Hello All Do you wear green on St Patrick's Day? If so is it because you are Irish? Do you celebrate it or just celebrate cause your friends are? Have you or will you drink green beer? Tellme yr St Paddy story. Any good ones? Thanks R

I'm part Irish - I still have cousins in Ireland, my great grandmother was from there. But the NAME family is Irishiese-Scot. Funny thing - 6 of my 8 great grand parents are imigrants, & both of my parent's names come down from early days in the Americas. One came to settle in New Amsterdam & the other came with William Penn - my cousin has even taken the family back to the Mayflower.
