Is that just a lot of Blarney

I seem to get very anal around every holiday or special day, probably due to an exposure to some sort of scientific occurrence at my birth. I've never really discovered exactly what is was, but I suspect since I was born right at St. Patrick's Day to an Irish heritage, it is most probably "The Leprechaun Phenomenon". This is re-enforced by the fact that green is my favorite color, 4 is my lucky number(as in shamrock), a derby hat frightens me,and if I were to kiss a stone, it would be a blarney stone. Now mind you, I've never actually SEEN a leprechaun, although I suspect there are a lot of them up the hollers around Paint Bank and up the road into West Virginia. Due to this suspicion (and I wouldn't do this if it weren't a strong suspicion)we are declaring Saturday, March 15th as the official search and reward day for the capture of an area leprechaun or one that can prove his residency in the area(one picture ID will be sufficient).As a reward for this find, you will receive a meal at the Swinging Bridge Restaurant (a $25.00 value ). To claim your prize, just bring the leprechaun ( or a representative of his family) to Paint Bank General Store and claim your prize...
dress up cause we're gonna take a picture or you and your find to post on the
"wall of fame" in the store. While you're in Paint Bank, walk across the street to the Depot Lodge and say Hey, I'll say Hey back at you. You'll know me, I'm the one with the green sweater on.
