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......
LOL awesome. I actually DID give up alcohol for Lent, not sure I’ll try this one though.
? was that a joke?
My buddy (who actually plays the pipes at funerals sent me that this morning ... he had me hook and crook...
What a coincidence! 0bama makes me turn green too!
I give up alcohol for Lent every year. Most times I make it. I learned early on that giving up beer wouldn’t work, because I’d just switch to the hard stuff on Day 1.
I about blew out my sinuses refraining from a genuine LOL in cubicle land!
Almost Jameson or Bushmill’s time!
That line was used in the TV movie: Crossfire Trail, by Rock Mullaney played by David O’Hara, who was born in Glasgow, Scotland.
The movie starred Tom Selleck, it was made in 2001 and was a very good movie, I have the DVD.
As he stands at the urinal, he can't help but notice the man next to him is only three feet tall.
And since his eyes are directed downwards next to him, he can't help but notice the the other customer's massive endowment looks a little, well, greenish in the dim light.
"Pardon me, sir" he says, "but I couldn't help noticing - what with your modest stature, and that green" - he gestures downward - "but are you a Leprechaun?"
"And if you are, and I've got you, don't you have to grant me a wish?"
The little man looks up at him, and says, "Aye, me boy, I AM a Leprechaun. And I kin grant ye a wish, too! Anything ye want! But first you've got to get down unpon ye knees and make an old Leprechaun very happy!"
Well, our hero isn't too thrilled at the thought of giving a Leprechaun a Lewinski, but think of it - a wish! Anything he wants!
So he gets down and performs the repugnant task as bidden.
Since this is a family forum, we'll skip the sordid details, but after the deed is done, he's cleaning himself up. The little man begins to walk for the door.
"Hey, wait a minute - what about my wish?" says the young man.
The Leprechaun replies, "How old are ye, me boyo?"
"23" says the young man.
"Aren't ye a wee bit old to still be belivin' in Leprechauns?"
Two Irish neer'do'wells were a wondering the countryside near Dundalk (On the border between the Republic and North Ireland.) They were doing the old scam of carrying a lump of cow manure to the front door of a householder and asking them if they 'could kindly heat their meal'.
Of course the family would invite them in for food and drink, being kind people and all.
Till one day - whilst suffering a bit from the drink, they wandered across the border and found themselves at the doorstep of a Scot-Irish farmer - a Presbyterian if the truth be known :^)
Picking up a fine collection of horse apples, they knocked on the door.
"Kind sire", they said the man, "would it be possible you could allow us in the warm up our evening meal", they inquired?
"Oh nonsense", the man responded, "step into the barn and get yourselves nice fresh ones!
That's a great one, AuntB!
I love the Irish Blessing graphic, potlatch!
To Obama, I say póg mo thóin and trasna ort féin.
Meaning in white font below. ;o)
Kiss my butt and go ef yourself!
Beautiful sentiment! : )
LOLOL, I LOVE hidden messages!
LOL!
An old Irish couple, Pat and Mary had been livin’ together in sin for neigh on to fifty years. One day Mary confronts Pat an’ says to him, “Pat, don’t you think it was time we was gettin’ married?”
“Nay Mary, I donna think that’s a good idea”
“And give me two good reasons why not!”
“For one thing, we’re too old. An’ besides, .... who’d have us?”
Being able to hurl Celtic curses at Obama on St. Paddy’s Day is a real treat.
I’ve waited all year for this. ;o)
My Jameson emptied last night and now I’m working on on a bottle of Tullamore Dew an Irishman named Kenney sent me.
So a toast to all Irishmen and those who wish they were!!
