With St. Patrick's Day falling on a Saturday this year (a rare, and always much anticipated occurrence) parade preparations in New York City will be underway shortly. <span style="font-weight: 300">If you've never attended the NYC St. Patrick's Day Parade, it's very impressive, lasting 5+ hours, with literally thousands of bagpipes and Irish dancers. Always a memorable experience. </span>
And considering the overflow of the parade-goers up Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, combined with a full slate of NCAA Basketball "March Madness" games on Saturday, it's not a bad day to be a pub owner in New York City!
I recall an old Irish saying that my grandfather (from County Mayo) used to quote -- "<em>The Irish are a race of people who don't know what they want, and are prepared to fight to the death to get it." (</em>(I always liked that one.) So with that in mind, <em>e</em>njoy the festivities, and be safe. New posts and articles will follow next week.
