WARNING! St. Patrick's Day is 17 March. I will be deeply offended if I see anyone wearing a tee-shirt with a Mexican flag. We all know how holy St Paddy's Day is to the Irish. It celebrates the great St. Patrick who played the pipes to lead all the snakes out of Ireland and the Mexican flag shows a snake on it. What is little known is St. Patrick lead those snakes to the south, where they became English. So no wearing of English flags either.

St. Patrick is very important to American history. He built an ark which he filled with good Irishmen and parted the Atlantic where they wandered for forty years and forty nights, carried on the backs of a thousand and one Leprechauns. Finally, on that fateful day of March 17th, they landed at Blarney Stone, bearing gifts of whiskey and potatoes, where they were met by the now famous Indian Chief, TEOTWAWKI. Chief TEOTWAWKI was so grateful, he gave them Tammany Hall where one of the sacred tenements of American politics was established, that everyone had the right to vote- including the dead. Thus it was that the Irish became the first Americans.

Unfortunately, St Patrick committed the unforgivable sin during that ocean voyage- During a Great storm, he allowed a drop of whiskey to fall from his cup whereupon it fell to the table and was lost. For such a sin, St. Patrick was denied entry to the Promised Land and was taken up by God before the Irish entered Tammany Hall. Thus it was that St. Patrick was not able to drive out the nest of vipers that gathered in Washington DC that plague all good Americans to this day.

It is important that we allow no one to bring dishonor to the deeds and sacrifices made St. Patrick and let all know we will be deeply offended if anyone were to wear a tee shirt with the Mexican flag on it.

Oh- and no wearing tee shirts with the English flag either. Or snakes. No snakes. Or kangaroos, as we all know a kangaroo is nothing more than a snake with a carpet bag and a pair of springs

Thank you

That Sir was sheer genius.

I have been honored to read it. I read it out loud to my wife who was exceptionally impressed by your crossing of the Atlantic. (This is an accomplishment by the way, as my wife normally only laughs out loud like that when I fall down, stub my toe or have something heavy fall on my head.)
