I Will Tell You #81:
10 Reasons Why Spring Is So Awesome
“Here comes the sun, and I say it’s all right.” (c) 1969 George Harrison
For all of those who partook in the shenanigans and tomfoolery of St Patrick’s Day, I hope you had a safe one and that not too many incriminating pics of you wearing that green leprechaun hat, and green thong, are circulating around social networking sites. Last week, as you’ll recall, I shared why St Patrick’s Day is so awesome.

Spring is also a time for some of the best comic cons. And the onset of summer movies. And a great time to be a Red Wings fan, until this year, at least. It’s second only to summer itself, undoubtedly to be covered in a future column. In the meantime, I look forward to that first day where it’s nice enough to walk out of work and ditch the jacket that I wore in. One of springtime’s smaller but notable perks.
Happy springtime, y’all!
