Anyone have any St. Patty's day plans and/or traditions?

Not drink (per normal) and continue to be one-half Irish in descent?
Nah, really, if it's a weekday, work, if it's a weekend, hopefully game (but probably just more work).

Family tradition of purchasing and consuming the first bottle of hard liquor you lay eyes upon in a liquor store after walking a good ways into it, closing your eyes, and taking roughly seven steps in a circular pattern, provided the booze is over $4 and under $30.

One year I ended up with $5 whiskey. So much pain.

Maybe this year I'll luck out.

Good tradition, I have taken the day off from work this year, to wake up to Bailey's Coffee and Potato Pancakes, then drink the day away waiting for corned beef and cabbage.

As for plans, I made Guinness Cupcakes.

I'll be drinking diet soda and pitching rocks stuff over my fence at any drunks that stumble too close.

Took a final in mechanics today (i.e. stuff that moves in circles and stuff that moves fast) and get to study for two finals tomorrow...

Be sure to curse each shot before your drink it.  Rack up a Darkspiral Aura and a buzz mighty enough to rob the gods of their ability to see into the future.

That's because it's a blood filter and your alcohol is too gritty. You need to remove it, rinse it out, and then put it back so you can keep drinking.

The bottle is done. Bv

It reminds me a bit of medium quality vodka. Mostly neutral, really.

Also typing is very easy because it is all muscle memory, go figure.
