When it comes to St. Paddy's Day, I'm conflicted. Sure my name is Patrick Timothy, I have Irish ancestry, and my small hometown had two parades: Christmas and St. Patrick's Day. And just to throw more green beer on the fire, my college gave students two days...
It's not exactly a New Year's resolution, more like a New Year's activity. I resolved to exercise on the elliptical every day while watching every episode of Star Trek in order. You understand the regimen. Personally, I'm not tabulating, but supposedly Gene Roddenberry and company produced 797...
