What's the matter? You still hung over from St Patti's? That green beer stain your teeth? wink

If you want to avoid annoying oversensitive Irish people, don't refer to the day as St. Patti's. It's Paddy, not Patti. Paddy is the contraction of Patrick because in Irish it's written Padraig, which is pronounced Pawrig but, the d is pronounced in the shortened version. Simple smile Of course, not being Irish, I don't care.

Actually, I'm not hung over. I find a finely judged degree of inebriation can help to get the creative juices flowing, but in this case I just hadn't written anything for a while and decided to start with a chord progression I liked instead of my usual technique of first coming up with the melody while drunk. With rare exceptions, I only do funny and sad, so probably back to funny next time!
