She's Sweet & Careful




One afternoon the pastor came round to call on her, and she showed him into her quaint sitting room and invited him to have a seat while she prepared tea.

As he sat facing her old Hammond organ, the young minister noticed a cut glass bowl sitting on top of it.  The dish was filled with water and in the water floated, of all things, a condom!

When she returned with tea and scones, they began to chat.

The pastor tried to stifle his curiosity about the bowl of water and its strange floater, but soon it got the better of him, and he could no longer resist.

“Miss Beatrice,” he said, “I wonder if you would tell me about this?” pointing to the bowl.

“Oh, yes,” she replied, “Isn't it wonderful?  I was walking through the park a few months ago, and I found this little package on the ground.  The directions said to place it on the organ, keep it wet and that it would prevent the spread of disease.   And wouldn’t you be knowin’… I haven't had a cold or the flu all this long winter.




Drink Up!




An Irishman, Englishman, and Scotsman go into a pub and each order a pint of Guinness.  Just as the bartender hands them over, three flies buzz down, and one lands in each of the pints.


The Englishman looks disgusted, pushes his pint away and demands another.

The Scotsman picks out the fly, shrugs, and takes a long swallow.

The Irishman reaches into the glass, pinches the fly between his fingers and shakes him while yelling, “Spit it out, ya wee bastard! Spit it out!"




Thinkin' Like An Irish Catholic




A married Irishman went into the confessional and said to his priest, "I almost had an affair with another woman."

The priest said, "What do you mean, almost?"

The Irishman said, "Well, we got undressed and rubbed together, but then I stopped."

The priest said, "Rubbing together is the same as putting it in. You're not to see that woman again. For your penance, say five Hail Mary's and put 50 in the poor box."

The Irishman left the confessional, said his prayers, and then walked over to the poor box. He paused for a moment and then started to go.

The priest, who was watching, quickly ran over to him saying, "I saw that. You didn't put any money in the poor box!"

The Irishman replied, "Yeah, but I rubbed the money on the box, and according to you, that's the same as putting it in!"




The Dog Died!




Muldoon lived alone in the Irish countryside with only a pet dog for company. One day the dog died, and Muldoon went to the parish priest and asked, "Father, my dog is dead. Could ya' be saying' a mass for the poor creature?"

Father Patrick replied, "I'm afraid not, don'tcha know. We cannot have services for an animal in the church. But there are some Baptists down the lane, and there's no tellin' what they believe. Maybe they'll do something for the creature."

Muldoon said, "I'll go right away Father, and I'll be thankin' ya. But let me be askin' ya one other question. Do ya' think 500 is enough to donate to them for the service?"

Father Patrick exclaimed, "Sweet Mary, Mother of Jesus! Why didn't ya tell me the dog was Catholic?"




Fishing?



The rain was pouring down. There standing in front of a big puddle outside the pub was an old Irishman, drenched, holding a stick, with a piece of string dangling in the water.
 
A passer-by stopped and asked, "What are you doing?"
 
"Fishing" replied the old man.
 
Feeling sorry for the old man, the gent says, "Come in out of the rain and have a drink with me."
 
In the warmth of the pub, as they sip their whiskeys, the gentleman, being a bit of a smart ass, can’t resist asking, "So how many have you caught today?"
 
"You're the eighth," says the old man.
