        St. Patrick's Party
        March 17, 2007




        We had an excellent turnout this year for the St. Patrick's Day Party. Everyone had a great, "all you can eat" Irish dinner of corned beef & cabbage with potatoes and carrots. People enjoyed Karaoke and a had great time. Some played pool and others enjoyed the vending machines throughout the evening. Our bartender of the evening was Kay Harrison. She did a great job and was kept quite busy throughout the evening.

          Salute To Ireland: Irish Drinking Toasts

          May your glass be ever full.
          May the roof over your head be always strong.
          And may you be in heaven
          half an hour before the devil knows you're dead.

          Here's to me, and here's to you,
          And here's to love and laughter-
          I'll be true as long as you,
          And not one moment after.

          Here's to you and yours
          And to mine and ours.
          And if mine and ours
          Ever come across to you and yours,
          I hope you and yours will do
          As much for mine and ours
          As mine and ours have done
          For you and yours!

          Health and life to you;
          The mate of your choice to you;
          Land without rent to you,
          And death in Eirinn.

          Here's a toast to your enemies' enemies!

          When we drink, we get drunk.
          When we get drunk, we fall asleep.
          When we fall asleep, we commit no sin.
          When we commit no sin, we go to heaven.
          So, let's all get drunk, and go to heaven!

          Here's to a long life and a merry one.
          A quick death and an easy one.
          A pretty girl and an honest one.
          A cold beer—and another one!

          Here's to our wives and girlfriends:
          May they never meet!



          Salute To Ireland: Irish Blessings

          May the road rist to meet you.
          May the wind be always at your back.
          May the sun shine warm upon your face.
          And rains fall soft upon your fields.
          And until we meet again, May God hold you in the hollow of His hand.

          May you live as long as you want,
          And never want as long as your live.


          Always remember to forget
          The things that made you sad.
          But never forget to remember
          The things that made you glad.

          Always remember to forget
          The friends that proved untrue.
          But never forget to remember
          Those that have stuck by you.

          Always remember to forget
          The troubles that passed away
          . But never forget to remember
          The blessings that come each day.

          May the saddest day of your future be no worse
          Than the happiest day of your past.

          May the roof above us never fall in.
          And may the friends gathered below it never fall out.

          May you have warm words on a cold evening,
          A full moon on a dark night,
          And the road downhill all the way to your door.

          May there be a generation of children
          On the children of your children.

          May you live to be a hundred years,
          With one extra year to repent!

          May the Lord keep you in His hand
          And never close His fist too tight.

          May your neighbors respect you,
          Trouble neglect you,
          The angels protect you,
          And heaven accept you.

          May the Irish hills caress you.
          May her lakes and rivers bless you.
          May the luck of the Irish enfold you.
          May the blessings of Saint Patrick behold you.

          May your pockets be heavy and your heart be light,
          May good luck pursue you each morning and night.

          Walls for the wind,
          And a roof for the rain,
          And drinks beside the fire -
          Laughter to cheer you
          And those you love near you,
          And all that your heart may desire!

          May God be with you and bless you,
          May you see your children's children,
          May you be poor in misfortune, rich in blessings.
          May you know nothing but happiness
          From this day forward.

          May God grant you many years to live,
          For sure He must be knowing
          The earth has angels all too few
          And heaven is overflowing.

          May peace and plenty be the first
          To lift the latch to your door,
          And happiness be guided to your home
          By the candle of Christmas.

          May you always have work for your hands to do.
          May your pockets hold always a coin or two.
          May the sun shine bright on your windowpane.
          May the rainbow be certain to follow each rain.
          May the hand of a friend always be near you.
          And may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.
