St. Patrick’s Day

How could I forget?

Everything is green today (including the Guinness). Anyone with links to the Emerald Isle (and many who have none – but want an excuse for a drink) will be wearing shamrock in their button hole, singing Danny Boy and dancing around like Danny Kaye.

I was reminded of this, not by the numerous references on radio and TV, but by Johnny Castaway. Any of you who have had a computer for more than 10 years will probably remember a screensaver about the antics of a poor little fellow abandoned on a desert island. Well around special days the screensaver features little extras, and near St. Patrick’s Day shamrocks grow on the island.

You can still find this screensaver and down load it for free at:
