Thank you very much for your comments.  The Kelleys have a bit of Irish blood.

Dolores and I were engaged to be married on St. Patrick's Day in 1965.  We we have additional reasons to celebrate the day.

I am 1/4 Irish but I have only been to Ireland once many years ago. But I always get a kick out this holiday and the green beer as professed as St Patrick's Day beer. I doubt that way back when that they had coloring in the beer.
