An o’fficial holi-lalie, m’lads n’ lassies.

Is that Irish?

The green folks at Guinness have a petition online asking people to help make March 17 (St. Patrick’s Day) an official holiday. I’m not Irish, nor am I a huge fan of Guinness (I prefer my beer without the motor oil) … but I am a fan of St. Patrick’s Day.

In particular, I love McDonald’s Shamrock Shakes. I am one of many out there who insist it tastes different than a normal vanilla shake, and that it’s NOT just food coloring. I think it’s minty. (There is actually debate on this out there, and the commercial below supports my minty claim).

Unfortunately, I haven’t had one in quite some time, and despite rumors that McDonald’s has brought it back this year, I have yet to find it. If you have any idea where I can get a Shamrock Shake (in addition to Slurm and Chocolate Cherry Diet Dr Pepper), let me know, lass.

I’ve gone way off course here. Back to the petition.
