning FA cup match will lift the spirits I hope- Come on you mighty reds!

[geardaddy]

6. Sorry to hear it Rambis.

Are you a Scouser?

[Rambis]

7. Thanks

Just a fan who got a short waive radio back 1978-79. I used to get the matches from south africa via the BBC- I was a glory hunter before I knew what a glory hunter was

[ohiosmith]

2. The corned beef and cabbage is in the slow cooker. Going to a friends place tomorrow night

for a Paddy Party.

[geardaddy]

11. Yummers!

[bluedigger]

8. Nothing specific, but I'm pretty sure drinking will be involved.

[geardaddy]

29. As it should be.

Guinness? Harp? Smithwick's?

Jameson? Bushmills?

[Wait Wut]

9. This will be the first St. Pat's in 7 years...

...that I'll be able to spend with my son!!! It will also be the first St. Pat's with my DIL. She bought a St. Pat's t-shirt and we've painted our nails matching orange. I also bought her one of those silly plastic hats with all the glitter. She loves American holidays more than I do! She looks like a little Japanese leprechaun.

We'll start off with corned beef/cabbage and potatoes, then offta hear some friends bands play downtown...if that damned storm doesn't dump a foot of snow on my head.

[geardaddy]

10. That's great WW.

Sounds like a great time!

[fizzgig]

12. i work until five or so

hoping that a reasonable number of my employees show up

[ceile]

13. Going to see The Cult

Free show at SXSW. Can't wait!!

[geardaddy]

14. Oh man, I want to go to SXSW someday.

It sounds like a blast.

[ceile]

17. Meh.

It was back in the day. Now it's just too crowded, too expensive. Even if you buy wristbands you're still not guaranteed entry to all shows...BUT there are always some amazing free shows, showcases of new talent, and "off the books" shows- that's the fun stuff!

[dana_b]

26. yes!! that's a great way to spend it

I'd go see Tom Morello too if I was there.

[HopeHoops]

15. Stay home and play "hide the bagpipe".

[geardaddy]

19. You've got five "pipes"?

wow. lol

[HopeHoops]

24. No, man - the whole damn instrument!

I've always had a very low tolerance for exposure to them. It sounds like two doesn't cats in heat in the back of a Yugo or something. Just not my bag of weed if you know what I mean.

[geardaddy]

27. Well, as a piper, I'm officially offended.

lol

Not really, I know that people either love or hate them.

[HopeHoops]

30. I still think "dueling bedsprings" is he best thing to play.

[whistler162]

16. Well Pinkie.....

the samething we do every night! Try to take over the world.

[geardaddy]

22. I loved that show.

And Bananaman.

[Iggo]

18. Staying off the roads.

[geardaddy]

21. Probably a good idea.

[charlie and algernon]

20. most likely going to a party in the evening

should be fun!

[geardaddy]

23. Have a great time!

[charlie and algernon]

25. Thanks!

I'm not so much looking forward to the party as I am to be going with a girl I've been seeing. She invited me to go along with her.

[geardaddy]

28. Fun!

Well, then have an extra good time.

[name not needed]

31. Michael Collins Single Malt

The rest will figure itself out.

[geardaddy]

32. Sounds excellent.

[a kennedy]

33. Smithwick's.......it's the only ale for me....

It dates back to the fourteenth century.....now that's old. Love it.

[geardaddy]

34. And I know you must know how to pronounce it properly.

[a kennedy]

35. D*mn right I do.....

and it's the only Irish ale I'll drink. Yummmmmmmmm

[tabbycat31]

36. the parade was 2 weeks ago

Followed that with some corned beef and cabbage at Kelly's Tavern.

I haven't had green beer yet this year. MMMM green beer.

[Grantuspeace]

37. Getting my Irish up.

<ducking in fear of another jury decision > I am actually 1/2 Irish. But I'm not gonna tell you which 1/2.

[mikeSchmuckabee]

38. POWER'S AND CRAIC!

and hopefully no hurling.

[Throd]

39. Bushmill's

[Eyerish]

40. Staying home and making colcannon and sausages

and soda bread

Going to watch The Commitments and Waking Ned Devine tomorrow.

Have you tried 2gingers??

[geardaddy]

41. I haven't yet.

Is it good?

I may have to go down to The Local to try some.

[Eyerish]

43. It's excellent....

We got a bottle for Thanksgiving and everyone thought it was smooth but had quite the kick. I'm not the biggest whiskey drinker but I really enjoyed it. Sláinte!

[bigwillq]

42. Working.

Then maybe going out, but not because it's St. Patrick's Day. I'll probably get out of work early, which is rare, so going to go and enjoy it!
