St Patrick's Day is on a Friday this year.
While St. Patrick's Day is one big party, it's important to keep in mind, that like New Years Eve, all the amateurs come out to play [it's not just the Irish who are out drinking on St. Patrick's Day]. So some measure of caution is advised and you have to be careful.
At a later date we'll add a bit of history of St. Patrick's Day.

Sunday, March 5, 2023 the St. Patrick's Day Parade on Staten Island steps off at 12.30 pm. They begin at Harts Blvd marching along Forest Avenue in the Westerleigh / Elm Park neighborhoods to Jewett Avenue, in the West New Brighton neighborhood of Staten Island. Members of the LGBTQ community continue to be banned from participating in the parade. I couldn't find a parade website nor an up-to-date Facebook page as of this post [3/4/23].

Staten Island St Patrick's Day Parade LGBTQ Controversy
Banning Gays from 'Visibly' Marching
Last Updated March 2022 - Since 2018, the Staten Island St. Patrick's Day parade is the only St. Pat's Day Parade in NYC that bans gays from marching under their own banner. That seems a bit out of touch with the 21st century.
A Brief History of the SI St Pat's Day Parade Since the Manhattan NYC Parade Dropped the LGBTQ Ban in 2018
In 2018 the NYC St. Patrick's Day Parade organizers decided to allow gays to march in their parade.
In 2019 the Staten Island St. Patrick's Day Parade organizer, Larry Cummings, said its not discrimination but rather a "non-sexual identification parade". I found Cummings' statement contradictory, since heterosexual males and females are easily identified by sight. It seems Cummings still doesn't understand that the LGBTQ community wants them to recognize that they - a sizeable group of the population [LGBTQ] - doesn't fit into the two predominant sexual categories: males & females.
Thus, in 2019, Borough President James Oddo, Staten Island Congressman Max Rose, Republican and NYC Council Minority Leader Steven Matteo, and Staten Island District Attorney Michael E. McMahon [who said he will attend but not march] and a slew of other Staten Island government officials have decided not to participate in the 2019 parade.
In the year 2020 the SI St Pat's Parade parade proceeded in spite of the controversy over the decision to ban LGBTQ participants from marching in the parade. As a result many gays and government officials boycotted the parade. Assemblywoman Nicole Malliotakis, who was running for Congress against Max Rose, had reportedly agreed to march in the parade, despite the brouhaha.
No live parade in the year 2021.
In March of 2022, the Throggs Neck St. Patrick's Day Parade announced that they are allowing LGBTQ people to march in the parade. Brendan Fay who started the Sunnyside St. Pat's For All Parade in protest to the LGBTQ ban, has been advocating for the change in all NYC boroughs, said,
"... we wish it didn't take this long ... [but] What's more important is that we get to this place [inclusion], and we have ..."
Editor's Note: I'm pretty sure that Faye's comments now apply to all of the St. Patrick's Day Parades in NYC - except on Staten Island.
The LGBTQ Issue is Poorly Understood Because the Corporate Media Fails to Explain It
I've spent some time exploring this issue since I first began blogging, and there are two pieces I've written that I think may help people better understand the gender issue. The first one is a scientific look at gender, and the second is a look at the issue through the photo of a hermaphrodite [not for the faint of heart].
It's a shame that the current class of corporate mass media does such a miserable job of educating their audiences. I ascribe many of our nation's ills, to the failure of the modern corporate media to do its job, of actually informing the community.
Network TV seems to behave more like town gossips than real newspeople, because gossip generates ratings, revenue and profit. And they seem to pay scant attention to the important role they play in providing society with the information it needs to make important decisions about pols and policies. But audiences are to blame too, because at this point in time you would have to be pretty unaware, to think that you can rely on network TV to inform you about what's going on in the world, when half of those 30 minutes are used for advertisments and the weather and another good portion for the details of murders and other crimes. But I digress.
