An bhfuil Gaeilge agat? Cá bhfuil an leithreas, le do thoil?

CÉAD MÍLE FÁILTE!
(Cayd mee-luh fawl-cha) -- "A Hundred Thousand Welcomes"


How's she cuttin'?

Here at ROUTE 1, we're brushing up on our (exceptionally) rudimentary IRISH in anticipation of wearin' o' the green on ST. PATRICK'S DAY.


SLÁINTE!

(Slawn-cha) -- "Cheers"


Readers get into the spirit by answering the following FRIDAY QUESTION:

"What's the best way to celebrate St. Patrick's Day?"

DAVE B. -- Starting out the day with listening to The Pogues, taking the kids to the SAPADAPASO St Patrick's Day parade and enjoying a couple Irish Pilsners.

BEKAH P. -- Is it too cliche to say drinking? Yes? OK. Well, second option: Eat at an Irish Pub.

BOB H. -- I always look forward, with great anticipation, for St. Patty's Day, because I have an excuse to eat lots of corned beef and cabbage. This year I am starting from scratch and corning a five pound brisket. Yummy, yummy (how do you say that in Irish, or is it Gaelic?), I hope!
MARY N.-P. -- OMG - How can you even ask this? It's by eating greasy, salty corned beef and boiled cabbage of course. I love the stuff, but for some reason, never seem to eat it on any other day!
RICK T. -- Eating corned beef & cabbage.

MIKE D. -- Clean the green mold off the stuff in the back of my refrigerator.

KERI M. -- Wear green and have fun with friends!

SANDYE V. -- Eating corned beef and cabbage, with carrots and boiled potatoes. Mmmm. Green Jell-o goes well with it. And a glass of Guinness. Skol!

ERIK H. -- After eating (the apparently obligatory) corned beef and cabbage, I'll sip a pint of Murphy's Stout. Saol fada chugat!
