When a Special Day Really Isn't

So, apparently there's this new law in effect (or possibly it's in affect, I can never tell), where today really isn't St. Patrick's Day because the big head honcho dudes at the Vatican decided you couldn't celebrate a St.'s day in the Holy Week or something. I really wouldn't care if today actually was St. Patrick's Day myself, but I figure I'll just let the Catholics figure it out for themselves while I sit here in my happy little Protestant shell and let the Catholics' promlems glance off. Been practicing some new songs on the guitar.
