Ironies:
My brother and I are cleaning out our mother's apartment as she died last week.
1. Our mother being a devout Catholic, we found a St. Anthony medal that hadn't been taken out of the package. I decided to see where a Catholic medal was made-sure enough it was made in that Catholic bastion of China.
2. I was cleaning out her closet where had stored decorations for almost every occasion. I couldn't believe I found a huge paper shamrock for St. Patrick's day. She died on St. Patrick's day. I couldn't get rid of that one fast enough.
