    Well, most Americans pretend to be Irish on St. Pat's Day! LOL!

    So the "Korean" celebration will be three days after the actual St. Patrick's Day, because people will need three days to recover from whatever they inflict themselves during the "Irish" celebration?

    And Tamar1973, damn straight!
