International Man of History: Happy St. Patricks Day.

I hope everyone had a great green day. Between “Smarch Maddness”(Simpson’s fans will get that one) and the Big Green Day of Indulgent Activity, I’m sure everyone is ready for a relaxing Sabbath. I will be posting some images from the holidays when I was home so that everyone can remember what we all look like. In the next couple of weeks we will be traveling to Athens Greece where Donovan, Gretchen, & I can take in the sites where Western Civilization was born. Hopefully I can meet some Socrates impersonators and get some good action shots of them imbibing hemlock.

This Friday is Hockey Marathon at School. Basically, the students play hockey for 36 hours straight. I’m looking forward to the event as the children really enjoy the festivities. The opening ceremonies are very elaborate and entail various performances by the students and professionals. I’ll post some pics of the event.

As a school teacher it is vital to help people develop ways toward understanding. To help you to understand the history behind St. Patrick’s Day I’ve decided to use a model that everyone is familiar with. The other great snake wrangler, Snake on a Plane’s very own Samuel Jackson. By clicking on the link below, you can test your knowledge (or understanding) of these two great personalities associated with pest control.
