So, I can tell it's St. Patrick's Day.

How can I tell? Because every other post is somebody with an amusing or touching video of Danny Boy. (The muppets were a nice touch, I must say. Every holiday needs more muppets.)

Only thing is... well... Danny Boy isn't actually an Irish song. It was written by an Englishman. In America. The tune, sure, that's Irish, but the words...? Not so much.

This wouldn't concern me at all except, frankly, the song is considerably overdone. Next year, everybody should pick a different song instead.

The difference between kilts and Danny Boy can be summed up as follows:

1. I'm always up for seeing more hot guys in kilts.

2. I'm rarely up for another rendition of Danny Boy, no matter how hot Danny (or whoever) happens to be.

You may have a point there ;)

A point AND a picture of John Barrowman in a kilt. *ogles*
