we listened to the peak, like always, at work. and i just listened to usual stuff at home.
 
Will you be eating anything green?

Do you know who Saint Patrick was?
yes. he was a missionary to ireland in the fifth century (?) or sixth, i cant remember. he helped convert the pagans to Christianity. mhmm im a reliquary for useless knowledge. of course, i never thought this would come in handy, but in this survey it sure did!
