Been Out Drinking Again"

on his face. 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

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?"

"Lost at Sea"
Two Irishmen, Patrick
& Michael, were adrift in a lifeboat following a dramatic
escape from a burning freighter. While rummaging through the
boat's provisions, Patrick stumbled across an old lamp. 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."

"The Irish Sinner"
"Bless me Father,
for I have sinned. I have not been to confession for sixmonths.
On top of that, I've been with a loose woman."
The priest sighs. "Is
that you, little Tommy O'Shaughnessy?"
"Yes, Father, 'tis I."
"And who might be the woman you were with?"
"I shan't be tellin' you, Father. It would ruin her reputation."
"Well, Tommy, I'm bound to find out sooner or later, so
you may as well tell me now. Was it Brenda O'Malley?"
"I cannot say."
"Was it Patricia Fitzgerald?"
"I'll never tell."
"Was it Bridget O'Shanter?"
"I'm sorry, but I'll not name her."
"Was it Cathy O'Dell?"
"My lips are sealed."
"Was it Fiona Mallory, then?"
"Please, Father, I cannot tell you."
The priest sighs in frustration.
"You're a steadfast lad, Tommy O'Shaughnessy, and I admire
that. But, you've sinned, and you must atone. Be off with you
now."
Tommy walks back to his
pew. His friend, Sean, slides over and whispers,"What'd
you get?"
"Five more good leads"

"Those Irish Baptist's"
An Irishman walks into
a bar in Dublin, orders three pints of Guinness and sits in the
back of the room, drinking a sip out of each one in turn. When
he finishes them, he comes back to the bar and orders three more.
The bartender approaches
and tells him, "You know, a pint goes flat after I draw
it, it would taste better if you bought one at a time."The
Irishman replies, 'Well, you see, I have two brothers. One is
in America, the other is in Australia, and I'm in Dublin. When
we all left home, we promised that we'd drink this way to remember
the days we drank together. So I drink one for each o'me brothers
and one for me self."The bartender admits that this is a
nice custom, and leaves it there.
The Irishman becomes
a regular in the bar, and always drinks the same way: He orders
three pints and drinks them in turn.
One day, he comes in
and orders two pints. All the other regulars take notice and
fall silent. When he comes back to the bar for the second round,
the bartender says, "I don't want to intrude on your grief,
but I wanted to offer my condolences on your loss."
The Irishman looks quite
puzzled for a moment, then a light dawns and he laughs. "Oh,
no, everybody's just fine," He explains, "It's just
that me wife had us join that Baptist Church and I had to quit
drinking. Hasn't affected me brothers though."
