Leprechauns on a Plane

Video:

The movie buff in you probably recognizes the parallel of the title of this video and the movie Snakes on a Plane, but does the historian in you make the connection of the actual St. Patrick and snakes? Legend credits Patrick with banishing snakes from Ireland, though evidence suggests that the post-glacial island never had snakes. Enough about snakes and saints, this video is a fun look at two very fun LUVing Employees who were willing to dress up as Leprechauns and go out in public!

Am I missing something...? The video won't load for me in Firefox or IE - just shows up as a white box! I see videos on all other sites...

Casey, that is a puzzle. We have IE and it looks fine. Could you be behind a firewall of somekind?

Ray "of Sunshine" Buffington, you put me to shame! My leprechaun spirit really hit full force around 10 am...hadn't had me lucky charms yet on that first flight. I will work on my Irish accent by only watching Liam Neeson films for the next year.

Paula Berg,

This is Justin Blomgren from over at the BlomBlog. I received your message today on my blog, and I was searching for a way to get in touch with you. I would love to talk to you more about a partnership with our blogs. Possibly ads or other forms of publicity? Or if you had any other ideas just let me know. I am a huge fan of Southwest. Thanks

-Justin

Hey, Justin - YOU FOUND ME! Sorry...wasn't trying to make it hard on you :)
Just sent you an email, but not sure if I had your address right. If you didn't receive, feel free to drop me another link,

I can't belive I never thought of Ray "of Sunshine" Buffington...nice.

LR - I thought your half-hearted enthusiasm in contrast to Ray's all-out performance really added to the entertainment value of the video. That, and your socks.
