"God created alcohol to keep the Irish from conquering the world"---quote from a local Irish Public House
Every year for the past three years I am involved in my local St. Patrick's Day Parade. Each year I cannot find parking anywhere near the parade route which led me to thinking of a means of alternate transportation.
A grand entrance on a Four-Leaf Clover Helicopter with its four blades being clover leaf shaped and its fuselage looking like a bagpipe would stun the crowd or at least blow a few more inebriated onlookers over. Four Claymore swords, while Scottish, would consist of the tail rotor.-- MrDaliLlama, Mar 05 2005 mmmm.. engineers should look this one over...if they've overlooked it before...-- ConsulFlaminicus, Mar 05 2005 "Roger that, deploying rabbits foot landing gear."-- 2 fries shy of a happy meal, Mar 05 2005 Most of them would only have three leaves, only the lucky pilots would get the four leaf helicopters-- BPhilpotts, Mar 05 2005 now that the Irish members of the halfbakery have lambasted the Americans for Irish theme bars and over use of Guiness beer ads, I can't enjoy a St. Patty's day parade ever again... (sigh) in fact I've even given up lying that I was half Irish,
but this is a great idea.-- dentworth, Mar 05 2005 //Fueled by Whiskey and Beer// and homophobia - bone.-- xenzag, Mar 06 2009 huh ?-- FlyingToaster, Mar 06 2009 While I don't like the idea, I also don't understand what it has to do with homphobia, and I think that some explanation would not be amiss, Xen.
I think the Claymores should be replaced with shillelaghs.-- 21 Quest, Mar 07 2009 halfbakery
