A Green Day

Walking through campus, I noticed many students wearing green. "Was it an incredible coincidence?" I thought to myself. Then I overheard a student say, "I didn't realize it was St. Patrick's Day till I heard it on the radio this morning." I smart am not! He-LLO ... the connection should of been much quicker but my brain has been consumed over the past 24+ hours with intergrals, contours, parametrization, logarithms, exponential functions .. all of complex variables ... all of which I have yet to determine will be useful in my next career. Green does not equal St. Patty's Day ... at least not this morning.

In lieu of the Irish holiday, I provide this excerpt from The History Channel ...

"Who Was St. Patrick?"
"St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, is one of Christianity's most widely known figures. But for all his celebrity, his life remains somewhat of a mystery. Many of the stories traditionally associated with St. Patrick, including the famous account of his banishing all the snakes from Ireland, are false, the products of hundreds of years of exaggerated storytelling."

".. the product of hundreds of years of exaggerated storytelling." = stories by drunk folk

Happy St. Patty's Day ... Cheers!!!
