Irish blessing for St. Patrick's Day...
Edited on Thu Mar-17-11 06:57 AM by old mark
"May the road ahead rise to meet you as you stagger blindly home,
May it cradle you softly as you fall drunkenly on your face.
May the wind be always at you back, pushing you in the right direction.
May you not vomit on your shoes, especially while wearing them.
May you find you car, but not tonight.
And may you be asleep on the bathroom floor before the Devil knows you're drunk."

Amen, brother.

Erin, Get Back!

1. I wore a green tie.
Not Irish or Catholic, but I wore green anyway.

3. Well, there is no reason I would know about that, is there?
This is the OTHER Irish Blessing!

5. My personal favorite Irish Blessing:
Edited on Thu Mar-17-11 02:07 PM by davsand
May those who love us, love us;
and those who don't love us, may God turn their hearts;
and if He doesn't turn their hearts,
may he turn their ankles so we'll know them by their limping.”
