I’m going out on a limb and say even fewer people celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, but the good news is those who do will be too drunk to care (or even notice).

I miss the olden days when everyone in the class gave out cards. Schools have probably been forbidden to allow that now because if someone doesn't get a card it can be emotionally traumatic. Unless they have "participation" valentine's day cards.

True that fewer people celebrate -they just do it a tad more heartily. Plus I live within driving distance of Boston, so there you go. I wonder if it is an important holiday in Ireland

Unless they have "participation" valentine's day cards. I'm of two minds about all these "participation" carp. On one hand, I can see it is necessary for those who have very easily damaged egos. And in my mind, kids nowadays have those sorts of egos. Then again I think "participation" awards, trophies, cards etc are not going to help a child learn how to make it in the adult world. Then again I am talking about a totally different world now than when I was in my twenties/thirties. Frankly, I'm surprised that we even have competitive sporting events or anything competitive anymore.
