Happy Saint George’s Day everyone! Grab a pint glass of your favorite English beer, or fix yourself a nice gin and tonic, and enjoy your pretend Englishness today – preferably with the aid of alcohol. There will be readings from Douglas Adams and a half-assed game of cricket later.
Until today, Saint Georges Day hasn’t really be celebrated around here and I mean to fix that. We are Americans and holidays are what we do. So let the word go forth – today we are all English.
PS – See you on November 30th and you better be wearing your kilt, because on this Saint Andrews Day, (and all future Saint Andrew’s Day) we will not be fucking around. Saint David’s Day (March 1st) can go piss up a rope. I never liked the Welsh.
