There'll be no corned beef for me this St. Patrick's Day, nor any other food made of any creature that walks this earth, for St. Patrick's Day falls this year on Friday.

Though, the last time St. Paddy's Day was on Friday the Bishop offered an indulgence to all Irish Catholics in the dioces so they could have it. Of course, I have so little Irish blood in me it'd probably be inappropriate to take advantage of it if the Bishop does the same this year.
