Mike's top five

St. Patrick’s Day is one week today and here are the top five preparations you should be making for the big green event.
#5. Start setting up your “call in sick” for the 18th (Cough, cough, oh no I may be coming down with something. By next Tuesday you should be “man, I've been fighting this for a week now”).
#4. Listen to U2 and Van Morrison records, or if you’re a real glutton for punishment, Green Day.
#3. Forge a birth certificate for use at Kelly O'Brien's.
#3a. Remove the giant construction paper Valentine's heart from the fridge and replace it with the giant construction paper shamrock.
#2. Haul out the Patty O’ Furniture.
#1. Start cooking now so dinner is good and green by the 17th.
