PEOPLE: Okay, I fucking hate St. Patrick's Day because how stupid are the Irish to celebrate the life of a bloody british guy who came to Ireland, destroyed the natural religion, perpetuated the Catholic Church's ideas about the subservience of women, when women were the original land owners in Ireland...shall I go on...but I do like Irish boys...especially The Bloody Irish Boys...visit their website to hear great music...here's the link...http://www.thebloodyirishboys.com/...bloody cool

DRINK: Speaking of things that are green...okay only the bottle is green, but GINI Bitter Lemon Tonic from France is an awesome drink. Tastes like the the best Tom Collins mix you ever had. It is tart and bitter, but not too much so. Great summertime cooler for those who don't like wussy drinks, and a VERY good mixer with fine vodka, see my VOX recommendation on March 7, 2006. You can order this and any other soda you can think of from any era and any country at www.sodaking.com. go make mommy a drink cool...

MEDIA: Project Runway rocks. You should watch it, it's cool. The only reality show where the participants are judged on real talent. Tonight is the final challenge. I mean it, check it out at www.bravotv.com/Project_Runway . you are out, but cool...

PLACES: Bend, Oregon is cool. I don't know whether or not I should recommend it because I don't want it to get overrun with tourists, but that would be okay, too, because the place is dependent on tourism...anyway, learn everything you want to know about Bend, Oregon at http://www.visitbend.com ...snowboarding-wakeboarding cool...
