Eman, I think we could all do with a good laugh;
I hope the following does the trick:
MULTIPLE MURPHYS
Murphy's missus had been pregnant for the full gestation period,
so now the miraculous maternal moment had arrived.
The doctor began the home birth procedure.
Mrs Murphy gave birth to a boy; the doctor gazed meaningfully
at the proud dad and declared: 'Hey Murph, you have a son
and heir!'
'That's grand altogether,' beamed Murphy.
'Hold on, we're not finished yet,' implored the animated doctor
who then began delivering a second baby:
'Hey Murph, you have a daughter!'
Murphy received this bit of news with a degree
of consternation as the doctor adopted repeat mode:
'Hold on we're not finished yet,' as he delivered
a third baby. 'Murph, you have another son!'
By now Murphy was suffering from parental overload:
'Doc, what caused all dem babies?'
'Probably something that happened during conception.'
Later as the unexpectedly enlarged but happy family
absorbed their new circumstances Murphy confided to his wife:
'Mammy, do you remember that night when we ran out
of vaseline and had to resort to three-in-one oil?'
'Oh, sure I'll never forget that night,' she replied wistfully.
'I'll tell you what, isn't it a very good ting we didn't use
WD-40?'
