Happy St. Patricks Day!

Happy St. Patricks Day to all! Even though our parade was last Saturday there will still be wearin' 'o the green today and I would really like to find a nice corned beef stew for lunch. In the spirit of the day, I'd like to share an Irish joke -

A man stumbles up to the only other patron in a bar and asks if he could buy him a drink.

"Why of course" comes the reply.
The first man then asks:
"Where are you from?"

"I'm from Ireland" replies the second man.

The first man responds: "You don't say, I'm from Ireland too! Let's have another round to Ireland!"

"Of course," replies the second man.

Curious, the first man then asks: "Where in Ireland are you from?"

"Dublin," comes the reply.

"I can't believe it," says the first man. "I'm from Dublin too! Let's have another drink to Dublin."

"Of course," replies the second man.

Curiosity again strikes and the first man asks: "What school did you go to?"

"Saint Marys," replies the second man. "I graduated in '62."

"This is unbelieveable!" the first man says. " I went to Saint Marys and I graduated in '62, too!"

About that time in comes one of the regulars and sits down at the bar. "Whats been going on?" he asks the bartender.

"Nothing much," replies the bartender. "The O'Malley twins are drunk again."
