You have a deal!  If I catch you without the cloth, BEWARE OF THE PINCH!! :P I know that when I was younger, if we caught someone without green on for St. Patrick's Day, we would pinch them. Does anyone else ever do that?

No green
I didn't wear green on Monday. I wore turquoise instead.
Green was reserved for Saturday's chapter meeting -- a minty green Ellen Tracy cardie.

Okay cool! Now hmmm where can I get some Kente cloth? I'm sure that I'll find some in January or February.
I don't pinch. I never heard of that until i watched it on the Simpsons a few years ago, lol.

You can purchase kente cloth with your organization's symbols. That way you can wear it all year long.
I"m sure RD wears Green all the time during the year.

Cream you might be right, maybe it is just a NY thing. Ever since I was a child, everyone I know has worn green on St. Patty's Day. Regardless of race or ethinicity, we all seem to wear it. The only person I have ever known who was against it with all his heart is Italian.

I'm even irish and i didn't wear green(my grandmother would rollover in her grave if she knew), but i do have a good excuse. i was in chicago for job interviews. green didn't really work with my black and white houndstooth suite. but i did get to see the river green while i was there. granted it was from the skydeck at the sears tower, but i saw it.
i didn't even get to have any green beer  now that i'm out of college i don't get to do that stuff.

I wore green, but then again I'm a New Yorker. It's all in good fun out here, at least as far as I'm concerned.
This dread came up to me and asked why I was weraing green though. I told him "cuz I want to". The NERVE!
