When asked, he always says: “I'm English, Irish, Dutch, Polish, Italian . . . ”
And he never deviates from that, with the sentence trailing off at the end . . .
But just because our Irish ancestry is extremely diluted, or possibly, non-existent . . .
. . . it doesn't stop us from celebrating St. Patrick's Day . . .
. . . like good ol' Americans . . .
. . . with a corned beef and cabbage dinner . . .
. . . and a modest nod to the green . . .
. . . a pinch of Irish, if you will . . . Happy St. Patrick's Day!
