Happy St.Patrick’s Day to all who celebrate.Many years ago I entered a poetry competition sponsored by Paddy’s Irish Whiskey.
I did not win a cash prize but I did win a certificate reading Leonard ……….Honorary Irish Poet.I also received a letter advising that if I brought the certificate to a bar that served Paddy’s whiskey I would receive a free beverage.
There was an Irish bar close to where I was working and I brought it in .I received a shot of whiskey.The certificate was then framed by me and I hung it on a wall in my office.
Later on it hung on a wall in the bar in my then home.Currently it is in my closet .
The only food I ever ate that had a horrible odor was pickled pigs feet.The grandmother of a childhood friend was visiting from Jamaica,BWI and I did not wish to offend her by not trying a food that she prepared.It tasted awful to me.
For approximately 10 years we used a TA that offered discounted cruises because they booked only groups.We knew other people who were in groups on the cruises.
Survivor and Amazing Race were interesting last night.Supposedly this season will have very difficult tasks.
I am rooting for Derek and Shelish,Rod and Leticia,Amber and Vinny and Juan and Shane-Subject to change
Greg posted about going to his school reunion.I have been to 6 school reunions and enjoyed all of them People came from all over the world.Nearly every person worked at a different job than the job they aspired to as printed in the school yearbooks.
Deal or No Deal Island last night was a very interesting show.
I was not happy with who went home.
I find myself rooting for Boston Rob be because he plays the game like he did on Survivor.
