I HEAR HE'S REALLY BIG IN IRELAND

America's favorite drunken Irish paratrooper, Matty O'Blackfive (aka Paddy O'Tatertot) has passed through many milestones on his path to the rockstar-like fame that he currently enjoys.

His first job, was, of course, as an Army paratrooper.

After his discharge, he worked briefly as the spokesman for Pillsbury (who liked him so much that they continue to use his image today).

Then he started a really crappy blog with broken permalinks, got fed up, got a REAL blog, popularized the fly mint green shirt (more minty goodness here), and wrote a book (ok, THE book).

Yet through it all, one prize eluded him - getting his face on a cereal box.

Unfortunately, Wheaties has a very strict "No Irish Need Apply" policy, so he'll never make it there, but he DID finally manage to get the Irish equivalent:

Congratulations, Matt. You deserve it.

And Happy St. Patrick's Day!
