Brian’s collected pieces, volume by volume.
Today is about the green, but not the green clover nor the green dales of Ireland. Rather we spend our green dollar bills which buy us green plastic hats and keeps the green beer flowing for yet another day of carnival. We live in a time which commodifies everything, and yet I refuse to be disheartened as I tip a pint to St. Patrick, and to all those conflicted Irish qualities so deeply rooted within me. Sláinte mhaith!
