Re: St. Patrick's day

I'm not Irish, I just look like I am.

My family does have St. Patty's day traditions, though. We change the penultimate letter of our last name from e to a (Cohen to Cohan) as my grandfather did when he would go to Ireland on leave during WWII (he had BRIGHT RED HAIR), and my Mom and I watch QVC all day, and call each other up - Did you see that sweater? Did you see that piece of Belleek China?

We're not really drinkers, my family. We just ACT like we're drunk naturally.

No, I wish I weren't too afraid to go or yes, I'd be there.

Re: St. Patrick's day

I am taking off...have been for the past 5 years so it's become tradition. Plus, I work right on 5th avenue so I would be able to hear everything from my office and wouldn't be able to stand it if I weren't celebrating with everyone. I can't stay late though, it's FBIL 40th b-day and they are having a big dinner for him.
