Harry was finally going to be a groom and he was excited about his upcoming marriage.

As he was leaving the office, Harry noticed his boss was walking over, his large hand outstretched.

While Charley was at a marriage seminar, everyone was telling how long they'd been married. Charley said that he and his wife had been married for almost fifty years.

"That is so neat!" said the group's leader. "Could you share some of your insights?"

"It's just that I treat my wife well, buy her gifts, take her on trips," Charley answered. "For our twentieth anniversary I took her down to the Bahamas."

"That's such a moving inspiration for us all!" said the leader. "What are you going to do for your next anniversary?" she said.

Years ago in Ireland, there was a priest who was very anti-British. Every Sunday he'd blast them from the pulpit. He became so notorious that the Pope summoned the priest to Rome.

"Now look here, Father," said the Pope, "We want peace between the British and the Irish. You are not helping matters at all. Kiss my ring and then swear by the Virgin that you'll never ever mention the British again."

"But ... " the priest stammered.

"No buts," said the Pope. "Swear here and swear now or there'll be official trouble!"

"Aye, Holy Father," frowned the father. "All right."

The very next Sunday was Easter, and the caustic priest was back in the pulpit giving the annual Easter sermon.

He got to the part of the Easter story where Jesus said, "And so now one of you will betray Me."

The priest continued: "Then Saint Andrew lept up and said, 'Tis me Lord?' and the Lord said, 'Nay, Andy darlin'. Here now, sit down and dunna worry.'

"Then Saint John got up with tears in his eyes and cried, 'Or me Lord?' And the Lord said, 'Nay Nay, relax Johnny me boy, it's not you. Here now, sit down and dunna fret.'

"And then that wicked worthless mongrel Judas Iscariot slowly rose to his feet. And when he looked at the Lord he said, 'Blimey, Mate. Are ya thinking it's me?"

An Irishman moves into a tiny hamlet, walks into the pub and orders three beers.

The bartender draws the man three pints which he drinks alone.

An hour later he orders three more. This happens yet again.

The next evening the Irishman again orders the usual three pints at a time. And again. Soon the entire town is whispering about Old Three Pints.

A few days later, the bartender broaches the subject guardedly. "I sure don't mean to pry, okay? We're just wondering why is it do you always get three pints?" he says.

The man replies, "I've two brothers, you see. Paddy is in America, and Neil is in Australia. We always get some beers for each other to maintain the family bond."

With this answer Old Three Pints became a local celebrity and source of pride to the town.

Then, one day, he walks in and orders only two pints. The bartender pours them with a heavy heart. This went on the whole night. The word flies around town.

The next day, the bartender says, "We'd all just wanted to offer our sympathy to you for the loss of your brother. You know... two pints and all..."

The man ponders this a moment, and replies, "Oh Paddy and Neil are alive and well. It's just that I, myself, have decided to give up drinking for Lent."

The 80 year old Mother Superior from Ireland was dying. The nuns were gathered around the bed trying to make her last journey comfortable.

They tried to give her some warm milk but she refused it. One of them, Sister Savanna, took the glass back to the pantry.

Finding a bottle of Irish whiskey that they'd received as a gift the previous Christmas, Savanna opened it and poured a generous amount into the glass.

Back at the Mother Superior's bed, she held the glass to her lips. Mother had a little, then a bit more and before long she had drank the whole glass down to the last drop.

"Mother," they softly implored in earnest, "Can you please give us some of your wisdom before you go with God."

The Mother eased herself up in bed and with a look of sure piety said, "Don't sell that cow."

Not so long ago, Peter, an old German man was feeling guilty about something he had done, so he decided to confess.

"Oh, forgive my sins, Father. I feel rather terrible because during the war I hid a sorry refugee in the darkness of my attic." he pled.

The understanding padre spoke, "Oh, but that's no sin! Look, I wouldn't feel bad about that."

"But I made the poor man pay me 80 Marks for every week he stayed there."

The padre assured him, "So honestly, it wasn't the most noble thing to do, I suppose; charging to keep him secret. But remember you did help save his life, after all, and that's something at least. Don't worry over it so; Lord Jesus shows mercy."

Thrilled, Peter said, "Oh thank you, Father! That has totally eased my furrowed brow. So, one other thing to ask... do I have to tell him the war's over?"

"Ah, not to worry, Fergus" says the bartender. "Here, stick a twenty in your pocket and just tell her someone puked on you and gave you some cash to cover the cleaning bill."

So Fergus goes on home and tells his wife about this guy who puked all over him. She reaches into his pocket and finds two twenties. "Uh huh. And why are there two twenties?" she says.

Fergus replies, "Oh, yeah. And that guy crapped in my pants, too!"

A police officer arrives upon an evidently terrible rush-hour crash; driver and passenger were both dead. As he looks upon the massively brutal carnage a little monkey labors out unhurt; it hops near the car.

Somberly, he looks at the monkey and says, "If only you could talk, you adorable rascal." The monkey looks up at the officer and bobs his head up and down.

"You really understand me?" asks the officer. Again, the monkey bobs his head at the officer.

"Did you see it all?"

"Yes," motions the monkey.

"What's happened?"

The monkey pretends to have a can and turns it up beside his mouth. "They'd been drinking?" asks the officer.

"Yes."

"Right. What else?"

The monkey pinches his fingers together and holds them near his mouth. "Damn! Smoking marijuana?"

"Yes."

"Right. What else?"

The little monkey motions, "Screwing."

"Dear Lord! Screwing, too?" mutters the astounded officer.

"Yes."

"Let's see... they were drinking, smoking and screwing before they crashed?"

"Yes."

"What were you doing during all this?"

"Driving" motions the monkey.

Mickey O'Reilly walks into a bar when he is obviously very drunk and staggers up to the bar. Then he seats himself unsteadily on a stool and he orders a drink.

The bartender says to Mickey, "Seems you have had plenty enough to drink, but I can happily phone you a ride if you want me to."

Mickey softly scoffs. He climbs off the stool, and then uneasily staggers out. Just a few minutes later, he stumbles in the side door. He staggers up and he orders a drink.

The bartender comes over, again refusing service to Mickey, again offering to call a ride. Mickey eyes the bartender angrily for a moment and he shows himself out the side door.

Then a few minutes later, Mickey drunkenly staggers in through the back door. He then plops himself up on a stool, and he orders a drink.

The bartender reminds Mickey that he is entirely drunk so he won't get served. He then warns that he could phone the police instead.

Mickey looks at him and cries in hopeless anguish, "How many bloody bars do you work at anyhow?!"
