Have great Irish life, four years ago we returned from there, just as the world retreated indoors, and locked the doors.

Never understand why the other side of the pond has such an obsession with the Irish day.

Oh, we were in town for the Greening of the Chicago river and it was absolutely crazy. It was like Straight Pride: frat boys and coeds all over the place and a LOT of alcohol. Yes.
