whay do people have rubber ducks on st pattys day?

Q:

A: Perhaps you are overwhelmed with the plethora of rubber ducks available today? There is no need to pull out your hair, because there is a perfect ducky to represent your innermost feelings and carry the symbolism, meaning, and poetic justice that only rubber duckies may fulfill. Throughout history, civilization has yearned for friendship and nothing demonstrated friendship more than the production of the rubber ducky. In the 1800s the processes and equipment were finally invented that gave rise to the spectacular rubber ducky. No one is certain where the idea came from, but today the rubber ducky is a pillar of American pop culture. Rubber Duckies adorn the baby nursery, the dining room, and the bath areas. They have become extremely popular table and bath decor. From gifts to collectibles, rubber duckies have been designed to fit every occasion. With golden beards, four leaf clovers, and derbies, these Irish Rubber Ducks will aid in the St. Patrick's Day celebrations. I can almost hear them singing their sweet Irish songs.
