As all, or most of you should know, today is St. Patrick's Day. It's that one special day when everyone gets to wear their greenest greens, go out and get plastered for no more substantial reason than to get plastered. Taking that into consideration, I'm going to have to make the assumption that some of you are taking advantage of this most holy of drinking days.
Given the perception altering, sometimes hallucinatory effects of alcohol, I'm also hoping that someone around here has seen a leprechaun and either taken his gold, or at the very least captured a picture of him. I mean, today's supposed to be a lucky day, right? It's almost obligatory that someone has to find a pot of gold and become filthy rich.
But I won't settle for just that prize. Leprechauns have always made me ask the question: why? Why are you so tiny? Why are you such a greedy jerk? Why do you horde pots of gold and slide up and down rainbows? What kind of sick deity invented you?!
I never seem to have any luck catching them, probably because there's not a single drop of Irish blood in my body. That is why, my friends, I'm leaving the task to you. Someone find a leprechaun and report back here immediately! Their reign of terror must be stopped!
So, have you seen any leprechauns today?P.S. If you find the one that stole the four-leaf clover I found in the fourth grade, you have my explicit permission to beat the ever-living piss out of him.

Yup. 7... unless they were little redheaded 5th graders dressed in green?!
Haha... I hated that movie. My sister used to torment me like Wayne tormented Garth on Wayne's World, "I'm the leprechaun!!!"
I remember her saying it late at night once and tossing an ugly little monkey doll at me in the dark at the same time. I almost fucking died.
I'm part Irish and I'm pretty short (about 5 feet tall). Haven't seen any leprechauns today, unless my dad wearing one of those t-shirts that's designed to look like a tuxedo, a green and white striped hat, and a big green bow counts as a leprechaun. Oh and he used paint to color his skin green. Apparently some lady at the grocery store took a picture of him.
When I was in kindergarten, my teacher would tell us to put down some green construction paper, with glue on it, to catch a leprechaun. While we were at recess, she had these tiny green shoes that she put on the paper with glue to make us think that a leprechaun had been there. She also put down a trail of chocolate coins. Good times.
But no, unfortunately, I have not seen any leprechauns.
Damn Leprechauns.
Only one,

Leprechauns are Man's best friends... not.

The odd thing is, I DID see a leprechaun yesterday . . . in 4 movies . . . on SyFy . . .
