Flight attendant solves IrishAir flight crisis.

IRISH AIRLINES....

After being airborne approximately thirty minutes on an outbound evening Air Lingus flight from Dublin, the lead flight attendant nervously made the following painful announcement in her lovely Irish brogue:

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm so very sorry, but it appears that there has been a terrible mix-up by our catering service. I don't know how this has happened, but they did not deliver our meals until one minute prior to take-off. We have 103 passengers on board, and, unfortunately, we received only 40 dinner meals. I truly apologize for this mistake and inconvenience."

When passengers' muttering had died down, she continued, "Anyone who is kind enough to give up their meal so that someone else can eat, will receive free, unlimited drinks for the duration of our 4 hour flight."

Her next announcement came about 2 hours later...

"If anyone would like to change their minds, we still have 40 dinners available"

Two Irish lads walk into a bar.

The second one should have ducked.

Why did God create whiskey?

To keep the Irish from ruling the world.

I'm Irish and I have an appointment with the dentist next week to have wisdom tooth put in.

Yes indeed. But then the Irish have always had a reputation of cunning tongues.

I assume that’s what you mean. :-)

“obstreperous” Okay, I need to look that up. Did you get that off your word of the day calendar?

Lol Good one, Mears.

My family is originally from County Cork and places in between.

God love the Irish.

My Godfather was named Vitali and he and my Dad would kid each other. “You Micks don’t know …..” etc. “”You Dagos.....”.

We had an old Irish Aunt who wouldn’t miss Lawrence Welk and especially his St Patrick programs.

Good one-—that’s why I surrounded myself with Jews and Irish for my entire life————the ability to laugh.

An Irish housewife was sick to death of her husband’s drinking & staggering in drunk at all hours. So she made herself up to be the spitting image of the old Devil himself, complete with luminous painted face, to try & scare him straight.

Around three a.m. the husband awoke to see himself confronted by the frightful phantasm. He blurted, “A-a-a-nd who might you be!!?”

The wife said, “Yer sins have damned ye unto Hell!! I am the Old Nick and I’ve come to carry you AWAY!!!”

At that the husband cheerfully got up, walked around and took the `devil’ by the arm and said, “Aweel, aweel! Leave us be going then, shall we? I am married to your sister!”

;^)

Theft is a sin. I just stole this. Confession is good for the soul.
