Red Sweater a short story…It was St.Patrick’s day in Chicago.Colin Murphy was out having a beer at O’toole’s pub.The night was resplendent with crisp spring air and a gentle breeze that pervaded the open door pub on Diversy Street.A large man sat next to Colin.He was wearing a red sweater.This irked Colin.Colin Murphy always wore green on St. Patrick’s day.Shortly thereafter Colin remarked “why are ye wearing red on St.Paddies day boyo?” The man swung wildly at Colin and then he responded with a right cross.No love lost on March 17 ‘th I guess.
