Happy Saint Patricks Day

Today is always a day that I celebrate every year; even though with all honesty, I am not Irish. Ya I will be a lager lout like the rest of the 364 days of the year. I will have a logarithm going after work today. Though of course the holiday is much more then have stout or lager. It is celebrating a history and culture that goes fare beyond a pint glass. I like to take this time to remember an event in history. Of course it is about Saint Patrick and his moment in history. I like to thing of something modern. I always watch with my corn beef and cabbage the movie In the Name Of the Father. It is about when England in the 1970’s had a something similar to what America recently did with Guantanamo Bay to try to arrest IRA terrorists. The English found a way to get around due process and contain someone for how ever long. The story of the Guildford 4, is a case of that. The Guildford 4 accused of being IRA terrorists and were wrongfully imprisoned for 17 years. In the Name Of the Father, is their story in a movie. So would like to wish everybody happy Saint Paddy’s day. Be loud, be drunk; don’t get behind the wheel.
