A ‘Danny Boy’-free St. Patrick’s Day

Arts: The Associated Press (via the Seattle Post-Intelligencer) reports that singing “Danny Boy” has been banned for the entire month of March at Foley’s Pub and Restaurant in Manhattan. The reason? “It’s overplayed, it’s been ranked among the 25 most depressing songs of all time and it’s more appropriate for a funeral than for a St. Patrick’s Day celebration,” owner Shaun Clancy said. I’ll drink to that! World: CTV in Canada reports of more cases in which laser beams are being shot into the eyes of pilots.
