Unicorn

Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme!
"The Unicorn" was selected because Monday is St. Patrick's Day. Unfamiliar with this week's song? Hear it here.

1) This song was recorded by The Irish Rovers. While it's said that on St. Patrick's Day everyone is Irish, can you honestly claim Irish heritage?
Yes, my great grandma and grandpa on my mom's side are from Ireland  
2) According to the 2000 Census, Massachusetts is the state with the largest percentage of residents of Irish descent. Have you ever been to The Bay State?
A couple of times. On vacation when I was in my teens, and to visit my friend DawnMarie last fall.
3) Other than St. Patrick, what is Ireland famous for?
Red heads?
4) St. Patrick's Day is celebrated the world over. They even watch marching bands and wave Irish flags on St. Patrick's Day in Moscow. Does your town have a St. Patrick's Day parade? 
Yep. I think its tomorrow.  
5) "The wearing o' the green" is one way to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. Will you wear something green in honor of the day?
nah, i don't have anything green.
6) Have you ever had green beer?
More times than I'll ever admit to.
7) Have you ever ordered a Shamrock Shake at McDonald's?
noooooooooooooooooooo gag me.
8) A four-leaf clover is considered good luck. Do you have a lucky charm?

9) Speaking of Lucky Charms, they are magically delicious.  What brand of cereal is in your kitchen right now?
Raisin Bran. Think I'll have a bowl.

  6. Your lucky charm is so sweet! Give him a little hug for me? And I forgot that Ireland is famous for redheads! Three of our DD's have red hair, and DH was one as well.
