Find a partner or grab your favorite beverage & listen to some Irish tunes .A couple of wave files - full-length, lilting, Irish melodies - they are so beautiful! I hope you can open them, or "save target as" to your hard drive and listen to them later.

Why Saint Patrick's Day?
Saint Patrick's Day has come to be associated with everything Irish: anything green and gold, shamrocks and luck. Most importantly, to those who celebrate its intended meaning, St. Patrick's Day is a traditional day for spiritual renewal and offering prayers for missionaries worldwide.
So, why is it celebrated on March 17th? One theory is that that is the day that St. Patrick died. Since the holiday began in Ireland, it is believed that as the Irish spread out around the world, they took with them their history and celebrations. The biggest observance of all is, of course, in Ireland. With the exception of restaurants and pubs, almost all businesses close on March 17th. Being a religious holiday as well, many Irish attend mass, where March 17th is the traditional day for offering prayers for missionaries worldwide before the serious celebrating begins.
In American cities with a large Irish population, St. Patrick's Day is a very big deal. Big cities and small towns alike celebrate with parades, "wearing of the green," music and songs, Irish food and drink, and activities for kids such as crafts, coloring and games. Some communities even go so far as to dye rivers or streams green!

Just checking in real quick. I might have some sad news though, it is possible I might lose Greystone, one of my cats, to kidney failure unless a miracle happens. B-( He's not even 5 years old yet. B-((

Yeah, Thanks, Mom and I just said a prayer for him. We are keeping him hospitalized for a few days hoping for a miracle. His brother, GW (Dubya) is walking around looking for him as well as his mother (Spunky) and sister (Whitey), we have the whole family.
You can see my cats here:

Thanx. BTW, we are going to see Greystone again in a little bit, I do hope we can get him jumpstarted. We've been praying long and hard too. I do have some good news though, we are getting Pansy's hyperactive thyroid under control. A normal thyroid should be a 4 on whatever medical tests they run, well it came back a 5.6, a little above normal, it is a lot better than the 10.8 we've been getting, or the 12+ to where she was losing weight and going to bathroom in the livingroom corner. Still, I hope we can get Greystone out of the lurch, he is too young for this plus I don't want to be saying "Chuck, slave to 7 cats" for a long time to come.
