Farmer Murphy is working on his fence when a British tourist startled him by honking his car’s horn. "I say," asked the limey "does this road go to the Blarney Castle?" "I do believe it does. Just keep on as you were." Farmer Murphy goes back to his business. About 10 minutes later, the limey comes back up the road. I say, my good man, there's a stream crossing this road. Is it safe to cross it in my car?" Farmer Murphy says, "Right, I should think you'll be fine." And the limey drives off again. Farmer Murphy goes back to his business, he's working away and slowly becomes aware of a sloshing, dripping, stomping sound getting louder. He looks up. It's the limey. He does not look happy! "I say!" the limey rants, "you told me it was safe to cross that stream." “I did that." "Well, I nearly drowned! That stream is deep enough to completely cover my car!" Farmer Murphy has himself a smile and replies, "That's odd. It only comes halfway up on the ducks."

Englishman a Scotsman and an Irishman are on a train compartment, drinking and being loud together. At the next stop an elderly priest and a beautiful woman get on and sit across from the three.

You three look like a right pair of fools, but I'll give 50 quid to any of you that can name the three main characters of the Bible." The Englishman pipes up and says, "The three Kings?" The Father O’Malley tuts and shakes his head. The Scott chimes in and says, "God, Judas and the donkey?" This gets a great laugh from his companions, but the priest is unimpressed. He looks at Paddy, but he just shrugs and continues drinking. As the train went through a tunnel, the lights momentarily shut off, and in the darkness, the beautiful woman leaned over and passionately kissed the drunken Irishman. In his astonishment, Paddy blurts out, "Jaysus, Mary and Joseph!!" As the lights go back on, Father O’Malley looks up and proudly says, "Well done lad, I knew you had it in you," and hands over the 50.

Sean is standing behind the bar and in a gregarious voice says, “Welcome lads, let me pour you a drink.” After a couple of rounds, at only 20 cents per drink, their curiosity gets the best of them. Sean explains that he hit the Irish Lottery and quit his boring bookkeeping job to open the pub of his dreams. As the Americans lifted their pints, they couldn’t help noticing a group at the other end of the pub that hadn’t yet ordered a drop. One asked Sean, “What’s with them?” Sean replied, “Right, never mind them. That’s Angus and his crew from Scotland. They’re just waiting for happy hour.”

"Och huv ye nay got unythin cheaper," replies the Scotsman getting agitated. "But that's the normal charge for an extraction sir," replied the dentist. "What aboot if ye didnae use uny anaesthetic?" asked Fergus hopefully. "Well it's highly unusual sir, but if that's what you want, I suppose I can do it for $65." "What aboot if ye used one of ye dentist trainees and still wi' oot anaesthetic?" asked the Scotsman. "Well it's possible, but they are only training and I can't guarantee their level of professionalism. It'll be a lot more painful, but I suppose in that case we can bring the price down to say $40." "Och that's still a bit much, how ab oot if ye make it a training session and have yon student do the extraction and the other students watchin' and learnin'?" The dentist replied, “Well OK it'll be good for the students, I suppose. I'll charge you only $5 in that case, but it will a traumatic experience.” "Now yer talkin’ laddie! It’s a deal,” said the Scotsman. "Can ye book the wee wife for next Wednesday?"

The landlord goes out of his way for the locals. When you buy four drinks, he'll buy the fifth drink." "Well," said the Englishman, "At my local in London, the barman will buy you your third drink after you buy the first two." "Ahhh, dat's nothin'," said the Irishman, "back home in my favorite pub, the moment you set foot in the place, they'll buy you a drink, then another, all the drinks you like, actually. Then, when you've had enough drinks, they'll take you upstairs to a private room and see that you gets some real fun, all on the house!" The Englishman and Scotsman were suspicious of the claims.

"Not to me, personally, no," admitted the Irishman, "but it did happen to me sister quite a few times."

As they were preparing for their punishment, the Sheikh announced: "It's my first wife's birthday today, and she has asked me to allow each of you one wish before your whipping. The Scott was first in line; he thought for a while and then said, "Please tie a pillow to my back.” This was done, but the pillow only lasted 10 lashes before the whip went through. When the punishment was done the Scott had to be carried away bleeding and crying with pain. The Englishman was next up. After watching the Scott in horror he said smugly, "Please fix two pillows to my back." But even two pillows could only take 15 lashes before the whip went through again and the Englishman was soon led away whimpering loudly. Paddy was the last one up, but before he could say anything, the Sheikh turned to him and said, "You are from a most beautiful part of the world and your culture is one of the finest. For this, you may have two wishes!" "Thank you, your most royal and merciful highness," Paddy replied. "In recognition of your kindness, my first wish is that you give me not 20, but 100 lashes." "Not only are you an honorable, handsome and powerful man, you are also very brave," the Sheikh said with an admiring look on his face. "If 100 lashes is what you desire, then so be it. And your second wish, what is it to be?" the Sheikh asked. Paddy smiled and said, "Tie the Englishman to my back."

"What do you mean I'm not on the list???" the man thundered. "Don't you not know who I am???" "As a matter of fact, I do," said St. Peter, "But your name is not on the list." "That's not good enough," said the man. "I'm a very important person. I should be on the list." St. Peter tries to explain that it's not easy to get into heaven, and that as an Englishman you have to be kind to the Irish. When the Duke hears this he starts to complain, so St. Peter says that if had he had been kind to the Irish in his lifetime there could have been a chance. "Well!" roared the Duke. "I'll have you know that I have been very good to the Irish. "Why, once I met an Irish beggar who had lost her leg in a confrontation with my security team and I gave her a pound.

It’s the holiday in America when the yanks all get together, eat turkey, and are thankful.” “Wrong!” replies St. Peter, and proceeds to ask the Scot the same question, “What is Easter?” The Scot replies, “Easter is the holiday in December when we put up a nice tree, exchange presents, and celebrate the birth of Jesus.” St. Peter looks at the Scot, shakes his head in disgust, tells him he’s wrong, and then peers over his glasses at Paddy and asks, “What is Easter?” Paddy smiles confidently and looks St. Peter in the eyes. “Sur, I know what Easter is.” “Oh?” says St. Peter, incredulously. “Easter is the Christian holiday that coincides with the Jewish celebration of Passover. Jesus and his disciples were eating at the Last Supper and Jesus was later deceived and turned over to the Romans by one of his disciples. The Romans took him to be crucified and he was stabbed in the side, made to wear a crown of thorns, and hung on a cross with nails through his hands. He was buried in a nearby cave which was sealed off by a large boulder.” St. Peter smiles broadly with delight. Then Paddy continues, “Every year the boulder is moved aside so that Jesus can come out... and, if he sees his shadow, there will be six more weeks of winter.”

St. Peter nods in approval and allows him entry. The Scot pulls out his keys and jingles them, St. Peter says, "What is that?" "Why, they are Jingle Bells for the infant Jesus!" the Scotsman states. Again, an approving nod from St. Peter. Finally, yer man Paddy reaches in his pocket and pulls out a pair of lady’s panties. St. Peter is aghast and sternly asks, "What are those?" The Irishman candidly states "Those are Carols!"

Next he asks the Scot, “How many people died on that ship?” “Oooh, that’s tough, but I saw the movie, and I think that it was 1,500.” St. Patrick steps aside and the Scot walks into Heaven. Finally, St. Patrick turns to the Englishman and says, “Name them.”
