Who's Getting Pinched?View Messagesline up! “Time to celebrate our Irish heritage, folks! I hope everyone is wearing green and planning to comsume only beer, potatoes, and Lucky Charms today. YAY! Also, I hope everyone will make a commitment not to perpetuate Irish stereotypes, starting today. Thank you.” 8:19:53 AM 3/17/03 “my parents got married 19 years ago today!” 8:21:11 AM 3/17/03 “I'm wearing green, but you can pinch me anyway, lyra! We'll have some real Irish fun tonight; drinking, puking, peeing from the rooftops, the usual...” 8:26:47 AM 3/17/03 “YEAH BABY! are you going to wear a "Kiss Me, I'm Irish" sticker? if so, i hope everyone gets the kissing in before the puking starts. LOL!” 8:29:38 AM 3/17/03 “I wish! I only have a "Irish I had a Schlitz" t-shirt. Pug Mahon's is the place to be here today. They're having corned beef with boiled potatos.” 8:32:54 AM 3/17/03 “I ate my corned beef yesterday (BTW, corned beef is NOT irish, it's a jewish food, lol. Lamb would really be more appropriate) and have my grren on.” 8:35:19 AM 3/17/03 “cool, i'll be there in a few hours. :-)” 8:35:19 AM 3/17/03 “Ooops forgot to wear green. Somebody pinch me!” 8:35:31 AM 3/17/03 Don't need to wear no stinking green “I'm not Irish!” 8:40:38 AM 3/17/03 “okay, you and Indiana pinch each other.” 8:41:17 AM 3/17/03 “I am wearing green, not that I am going anywhere....so don't ask me why I do wear green. took my kids forever this morning to pick out something green. They are both terrified of getting pinched. LOL” 8:42:32 AM 3/17/03 “The Israelites ate lamb too didn't they? Ireland, where the focus is more on the drink and the music, than on the food.” 8:43:59 AM 3/17/03 LyndyS “Makes sense to me. I've heard of (and visited once or twice) Irish Pubs. I haven't heard of restaurants specializing in "Irish Cuisine."” 9:16:14 AM 3/17/03 “I shall be downing a drop of the dark stuff to celebrate :o)” 9:17:47 AM 3/17/03 “only a drop? ;-)” 9:27:52 AM 3/17/03 “I can be pursauded to have a second” 9:31:36 AM 3/17/03 “I stayed out too late last night. I feel a little green this morning. Trying to struggle through a con call with corporate brass. I am very thankful this is not a video conference.” 9:31:48 AM 3/17/03 “An Irish drop?” 9:32:17 AM 3/17/03 “In heaven the Irish make the beer and the Italians do the cookin'. In hell its the other way around!” 9:33:47 AM 3/17/03 “Since when is beef kosher?... Lamb is a very tradition jewish dish.” 9:49:16 AM 3/17/03 “"In heaven the Irish make the beer and the Italians do the cookin'. In hell its the other way around!" Tom Terrific 09:33:47 AM 03/17/03 Guess it's about time for me to head for church then!” 9:52:55 AM 3/17/03 Scared for life “When I was in about 3rd grade I was pinched by some stinkin boy on St Paddy's Day. It left a scar on my right hand below my thumb...I EVEN HAD GREEN ON!!! Now he could have gotten pinched first...but I'm getting old an my memory is failing ;) Not my fault he didn't have green on!” 10:50:35 AM 3/17/03 “Hey, check out the festivities at the M&M Bar in the Butte, MT, the Irish capital of the west! This is a classic. They're still having breakfast, but it should liven up as the day progresses. Right now some girl is holding up her phone number. I don't see Newgirl, so she's probably still home.” 11:10:13 AM 3/17/03 “gotta love those webcams!! i think i see a hot dude in the corner!! i wish he was holding up his phone number!! woohooo!” 11:16:32 AM 3/17/03 “Im wearing green, but then again, I dont have a choice....lol. I” 11:18:44 AM 3/17/03 “Check it out about 2:00pm- they'll be tuned up!” 11:19:26 AM 3/17/03 “cool, i love webcams too! :-) i'm not wearing green, moooooaahaahaahaa! i actually forgot. SERIOUSLY!” 11:22:40 AM 3/17/03 “I'm wearing orange. Got a problem wit that?” 11:23:05 AM 3/17/03 “I'm all in favor of sectarian drinking contests :o)” 11:26:58 AM 3/17/03 “hey ynami, did you ever make it to Hudson Trails? i didn't...i suck! the only thing i could think of that i really wanted was a fleece, and it was such nice weather that i wasn't even in the mood for that! :-)” 11:33:40 AM 3/17/03 “yeah, I went to the one in Fairfax. you didn't miss much really. I find that firm's sales a bit crap. The only good deal seemed to be if I was a extra small woman who needed a marmot precip.... unfortunatley I think it may have only fitted my arm. So how was your weekend anyway?” 11:37:04 AM 3/17/03 “my condolances on not being an extra-small woman. ;-) my weekend was good! i went hiking at Annapolis Rocks, MD...ever been there? i got about halfway up the trail, when it turned to solid, packed snow! i was surprised...i didn't think there'd be any left. did you have a good one?” 11:40:59 AM 3/17/03 “wow - well I guess we did get loads of snow this year. I had a good one thanks (I'd go into details but I feel a bit embarrassed posting my mundane weekend tasks when people are out there bakcpacking ;o) )” 11:47:23 AM 3/17/03 “well, as long as you squeezed several drinking contests in... ;-)” 11:50:33 AM 3/17/03 “Boiled meat. Yum.” 11:54:48 AM 3/17/03 “"Since when is beef kosher?..." since it was prepared according to Jewish law. Perhaps you're thinking of shellfish? That's never kosher. Pastrami is also jewish, and virtually the same thing as corned beef, just peppered. Here's another bit of trivia for you all: traditionally only Catholics wore green on St Patrick's day, Protestants wore orange.” 11:56:12 AM 3/17/03 “So, an Irishman walks out of a bar..... bah-dum-dum-CRASH!” 12:05:21 PM 3/17/03 12:07:20 PM 3/17/03 “Hey, where are you in the pic, Aero?” 12:08:43 PM 3/17/03 “I'm actually on the floor below the bar.” 12:11:17 PM 3/17/03 “So where is everyone? Oh, yeah. Its Montana.” 12:12:24 PM 3/17/03 “Butte, America! home of Evel Kneilvel” 12:13:41 PM 3/17/03 “I'll tell ya who's gettin pinched. That Suddam Hussayn--he's gonna feel the pinch. Heh Heh Heh” 12:20:19 PM 3/17/03 “I get pinched, wore brown. But Shanedog will wear his kiss me I'm irish bandana for our run this afternoon! He gets more attention than me anyway.” 1:06:04 PM 3/17/03 “LOL, dhutch! I doubt he needs that bandana for people to know he's Irish! I get pinched, too. I had lunch with the president of the company and one of my clients. I have nothing green that was dressy enough for the occassion!” 1:33:42 PM 3/17/03 SG “Check your e-mail” 1:36:49 PM 3/17/03 “LMAO!! good one, roseymonster! that bar is starting to fill up, Aero...” 1:37:29 PM 3/17/03 “"Pug Mahon's," Aero?!? ('Pog ma hoin' is Gaelic for Kiss My Ass, LOL) Yes, the Orange is for William of Orange (Limpy's gonna GET IT).” 1:40:38 PM 3/17/03 “I did, dhutch. :) I'll respond later this afternoon.” 1:42:23 PM 3/17/03 Pog ma hoin'! “That's right! You got it Tilt!” 1:47:14 PM 3/17/03
