I just discovered my own humble birthday (shared by Andrew Stuttaford, Myrna Blyth, Orrin Hatch, and William Shatner) will be Holy Saturday this year. But the sacrifices that entails pale in comparison to the green cross to bear that week: St. Patrick’s Day falls during Holy Week and this is a matter of great concern for many Catholics, Irish or not. I suspect Fifth Avenue won’t notice the calendar complication.
