Mike's Manic Minute 17 Mar 06

Happy Saint Patrick's Day Tonight on the History Channel,  you can watch PADDY WHACKED: THE IRISH MOB, http://www.historychannel.com/exhibits/stpatricksday/?page=video   More details than you'd ever want to know available at http://www.historychannel.com/exhibits/stpatricksday/     Who was this guy anyway? St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, is one of Christianity's most widely known figures. But for all his celebrity, his life remains somewhat of a mystery. Many of the stories traditionally associated with St. Patrick, including the famous account of his banishing all the snakes from Ireland, are false, the products of hundreds of years of exaggerated storytelling.   It is known that St. Patrick was born in Britain to wealthy parents near the end of the fourth century. He is believed to have died on March 17, around 460 A.D.   So, it's the anniversary of his death, regardless of what he actually did, I'd say raise a Guinness to him and give thanks you're still here…that's what I'm going to do!   Podcast of the day. . . Oh Don't Get Me Started! http://ohdontgetmestarted.com/modules/news/   Broadcast weekly, the show will present some of Tony's best rants and observations.
