03/17/2004: "Happy St. Patricks day!"

I hope everyone has a good St. Patricks day. And a Holy one at that. I was thinking this morning about how the traditional celebrations of St. Patricks day have been morphed into something nearly demonic.

At the university I attended, they no longer have spring break over Holy Week, they now align it with St. Patricks day. Why? Because they don't want the partying to interfere with school. How horrible is that! At least for today we need a new bumper sticker. It's not WWJD it's WWSPD. I'm sure he wouldn't be happy with what his feast day has become.
