Love It or Leave It: Whiskey-Flavored Condoms

DearSugar — Mon, 16 Mar 2009 15:02:25 -0700

I happen to enjoy sipping whiskey on occasion, but I prefer it in my glass - definitely not on my man! I guess the smell of whiskey is a turn-on for some, and if you find it appealing, too, you can satisfy your craving with this Whiskey-Flavored Condom. It sure does give hard liquor a new meaning!

Since St. Patty's Day is tomorrow, tell me ladies, will you be celebrating with the bold essence of scotch on your crotch?

We've Got a Lucky Leprechaun Here For Ya!

GiggleSugar — Mon, 17 Mar 2008 10:30:00 -0700

A guy stumbles upon a leprechaun chilling at the end of a rainbow. The leprechaun says he'll grant him any wish in the world, but the dude can't think of anything he wants. So, in accordance with Leprechaun Law, the little green guy has to stay with our lame lucky bastard until a wish is made official. He makes suggestions, but dude isn't having any of it. So the leprechaun sits back and watches The Tyra Show until a wish is finally made . . .

Um...Happy St. Patrick's Day?

Someone missed the memo that in order to be "get lucky," it's gotta be a four-leaf clover.

Do Tell: Do You Consider Yourself to Be Lucky?

DearSugar — Mon, 17 Mar 2008 07:06:17 -0700

Happy St. Patrick's Day! Since the four-leaf clover is one of the mascots for this holiday, I thought it would be a good time to talk about luck! I've never considered myself lucky per se, but I know some people who just always have luck on their sides. They nail every job interview, they hit every green traffic light, and they even win big at the blackjack tables. Then there are those who are considered unlucky. They unfortunately have a dark cloud over their heads and everything that can go wrong, does. I think I fall someplace in the middle, but what about you? Do tell: Do you consider yourself to be lucky?

It's the St. Patrick's Day Craft a Caption! The leprechauns might just be gearing up here, but worldwide Irish celebrations have been chasing snakes and finding gold all weekend. Tokyo, Japan had a huge parade, where this pic was snapped. Come up with a clever caption and leave it in the comments - and the luck of the Irish to you!

How about: What? The green umbrella is clover doing it?

Above, celebrations in Great Britain bring out the Guinness in people, while in the photo to the left, a Russian parade looks both well protected and crazy at the same time. Is it just me or does it look like that leprechaun is staring right at you?

Proposition 3-17: Make St Patrick's Day an Official Holiday

LibertySugar — Mon, 10 Mar 2008 04:00:33 -0700

Guinness's plan to make St Patrick's Day an official US holiday is either a courageous campaign on behalf of Irish Americans, creative marketing, or both. The beer company is pairing everyone's favorite Irish holiday with politics. "Proposition 3-17" would make St Patrick's Day an official US Holiday, just like President's Day, the Fourth of July, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, etc. The movement is aiming for 1 million signatures, before presenting the petition to Congress.

The petition reads: "From the camaraderie in the streets to the joy pulsating in their hearts, people from all nationalities and backgrounds bask in the glory that is Irish."

My large Irish family always celebrates St. Patrick's Day welcoming family visiting from Ireland and all over the US with a big party, tasty food, a talent show, and an hours-long sing-a-long of Irish songs. Many Americans skip work on St Patrick's Day, even if they're clueless about Irish American heritage. Do you think making St Patrick's Day an official holiday would enhance the Irish Spirit, or just be an excuse to drink more Guinness? Are you ready to sign the petition?

St. Patrick's Day Around the World

CitizenSugar — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 12:00:02 -0700

I'm loving the matching green ties President Obama and Irish Prime Minister Brian Cowen wore today during a shamrock ceremony at the White House. It seems a little strange to me that Irish leaders come to America for St. Patrick's Day. Shouldn't it be the other way around?

Either way, it's obvious that St. Patrick's Day celebrations aren't confined to Ireland. For example, New York City held its 248th annual St. Patrick's Day parade today. Check out how the world celebrates the traditionally Irish holiday! Source

Lighten Up! There's No One as Irish as Barack Obama

CitizenSugar — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 03:00:16 -0700

On St. Patrick's Day everybody wants to be a little Irish. But the American president doesn't have to fake it. Barack O'Bama's great-great-great-grandfather was born in Ireland. A set of singing brothers in Ireland decided to turn this little known fact into a song. Check out the music video to get your St. Patrick's Day off to a festive start!
