Just got e-mail from the CEO:

In true Macromedia spirit, we want to make sure that we're taking some time out to have fun in the midst of driving 'business as unusual' and integration planning.

Please join us for drinks, appetizers and informal Q&A at 4pm at 601T in the Town Hall on...

• Thursday, July 7 is Mexican Fiesta (don't forget your Sombrero)
• Thursday, August 18 is Hawaiian Luau (don't forget your Luau gear)
• Thursday, September 15 is Irish Pub night (please forget your leprechaun outfit and just stick to green)

I'm sure all of my Mexican, Hawaiian, and Irish coworkers are just pleased as punch to be pigeonholed by some Canadian jarhead who just sold us out a couple of months ago.

Are Irish people offended by the fact that Americans wear green on St. Patrick's Day?

Those of us living outside the US tend to be more perplexed at the fact that other countries go to far greater lengths than we do to celebrate our National Holiday. And my brother tends to be more ticked off at the steady parade of people approaching him to say, "I'm Irish too!" despite the fact that they couldn't, if challenged, point out Ireland on a map of the Western British Isles. Of course, he's American now.

Of course, he's American now.

Soon, everyone will be. Look out!
