Young girl from Donegal leaves home to find work
among the bright lights of London.
Comes home 6 months later and steps out of a taxi,
wearing a full-length mink coat.
"Begorrah, Colleen" says her mother "'Tis a lovely
soft coat yer wearin' - an' it looks so
expensive. Where did ye get that?"
Colleen replies, "Sure now, I won it at the bingo.
Don't they have wonderful prizes in London."
When the weekend's over, Colleen returns to the
bright lights, but she's back to visit her
mom a few months later.
This time, when she steps out of the taxi, she's
wearing a beautiful gold wristwatch and a
large diamond ring.
(Same exchange with mom -- same "Won it at bingo.
" Then Colleen returns to the bright lights once again.)
A few months later, she's back again. And this time
she's sporting a beautiful emerald and diamond
necklace with matching bracelet and earrings.
She hands her mother 1,000 pounds and
explains that she won it all at the bingo.
Then she asks her mom to run her a bath as
she needs to freshen up. Her mom draws the
bath while Colleen gets undressed
in her bedroom, but when she gets to the
washroom, there's only a quarter inch of hot
water in the bathtub. Colleen, a wee bit peeved
at her mom being so cheap with the hot water after being
handed 1,000 pounds, calls downstairs,
"Mom! Sure now didn't I ask you to run me a bath?
There's only a quarter inch of water in the tub!"
"Indade there is, me darlin'" replies her mom.
"But we don't want ye gettin' yer bingo
ticket wet now, do we?"

Sixteen year old boy from a tiny little village
in Ireland is the local football hero. Scores an
average of six goals every game himself.
Not too long before big English clubs are
making their way to his house to sign him.

guaranteeing him ten million pounds a year for five
years. When leaving home to go to Big City,

her door. Surprise! Chaffeur has airline

of house, and makes point of showing
her Fifi's bedroom, which is away at other
end of house from his bedroom.

all of this for scoring four goals in European
Cup Final couple of weeks ago. Fifi just the
housekeeper assigned to him. Sleeps in her
own bedroom etc. No romantic involvement whatsoever.
Mom has dinner with son, served by butler in
big fancy dining room. Mom admires silver
soup tureen on large silver tray, and highly
decorated silver ladle. Son explains that set
belonged to Napolean. Given to son by club
for scoring three goals in English FA Cup
final, few months ago. Mom very impressed.

she'd have found the bloody ladle by now!"

When Clinton visited the Pope, he noticed a red
phone on a small table in the corner of the office.

After several minutes of conversation, Clinton asked
the Pope what the red phone was.

The Holy Father told him that it was a very special
phone with a direct line to God. However, the Pope
told Clinton he rarely used it because it cost
$20,000 a minute from the Vatican.

Clinton accepted this explanation without another thought.

Later, when Clinton visited Ireland, he saw another
red phone in the Archbishop’s office. Being curious,
Clinton asked the Archbishop what it was used for.

The Archbishop told Clinton it was a direct line to God,
and he used it whenever he had a puzzling question or concern.

Clinton asked if the calls were quite expensive since
the Pope had to pay $20,000 a minute when he used
his red phone in the Vatican.

"Oh no," replied the Archbishop, "In Ireland it’s a local call."

A farmer named McBride lived along in the Irish
countryside with a pet dog he doted on. The dog
finally died and McBride went to the parish
priest and asked, "Father, the dog is dead.
Could you be saying a mass for the creature?"
Father Michael replied, "No, we cannot have
service for an animal in the church, but there's
a new denomination down the road. No telling
what they believe. Maybe they'll do something
for the animal."
McBride said "I'll go right now. Do you think
$50,000 is enough to donate for the service?"
Father Michael asked, "Why didn't you tell
me the dog was Catholic?"

didn't have anyone to dig his garden for his potatoes.
So he wrote to his son about his predicament.
The son sent the reply, "For HEAVENS SAKE,
don't dig the garden up, that's where I buried
the guns!!!!!"
At 3 AM the next morning, a dozen British soldiers
turned up and dug the garden for 3 hours,
but didn't find any guns.
Confused, the man wrote to his son telling him
what had happened, asking him what he should do now?
The son sent the reply: "NOW plant the potatoes!"

An Irishman's been at a pub all night drinking.
The bartender finally says that the bar is closed.
So he stands up to leave and falls flat on his face.
He figures he'll crawl outside and get some
fresh
air and maybe that will sober him up.
Once outside he stands up and falls flat on his
face.
So he crawls home and at the door stands up and
falls
flat on his face. He crawls through the door and
up the stairs.
When he reaches his bed he tries one more time
to stand up.
This time he falls right into bed and is sound
asleep.
He awakens the next morning to his wife standing
over him shouting at him.
"So, you've been out drinking again!"
"How did you know?" he asks.
"The pub called, you left your damn wheelchair there again."

A group of Americans was touring Ireland.
One of the women in the group was a real curmudgeon, constantly complaining.
The bus seats are uncomfortable. The food is terrible.
It's too hot. It's too cold. The accommodations are awful.
The group arrived at the site of the famous Blarney Stone.
"Good luck will be followin' ya all your days
if you kiss the Blarney Stone,"the guide said.
"Unfortunately, it's being cleaned today
and so no one will be able to kiss it.
Perhaps we can come back tomorrow."
"We can't be here tomorrow," the nasty woman shouted.
"We have some other boring tour to go on.
So I guess we can't kiss the stupid stone."
"Well now," the guide said, "it is said that if you kiss someone
who has kissed the stone, you'll have the same good fortune."
"And I suppose you've kissed the stone," the woman scoffed.
"No, ma'am," the frustrated guide said, "but I've sat on it."
