Monday is St. Patrick’s Day and the Irish in me can’t wait. It’s not the green beer, or drunks with their fake Irish accents yelling “Top o’ the morning to ya.” that I enjoy the most. It’s the music. I love, love Keltic music. It speaks to my soul.

The Irishman reaches in to the glass, grabs the fly between his fingers and shakes him as hard as he can, shouting ‘Spit it out, ya bloody bastard! Spit it out!’
