Weather isn't great today. Warm enough but rainy and we're supposed to get cold winds later. We're actually already at the high for the day; 55°.

In fact, there's even talk about working from the cigar lounge on Friday.

Morning, SaintRaz.
I've been called many things in my time. "Saint" isn't one of them.
My great-great grandfather James Robie was born in Belfast, but moved to Dublin and operated a pub before emigrating to Minnesota by way of Canada in the 1880s. He was something of a black sheep in his family, which says something because the Robie men were all blackguards according to my great grandmother. The rumor was that he skipped out of Dublin owing gambling debts to some people that were sketchier than him. So saintliness really isn't in my genetic makeup.

Nothing wrong with a little tarnish, scratches and maybe some bends in the halo.

Today is Monday, March 17, the 76th day of 2025
with 289 to follow.
The moon is waning. Morning stars are Jupiter and Mars. Evening stars are Jupiter, Mars, Mercury, Saturn, Uranus and Venus.
This is St. Patrick's Day.
On this date in history:
In 1762, New York City staged its first parade honoring the Roman Catholic feast day of St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland. It was led by Irish soldiers serving in the British army. In 2002, President George W. Bush became the first sitting U.S. president to take part in the event, more than six months after the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks on the city.
In 1776, the Continental Army under Gen. George Washington forced British troops to evacuate Boston. The Boston area marks Evacuation Day along with its St. Patrick's Day parade each year.
In 1901, 71 paintings by the late Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh were shown at the Bernheim-Jeune gallery in Paris and caused a sensation across the art world.
In 1917, Russia appeared headed toward a republic following the end of the 300-year-old rule of the Romanoff family.
In 1958, the U.S. Navy launched the satellite Vanguard 1 into orbit around Earth.
In 1959, the Dalai Lama flees Tibet for India.
In 1969, Golda Meir, a 70-year-old former Milwaukee schoolteacher, was elected first female prime minister of Israel.
In 1990, Lithuania rejected the Soviet Union's ultimatum to renounce its declaration of independence a week prior. The Soviets implemented sanctions against Lithuania and conducted a military operation in 1991 before other Soviet republics eventually declared their independence.
In 1992, South African whites, by a margin of 68.7% to 31.2%, voted to end minority rule. Nelson Mandela was elected two years later as the first president in a fully representative democratic election.
In 2003, as war with Iraq seemed a certainty, U.S. President George W. Bush gave Iraqi President Saddam Hussein and his sons 48 hours to leave the country. The ultimatum was rejected.
In 2024, Russian President Vladimir Putin won a fifth term in office, making him the longest-serving leader of the country in about two centuries. A Russian election watchdog called the election unconstitutional.

I still need to run out for those supplies. It'll just be me and the missus tonight, so I probably won't get so fancy with the whiskey.

Haven't tackled this yet. Usually when it's a strange one, a word from one side of the Spangram relates specifically with a word on the opposite side.
