Happy St. Patrick's Day

In case you couldn't tell by my painfully pale skin and freckles, I'm 100% Irish. I'll celebrating the holiday by not-drinking a drop of alcohol. That's right-- I'm so Irish that I don't even like beer.

Anyhow, below are two Irish themed videos. First, a trailer for "Angela's Ashes", a really great (albeit depressing) film about depression era Ireland. If you haven't seen it, you really should. It's quite good.


Second is a live performance of "Big Strong Man" by The Wolfe Tones. It's a great song, and an even greater headband on the lead singer.



Let the rampant stereotypes of the Irish begin. Happy St. Patrick's Day.
