Happy St. Patrick's Day

A few St. Patrick's notes of interest:

-- House Speaker William J. Murphy will present "Murphy's Law" at Bob Burke's Federal Reserve.

-- There's a different kind of Green Drinks, the environmental variety, slated for Thursday, at Olives, North Main Street, Providence, from 5-8 pm.
