Hi L&H
Ask Eileen to sing, Are You Right There, Michael?
It's a funny folk song about the decrepit old West Clare
Railway which sued the composer, Percy French,
for libel; he counter-claimed for being made late for
an appointment, won his case and was awarded one penny
by the judge. Only in Ireland, God bless it.
What to you call an Irish double glazing salesman?
Paddy O'Doors.

John. yes you can be my hairdresser, ..hope your charges don't give us the same shock that our gas bill did today. :shock: :lol:
Hi Keith, i'll ask Eileen if she's heard "Are You Right There Michael".
Eileen unfortunately was behind schedule today Marian so we didn't have time to show her the joke, but if she hasn't been there herself you can bet she knows someone who has. :lol:
Here's another to go on with. .
Pat and Mike had been drinking pals for years and after a few pints in a bar Mick turns to pat and says.. We have been friends for years and if I should die before you do, would you do me a favour. ..
get the best bottle of Irish Whiskey and pour it over my grave.
Pat replied, ..I would be glad to do that for you my friend, but would you mind if I passed it through my bladder first. :lol: :lol:

Yet another joke..

EVEN GOD ENJOYS A GOOD LAUGH!

There were 3 good arguments that Jesus was Black:
1. He called everyone brother
2. He liked Gospel
3. He didn't get a fair trial
But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Jewish:
1. He went into His Father's business
2. He lived at home until he was 33
3. He was sure his Mother was a virgin and his Mother Was sure He was God
But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Italian:
1. He talked with His hands
2. He had wine with His meals
3. He used olive oil
But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was a Californian :
1. He never cut His hair
2. He walked around barefoot all the time
3. He started a new religion
But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was an American Indian :
1. He was at peace with nature
2.. He ate a lot of fish
3. He talked about the Great Spirit
But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Irish:
1. He never got married.
2. He was always telling stories.
3. He loved green pastures.
But the most compelling evidence of all - 3 proofs that Jesus was a woman:
1. He fed a crowd at a moment's notice when there was virtually no food
2. He kept trying to get a message across to a bunch of men who just Didn't get it
3. And even when He was dead, He had to get up because there was still Work to do.

14. I wondered why the baseball kept getting bigger. Then it hit me.

15. A sign on the lawn at a drug rehab center said: "Keep off the Grass."

PLAYFUL PUNS

I love the harmless fun
in a lighthearted pun,
and confess I often employ 'em;
they were good enough for Shakespeare
so I think that everyone
should let themselves go
and enjoy 'em.

'HELL HATH NO FURY ...'

A disillusioned husband, wearied of his loveless, incompatible
marriage, fell for and moved in with his sister-in-law. He left
a note for his wife:
'I'm fed up with our meaningless relationship, and I have left
you for your your sister, Carla.'
To which his wife wrote in reply:
'I'm sorry you felt it necessary to resort to such drastic, disloyal
action. I think you should know, however, that I have just won
£2 million on the Lottery, and by the way, Carla was named Carl
after she was born.'

Thanks, Mariana
However, I don't think Ed and I can expect
your plaudits for the following:

SHORTEST NOVEL EVER WRITTEN
God lay dying.

SECOND SHORTEST
One day, long, long, ago
there lived a woman who
did not whine, nag, or bitch.
But it was a long time ago,
and it was just that one day.

Keith :wink:

A novel is a work of fiction Marian(a), dictionary definition:
a feigned or false story. :wink: Now let us be ageist instead:

LOVEMAKING FOR SENIORS

(1) Wear your spectacles. Make sure your partner
is actually in bed.

(2) Set timer for three minutes, in case you doze off.

(3) Set mood with lighting, turn them all off.

(4) Put 999 on speed-dial before you begin.

(5) Write your partner's name on your hand
in case you can't remember.

(6) Keep Ploygrip close by so your teeth
don't end up under the bed.

(7) Have Tynenol ready in case you actually
complete the act.

(8) If it works, phone everyone with the good news.

(9) Don't even think about performing an encore.

(10) In large type to facilitate reading.

Keith :wink:
