    [Please read message at bottom when you're done]

    1.Where do you find an Irish woodworm?
    Dead inside a brick.

    2.How do know if a fish is Irish?
    It has drowned.

    3.How do you get an Irishman to burn his ear?
    Ring him up while he is ironing.

    4.How do you keep an Irishman busy?
    Write P.T.O on both sides of a piece of paper.

    5.How do you spot an Irishman at a car wash?
    He's the one on the bike.

    6.How do you sink an Irish Submarine?
    Knock on the hatch.

    7.How do you confuse an Irishman?
    Put him in a round room and tell him to sit in the corner.

    8.There was an Irishman, an Englishman and Claudia Schiffer sitting together in a carriage in a train going through Tasmania. Suddenly the train went through a tunnel and as it was an old style train, there were no lights in the carriages and it went completely dark. Then there was this kissing noise and the sound of a really loud slap.

    When the train came out of the tunnel, Claudia Schiffer and the Irishman were sitting as if nothing had happened and the Englishman had his hand against his face as he had been slapped there. The Englishman was thinking: 'The Irish fella must have kissed Claudia Schiffer and she missed him and slapped me instead.' Claudia Schiffer was thinking: 'The English fella must have tried to kiss me and actually kissed the Irishman and got slapped for it.' And the Irishman was thinking: 'This is great. The next time the train goes through a tunnel I'll make another kissing noise and slap that English bastard again!'

    9.A pregnant Irish woman from Dublin was in a car accident and fell into a deep coma. The coma continued for nearly 6 months, but then she suddenly woke up, alarmed to find that she was no longer pregnant. Frantic, she asked the doctor about her baby.

    The doctor replied, "You had twins! A boy and a girl. Your brother from Cork came in and named them."

    This caused the woman some concern, with the thought -- "Oh no, not my brother... he's an idiot!" -- flashing through her mind. With some trepidation, she asked the doctor, "Well, what's the girl's name?"

    "Denise."

    "Wow, that's not a bad name, I like it! What's the boy's name?"

    "Denephew."

    10.An Irishman's been drinking at a pub all night. The bartender finally says
    that the bar is closing. So the Irishman stands up to leave and falls flat
    on his face. He tries to stand one more time, same result. 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 decides to crawl
    the 4 blocks to his home and when he arrives at the door he stands up and
    falls flat on his face. He crawls through the door into his bedroom. When he
    reaches his bed he tries one more time to stand up.

    This time he manages to pull himself upright but he quickly falls right into
    bed and is sound asleep as soon as his head hits the pillow. He awakens the
    next morning to his wife standing over him shouting at him.

    "So, you've been out drinking again!!"

    "What makes you say that?" he asks as he puts on an innocent look.

    "The pub called, you left your wheelchair there again."

    I have plenty more so if ya want them just ask

    Why did the chicken cross the road ?-The Irish version ! 

    Question: Why did the chicken cross the road? 

    SINN FEIN: That would be a matter for the chicken. Sinn Fein and the chicken 
    are not part of the same organisation, although we share some ideals. If 
    there are presently any chickens in Sinn Fein, we are not aware of it. 

    ORANGE ORDER: The chicken is entitled to walk in a peaceful manner on the 
    Queen's Highway. It's a traditional route. Anyone who tries to deny the 
    chicken his rights to walk on the road will find the road blocked at both 
    ends until the chicken is allowed to walk in a dignified and non-threatening 
    manner, without accompanying bands if need be. 

    DUP: We are implacably opposed to the chicken crossing the road until the 
    chicken's armaments have been removed and the chicken itself declares it's 
    diabolical intentions. 

    IRA: On behalf of the people of Ireland, we reserve the right to defend the 
    roads of the island against the chicken. For 800 years the Irish People have 
    resisted the imposition of chickens by force of arms and shall continue to 
    do so until the chicken is expelled from our land. Anyone collaborating with 
    the chicken, or assisting or enabling the imposition of road crossing by 
    chickens, will be deemed legitimate targets in our struggle against 
    tyranny. 

    UFF: We, the loyal defenders of Ulster roads, reserve our right to 
    retaliate against any precipitory hostile actions by the chicken. We shall 
    meet this with deadly force. (A donation to the Loyalist Prisoners 
    Association will ensure free passage of the chicken with respect to the road 
    and the crossing thereof, till the same time next month anyhow. Do chickens 
    have kneecaps?) 

    UUP/SDLP Joint statement: We believe that only by working together in 
    unison, and with the majority of the people of this island, the British and 
    Irish Governments and our friends overseas behind us, can we find the answer 
    to this question. If we do not, or cannot, then our children will rightfully 
    ask us the question, 'So why did the chicken cross the road?' 

    THE HOME SECRETARY, UK GOV.: While not normally commenting on security 
    matters, Her Majesty's Government feels it is right and proper, in this 
    instance, to make a statement on this affair. - Members of the Special Air 
    Services involved in a covert anti-terrorist operation on the road at 8:42 
    this morning observed the chicken attempting to cross the road. As the 
    chicken was approached by one of the soldiers involved, it was seen to make 
    a threatening movement and action was taken to nullify that action. It has 
    not been ascertained why the chicken was crossing the road, and it seems 
    unlikely that we will now discover the motive.

    An Englishman, a Scotsman and an Irishman were without tickets
    for the opening ceremonies of the summer Olympics but hoped to
    be able to talk their way in ate the gate. Security was very
    tight, however, and each of their attempts was met with a
    stern refusal.

    While wandering around outside the stadium, the Englishman
    came upon construction site, which gave him an idea. Grabbing
    a length of scaffolding, he presented himself at the gate and
    said, "Johnson, the pole vault," and was admitted.

    The Scotsman, overhearing this, went at once to search the
    site. When he came up with a sledge hammer, he presented
    himself at the gate and said, "McTavish, the hammer." He was
    also admitted.

    The Irishman combed the site for an hour and was nearly ready
    to give up when he spotted his ticket in. Seizing a roll of
    chain link, he presented himself at the gate and announced,
    "O'Sullivan, fencing."

    A irish man is sitting at a bar having a few drinks when he notices
    a very attractive lady sit down at the other end of the bar and
    order a drink.  The irish guy calls the bartender over and says
    "whatever she is drinking give her another one and tell her
    it is on me."

    The bartender replies "I don't think you want to do that."
    "What do you mean?" yells the irish guy,  "Send her the drink!"
    "O.K." the bartender replies, "but I don't think it is a good idea."
    "And why not?" asks the irish guy.
    The bartender leans over the bar and very softly says "because she's
    a lesbian."

    "I don't care, send her the drink." says the irish guy.
    So after the lady gets her drink the irish guy very casually strolls
    down to the other end of the bar and sits down next to her and says,
    "so what part of Lesbia are you from?"

    A young Irish lad had fallen in love with a girl and felt the relationship
    had gone far enough to take her home to meet his family.

    So, one fine Sunday evening the lad, his lady friend and the rest of the
    family (17 or so people) were gathered around the dining room
    table. The matriarch or the family asked the lad's girlfriend, "So, tell me,
    lass, what is your occupation?"

    The girl hesitated and said, "Well, Mrs. O'Malley, I'm a prostitute."

    Immediately the lad's mother fainted and was surrounded by a dozen family
    members who splashed her face with water which brought her back around. She
    returned to her seat and the family calmed down and resumed the meal. At
    that point the mother asked again, "Forgive me, dearie. I don't think I
    heard you correctly.... what is your
    occupation?"

    Again the girl answered, "Mrs. O'Malley, I'm a prostitute."

    The mother laughed and said, "Oh my, dearie, for a moment there I thought
    you said you were a PROTESTANT!"
