Father Ryan has just given one of his best sermons ever. It's a beautiful Irish Spring day, with the sun out and birds singing. After the Mass, Father is on the steps of the church, enjoying God's Spring wealth, when he hears an argument coming from the shrubbery to the side of the church.
As he goes around side, he see two leprechauns fighting it out:
L1: "T'was! (shouts the first) L2: T'was NOT!!! (replies the other) L1: T'was SO! L2: T'was NOT!!!!
Back and forth they go with a punch or two being thrown.
Not wanting to have this beautiful Sunday spoiled, Father breaks up the two.
Father: Boys! Boys! What's all the kafuffle on this most glorious of God's days???? L1: Father? Is there such a thing as a leprechaun nun? Father: Well, lads, I am sorry to say there t'isn't. Is that what you two have been fighting about? L1: Yes, Father. Seen Michael? I told you that you were makin' love to a penguin!!! L2: T'was NOT L1" T'was so!!!!
And on they go......
Happy St. Patrick’s day.
Oh, wait, you said tale...sorry.
“God invented whiskey so the Irish wouldn’t rule the world “
From me Grandma, Agnes O’Brien
Why aren’t there more Irish attorneys?
They can’t pass the bar.
My favorite St. Pattie’s prayer:
To all you freeper types,
MAY YOU BE IN HEAVEN HALF AN HOUR
BEFORE THE DEVIL KNOWS YOU’RE DEAD!
Several of these jokes just go to demonstrate a basic truism - God invented whiskey to prevent the Irish from ruling the world.

Obama to be presented with proof of Irish ancestry (Belfast Telegraph 3/17/09 Belfast Telegraph Staff)
US President Barack Obama is to be presented with a copy of baptismal records which prove his Offaly connections.Taoiseach Brian Cowen will hand-deliver a photograph of Templeharry Church in Moneygall, where Obama's great-great-great-grandfather was baptised, along with parish records and a picture of the schoolhouse his ancestors attended.
Mr Cowen will also extend an invitation to President Obama to visit Ireland and to Moneygall during his St Patrick's Day visit to the White House.
I don't even think that Barack Obama (Junior) was ever baptized (unless it was done at Jeremiah Wright's church).
There's No One As Irish As Barack Obama (You Tube 1/18/09 The Corrigan Brothers)

Beat me to it . . . .

And those that don’t, can go to hell

Thanks......I think. Do I get a lovely parting gift?
As a bagpiper, I was asked by a funeral director to play at a graveside service for a homeless man who had no family or friends. The funeral was to be held at a cemetery in the remote countryside and this man would be the first to be laid to rest there.
As I was not familiar with the backwoods area, I became lost and being a typical man, did not stop for directions. I finally arrived an hour late. I saw the backhoe and the crew who were eating lunch but the hearse was nowhere in sight.
I apologized to the workers for my tardiness and stepped to the side of the open grave where I saw the vault lid already in place.
I assured the workers I would not hold them up for long but this was the proper thing to do. The workers gathered around, still eating their lunch. I played out my heart and soul.
As I played the workers began to weep. I played and I played like I’d never played before, from Going Home and The Lord is My Shepherd to Flowers of the Forest . I closed the lengthy session with Amazing Grace and walked to my car.
As I was opening the door and taking off my coat, I overheard one of the workers saying to another, “Sweet Jeezuz, Mary’n Joseph, I never seen nothin’ like that before and I’ve been putting in septic tanks for twenty years.”
I don’t often laugh out loud at work, mainly because I work for the federal government, and mirth is discouraged here. But that one had tears coming to my eyes!!!!
