Bragging The Accident “Of course you can come in, you're always welcome, Tim. But where's me husband?” “That's what I'm here to be tellin' ya, Brenda. There was an accident down at the Guinness brewery...” “Oh, God no!” cries Brenda. “Please don't tell me...” “I must, Brenda. Your husband Shamus is dead and gone. I'm sorry.” Finally, she looked up at Tim. “How did it happen, Tim?” “It was terrible, Brenda. He fell into a vat of Guinness Stout and drowned.” “Oh my dear Jesus! But you must tell me true, Tim.

Traffic Stop “So,” says the cop to the driver, “where have you been?” “Why, I've been to the pub of course,” slurs the drunk. “Well,” says the cop, “It looks like you've had quite a few to drink this evening.” “I did all right,” the drunk says with a smile. “Did you know,” says the cop, standing straight and folding his arms across his chest, “that a few intersections back, your wife fell out of your car?” “Oh, thank heavens,” sighs the drunk. “For a minute there, I thought I’d gone deaf.” Irish Prayer Irish Shopping “S’cuse me,” said a customer, who was puzzled over what McQuillan had done, “what was that all about?” “Nothin’,” said the Irishman, “my wife just sent me out for a jar of olives!” You've Been Out Drinking Again He tried to stand one more time; same result. He figured he'll crawl outside and get some fresh air and maybe that will sober him up. Once outside, he stood up and fell on his face again. So he decided to crawl the four blocks home. When he arrived at the door he stood up and fell flat on his face. He crawled through the door and into his bedroom. When he reached his bed he tried one more time to stand up. This time he managed to pull himself upright, but he quickly fell right into the bed and is sound asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow. He was awakened the next morning to his wife standing over him, shouting, “SO YOU'VE BEEN DRINKING AGAIN!” Putting on an innocent look, and intent on bluffing it out he said, “What makes you say that?” “The pub just called; you left your wheelchair there again.” I’ve Lost Me Luggage The Reunion Curious, the first asks: “Where in Ireland?” “Dublin,” comes the reply. “I can't believe it, Me too! Lets have another round of drinks to Dublin.” “Of course!” The second man can't help himself so he asks, “What school did you attend?” “Saint Mary's,” replies the first man. “I graduated in ‘62.” “This is becoming unbelievable!!!” They say in union. About that time, in comes one of the regulars and sits down at the bar. “What's up?” he asks the bartender. “Nothing much,” replied the bartender. “The O'Malley twins are drunk again!” The Brothel Then they saw a rabbi enter the brothel, and the other Irishman said, “Aye, ‘tis a shame to see that the Jews are fallin’ victim to temptation.” Then they saw a catholic priest enter the brothel, and one of the Irishmen said, “What a terrible pity... one of the girls must be quite ill.” Lost at Sea Secretly hoping that a genie would appear, he rubbed the lamp vigorously. To the amazement of Patrick, a genie came forth. This particular genie, however, stated that he could only deliver one wish, not the standard three. Without giving much thought to the matter, Patrick blurted out, “Make the entire ocean into Guinness Beer!” The genie clapped his hands with a deafening crash, and immediately the entire sea turned into the finest brew ever sampled by mortals. Simultaneously, the genie vanished. Only the gentle lapping of Guinness on the hull broke the stillness as the two men considered their circumstances. Michael looked disgustedly at Patrick whose wish had been granted. After a long, tension-filled moment, he spoke: “Nice going Patrick! Now we’re going to have to pee in the boat.” After I’m Gone O’Malley was shocked and saddened, though of solid character, he managed to compose himself and walk from the doctor's office into the waiting room. To his son who had been waiting, O’Malley said, “Well son, we Irish celebrate when things are good, and we celebrate when things don’t go so well. In this case, things aren't so well. I have cancer. Let’s head for the pub and have a pint or two.” After three or four pints, the two were feeling a little less somber. There were some laughs and more beers. They were eventually approached by some of O’Malley’s old friends who asked what the two were celebrating. O’Malley told them that the Irish celebrate the good and the bad. He went on to tell them that they were drinking to his impending end. He told his friends, “I have been diagnosed with AIDS.” The friends gave O’Malley their condolences and they had a couple more beers. After his friends left, O’Malley's son whispered his confusion. “Dad, I thought you said that you were dying from cancer. You just told your friends that you were dying from AIDS!” O’Malley said, “Aye, that I did because I don’t want any of them sleeping with your mother after I'm gone.” Parking Space Miraculously, a parking place appeared. Paddy looked up again and said, "Never mind, I found one." Go To Heaven The man said, "I do, Father." The priest said, "Then stand over there against the wall." Then the priest asked the second man, "Do you want to go to heaven?" "Certainly, Father," was the man's reply. "Then stand over there against the wall," said the priest. Then Father Murphy walked up to O'Toole and said, "Do you want to go to O'Toole said, "No, I don't Father." The priest said, "I don't believe this. You mean to tell me that when O'Toole said, "Oh, when I die, yes. I thought you were getting a group together to go right now." Pedestrians He'd done this several times, and Paddy still stood on the sidewalk. After the cop had shouted, "Pedestrians!" for the tenth time, Paddy went Obituary "Did you see the paper?" asked Gallagher. "They say I died!!" "Yes, I saw it!" replied Finney. "Where are ye callin' from?" Encore He says, "Sir, have you been drinking?" "Just water," says the priest. The trooper says, "Then why do I smell wine?" The priest looks at the bottle and says, "Good Lord! He's done it again!" The Fight "Oh yeah?" said Charlie, "And how did this one end?" "When it was over," Mike replied, "She came to me on her hands and knees. "Really," said Charles, "Now that's a switch! What did she say?" She said, "Come out from under the bed, you little chicken." Quiet! He tiptoed as quietly as he could toward the stairs leading to their upstairs bedroom, but misjudged the bottom step As he caught himself by grabbing the banister, his body swung around and he landed heavily on his rump. A whiskey bottle in each back pocket broke and made the landing especially painful. Managing not to yell, Flynn sprung up, pulled down his pants, and looked in the hall mirror to see that his butt cheeks were cut and bleeding. He managed to quietly find a full box of Band-Aids and began putting a Band-Aid as best he could on each place he saw blood. He then hid the now almost empty Band-Aid box and shuffled and stumbled his way to bed. In the morning, Flynn woke up with searing pain in both his head and butt and Mary staring at him from across the room. She said, "You were drunk again last night weren't you?" Flynn said, "Why you say such a mean thing?" "Well," Mary said, "it could be the open front door, it could be the broken glass at the bottom of the stairs, it could be the drops of blood trailing through the house, it could be your bloodshot eyes, but mostly... it's all those Band-Aids stuck on the hall mirror. Ten Commandments After Mass, the priest caught up with Murphy and said, "Murphy, I am so glad you decided to come to Mass, what made you come?" Murphy said, "I got to be honest with you Father, a while back, I misplaced me hat and I really, really love that hat. I know that McGlynn The priest said, "Well, Murphy, I notice that you didn't steal McGlynn's hat. What changed your mind?" Murphy said, "Well, after I heard your sermon on the 10 Commandments, I decided that I didn't need to steal McGlynn's hat." The priest gave Murphy a big smile and said; "After I talked about 'Thou Shalt Not Steal' you decided you would rather do without your hat Murphy shook his head and said, "No, Father, after you talked about 'Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery' I remembered where I left me hat." |
