Who Cares What It Says Here, It’s Friday

Everybody May Not Be Irish on St. Patrick’s Day, but They Can All be Drunk

Okay, so Monday isn’t exactly the most ideal day to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, but I’m sure everyone can still manage to squeeze a drink or ten in and The Plain Dealer is here to help. In case you don’t want to mix up some black and tans in your kitchen or get cozy with a bottle of Jameson in your living room, you can hit up one of the many Irish Pubs The Plain Dealer have listed in an article today. Feel free to smack anyone wearing one of those goofy green hats. Even the Cat in the Hat wouldn’t be caught dead in that shit. Posuers.

Holy Shit, Gisele Has Been to Akron

Shocked? Well here’s another punch to the gut. She was there to do a cover shoot for Vogue. Crazy? Well here’s another mind blower. LeBron is in the photo too, making him one of only three men to ever grace the cover of Vogue during its 116-year run. If the description of the photo offered by Channel 3 is accurate at all (“James appears on the cover dribbling a basketball and screaming as if in game mode while throwing one arm around supermodel Gisele Bundchen.”), this is going to be hilarious. LeBron screaming while grabbing onto a woman. Talk about fashion.

Gas or Donuts?

Gas prices aren’t the only thing going wayyyyy up recently, supplies for bakers have also seen a sharp increase. Everything from flour, sugar, butter, and eggs has become more expensive. Local bakers are trying to keep prices down, but don’t know how much longer they can afford to. As a result a baker’s dozen may now only contain 6-8 items. I’ve been waiting to use that one for a while. But seriously, who doesn’t budget for bakery?

Real Quick

If you notice flags at half-mast today it is to commemerate the life of former Ohio Democratic Senator Howard Metzenbaum who died last night. Meanwhile Black Keys drummer Patrick Carney fires back at Chrissy Hynde and Devo for dissing Akron. Go have a beer, it’s close enough to St. Patrick’s Day.
