I decided to leave candy and coins and sprung the traps. <BR/><BR/>Fast forward many years later, my son woke up angry today because "Lucky" didn't come over night. Lucky never visited over night. He came while the kids were in school.<BR/><BR/>Broke down and dumped a couple bucks and chocolate coins in the traps this afternoon. <BR/><BR/>First Santa, the Tooth Fairy, the Easter Bunny and now a fricken leprechaun. I need a Guiness, or two!Heather Kerriganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09479515041675909393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9061114614741384579.post-51594544227029943302009-03-17T13:11:00.000-07:002009-03-17T13:11:00.000-07:00"Roman" is a designation of citizenship and cultur..."Roman" is a designation of citizenship and cultural identity, not ethnicity. Particularly in the later Empire there were large numbers of "Romans" of local birth, of which St. Patrick is a fine example.<BR/><BR/>By the time of Patrick the Romans had effectively abandoned Britain but cultural identification with Rome remained for some time.<BR/><BR/>There will be a quiz after the third round.

He has never been canonized by any Pope.</I><BR/><BR/>There seems to be general agreement that he was a bishop of the Christian Church, which I believe qualifies as a faith. Based on an extremely limited reading which I did just now, Papal canonization began later in the Church's history and the designation of saints was often local, but that does not delegitimize their status. If he were not a saint I suspect the Church would refrain from naming parishes and cathedrals after him.<BR/><BR/>Next round's on you, Tommy.Dave S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12642181505614685541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9061114614741384579.post-13943244824157989522009-03-17T11:44:00.000-07:002009-03-17T11:44:00.000-07:00Ok, even in March you're a scrooge.
