5. Errrrr I love the corned beef and cabbage....

But St Patrick is known for driving the old religions out of Ireland so I'm gonna pass on celebrating him.

I'm going to celebrate Evacuation Day- The day the British Evacuated Boston.

In my opinion a much better reason to gorge on Corned beef and good Ale !

6. I celebrate for the ones who came before me, and honor their lives

Then, I toast the snakes, and pour a bit of whiskey upon the ground in honor of the ones who came before me and followed the old ways that still live in my heart.
