Coming from an Irish descent, I take this holiday seriously (like eating cooked cabbage for dinner gives you luck). I would like to make some corrections my sister pointed out to me two days ago. There was a time where you got pinched for wearing green, so my sister got pinched last year cause her eyes are green. It's foolish, cause you can't change the color of your eyes. To set things right, if you got pinched for wearing green, then Leprechauns should wear a different color other than green. I think it should be the exact opposite. Those who didn't wear green, get pinched...LOL! Anyway, enough of the chit-chat. Happy St. Patrick's Day

Some older Irish people won't wear green, because it's the fairy colour - and you don't want to make the fairies cross! You're right. At work, I did meet and older guy, who said he was from Dublin, Ireland and did have green on. Figured this was the case
