Ted, These are for you.

Today was St. Patrick's Day, and though I did not go out at all, I was thinking back a few years to when I spent this day in Butte, Montana.  St. Patrick's Day in Butte is a bit like Mardi Gras in New Orleans--only smaller and grittier.  In Butte, public drinking is not only tolerated, it is legal--the last time I was there, there were still not laws against having open containers.  Any day of the week you could see people walking around sipping beers--but on St. Patrick's day they really tie one on.
