Aww no worries hon! :-)
Patrick is the 'Nationalheiliger' of Ireland. It's a holiday in Ireland and many parts of the US, because of their heritage. The color green is very important (in Chicago the river is even dyed green) and symbols like the shamrock, the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow and all that stuff...There are also hugs parades in New York for example.
Basically it's just a huge celebration where people tend to drink too much ;-)

They're dying the rivers green? óO Wow. Must have been a great man...I think I never heard of St. Patrick's day before.

Just like father's day in Germany. *lol*

Yeah something like that, only that people tend to wear something green, drink guiness and then sing a long to Irish songs ;-)
