I think that this thread needs some Enya or Clannad.

I had to dig through a heap of old e-mails, but I knew I had a good 'engineer' joke (Hey, I'm one of those geeks too!) to add to yours a few posts back.

Three guys -- a Canadian farmer, Osama bin Laden,
and an American engineer -- are working together one
day. They come across a lantern and a Genie pops
out of it. "I will give each of you one wish, which
is three wishes total," says the Genie.

The Canadian says, "I am a farmer, my dad was a
farmer, and my son will also farm. I want the land
to be forever fertile in Canada." Pooooof! With
the blink of the Genie's eye, the land in Canada was
forever made fertile for farming.

Osama bin Ladin was amazed, so he said, "I want a
wall around Afghanistan, Iraq and Iran so that no
infidels, Jews or Americans can come into our
precious state." Pooooof! Again, with the blink of
the Genie's eye, there was a huge wall around those
countries.

The American engineer says, "I am very curious.
Please tell me more about this wall." The Genie
explains, "Well, it's about 5000 feet high, 500 feet
thick and completely surrounds the country. Nothing
can get in or out -- it's virtually impenetrable."

The American engineer says, "Fill it with water."

I think I love Irish jokes best because they take me back to my childhood listening to uncles with the proper accent. Brogue?

Cool!

Well, my Guinness didn't taste that good when I started it, but it's tasting much better right now.

You should try Murphy's, it's not as bitter.
And I hope you're not drinking from a pint glass. You see, a lady takes her stout from a proper 12 oz. glass.
Though I was always met with much resistance when I suggested this in Éire's pubs, (he said half-kiddingly).

Friend of yours? lol

Well, I know a person or two who is that blunt... :-)

[Victoria Delsoul]

[kstewskis]

Something I remember about Irish eyes....??? LOL!!

(See my earlier post...I just can't remember which one now! HAR!)

Drinking from a glass... hope it's OK. ;-)

Guinness isn't too bitter, just thick!

Did you hear about the Irish newlyweds who sat up all night on their honeymoon waiting for their sexual relations to arrive?

Still waitin'?

Happy St.Patrick Day everyone!!!

Not to be a killjoy, but shouldn't the font be red, to better suit the Red Dragon of Wales?

[kstewskis]

Brogue?

Aye!
