Erin Go Braugh

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Even if you're not Irish, everyone is Irish today. Even stormtroopers can get their Irish on.

The Irish tradition of a céilidh, was a social gathering of any sort, and did not necessarily involve dancing which can be included today. The 'ceilidh' is a literary entertainment where stories and tales, poems and ballads, are rehearsed and recited, and songs are sung, conundrums are put, proverbs are quoted, and many other literary matters are related and discussed.

So a little céilidh for OMG. Ireland has given the world some of the greatest literature, great musicians, great actors and directors, and some great movies, not mention Guinness and great whiskey.

So what are some of you favorite gifts that Ireland has given? Favorite Irish writer or poet? Irish literature? Irish musician? Movie? Traditions? Oh the dancing. You're on your own. Same goes for the Guinness.


Jake and Austin ?
Well you know rainbows and lucky charms are the easy go-to for today.



So going for the pot of gold and picking the Blarney Stone.

All Austin's waterskiing and Jake's parkour (did you think I was going to say yoga?) they shouldn't have a problem with the flexibility needed to kiss their "favorite" Blarney Stone. But do they get the gift of gab from theirs and say something like Pogue Mahone?

You all should be ashamed. ; )


“For each petal on the shamrock this brings a wish your way.
Good health, good luck, and happiness for today and every day.”
