B. Brian Brunzell 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2004 Happy St. Paddy's Day to all my fellow TSMers. Anyone got any plans for today? And yes, I do know the reason why we celebrate St. Patrick, in case anyone was wondering. Anyway, have fun and be safe this March 17th. Brunzell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ripper 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2004 Speak with a foreign accent and grab the breast of women that aren't wearing green. then I'll say "I am to be understanding this is what you do for being without the green today, no?"

Mik 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2004 I was walking home from class and some guys were standing on a porch offering free beer to anyone who walked by. 3 hours and 12 cups of beer later... Happy St. Patrick's Day. This is awesome. And the best part is, I leave for Italy tomorrow for 12 days. See you in two weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nevermortal 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2004 'Twas down the glen one Easter morn To a city fair rode I. When Ireland's line of marching men In squadrons passed me by. No pipe did hum, no battle drum Did sound its dread tattoo But the Angelus bell o'er the Liffey's swell Rang out in the foggy dew. Right proudly high over Dublin town They flung out a flag of war. 'Twas better to die 'neath an Irish sky Than at Suvla or Sud el Bar. And from the plains of Royal Meath Strong men came hurrying through; While Britannia's sons with their long-range guns Sailed in through the foggy dew. Oh, the night fell black and the rifles crack Made "Perfidious Albion" reel 'Mid the leaden rail, seven tongues of flame Did shine o'er the lines of steel By each shining blade, a prayer was said That to Ireland her sons be true And when morning broke still the war flag shook Out its fold in the Foggy Dew. 'Twas England bade our Wild Geese go That small nations might be free But their lonely graves are by Suvla's waves or the fringe of the grey North Sea Oh had they died by Pearse's side, or had fought with Cathal Brugha Their graves we'd keep where the Fenians sleep, 'neath the shroud of the Foggy Dew. But the bravest fell, and the requiem bell Rang mournfully and clear For those who died that Eastertide In the springing of the year And the world did gaze, with deep amaze, At those fearless men and true Who bore the fight that freedom's light Might shine through the Foggy Dew. Ah, back through the glen I rode again, And my heart with grief was sore For I parted then with valiant men Whom I never shall see more But to and fro in my dreams I go And I'd kneel and pray for you For slavery fled, O glorious dead, When you fell in the Foggy Dew.
