If I wear green today...
...will you all join me in wearing red and white for St. George's Day on April 23?



How 'bout the fluer-de-lis on the Feast of St. Jeanne D'Arc on May 30?



:shrug: :shrug: :shrug:

Just wondering.

5. No St. George's, but I'll sing "La Marseillaise" for you...
Allons enfants de la Patrie,
Le jour de gloire est arrivé
Contre nous de la tyrannie
L'étendard sanglant est levé,
L'étendard sanglant est levé,
Entendez-vous dans les campagnes
Mugir ces féroces soldats?
Ils viennent jusque dans nos bras
Égorger nos fils, nos compagnes

Aux armes, citoyens,
Formez vos bataillons,
Marchons, marchons!
Qu'un sang impur
Abreuve nos sillons

Merci, Mlle Polsky, for making me learn the words AND tune.

6. What's wrong with St. G?
I mean apart from being semi-mythical as is St. Patrick. Pat really existed, of course, but that snake stuff is a myth. Just like the dragon.

I'm not talking about Orangemen or oppressing Ireland.

The British threw my grandfather in jail for rabble-rousing. Screw that.
