Moving St. Patrick's Day

Deacon Greg Kandra shares an interesting article on his blog about Dublin's moving the date of St. Patrick's day for next year's festivities. It seems that March 17 falls during Holy Week and that the Dublin event will now be held on the 15th. I am wondering how a certain boy in Mississippi would feel about being told he had to celebrate his birthday two days early? Maybe we should just compromise, and celebrate both days!
