An Irish priest is driving down to New York and gets stopped for speeding in Connecticut . The state trooper smells alcohol on the priest's breath and then sees an empty wine bottle on the floor of the car.
He says, 'Sir, have you been drinking?'
'Just water,' says the priest.
The trooper says, 'Then why do I smell wine?'
The priest looks at the bottle and says, 'Sweet Lord Jay-sus! He's done it again!'

Paddy was driving down the street in a sweat because he had an important meeting and couldn't find a parking place. Looking up to heaven he said, 'Lord take pity on me. If you find me a parking place I will go to Mass every Sunday for the rest of me life and give up me Irish Whiskey!'
Miraculously, a parking place appeared.
Paddy looked up again and said, 'Never mind, I found one.'

Hee hee. I'm not one bit Irish, but I love St. Patrick's Day. Today I'm honorary.
Happy St. Patrick's to you!
Good ones
Now, those were funny, Z. I actually forgot it was St. Patricks Day until around 10:00am or so where there about.
Anyway, Happy St. Patrick's Day to you my friend.
Blessings.
Mick was standing at the bar when in come Father O’Reilly who immediately noticed that Mick’s face was badly swollen and bruised.
“Jay zus, lad . . . wot’s happened ta yer face?”
“T’is nuttin’ Fadda,” said Mick. “Paddy took a shovel ta my face.”
“I see,” said the priest, “And w’ot did ye have in yer hand, lad?”
“Well Fadda,” Mick replied, “I had Paddy’s wife, but she’s not any good in a fight.”
I forgot, too, IHS!
Unless Mr. Z calls me soon to pick him up from a meeting,so I can dash to the store, this'll be the first time we haven't had corned beef and cabbage on March 17 in YEARS!!
NO GREEN BEER (Germans would just freak out)!!
MUSTANG!! SO cute!
My Wife is in the kitchen fixing the corned beef and cabbage right now, she really is Irish. Come on over. If you can't make it have a safe and Happy St. Patricks Day!
God Bless America, God Save The Republic.
I don't know why, but I have never really even given a thought to observing St. Patricks Day. It has just never seemed like a holiday to me.
The humor however is quite alright. Even to the (roughly) 1/8 of me that is Irish.
I'm ZERO % Irish, and I wouldn't say "I OBSERVE THE HOLIDAY" but when there's good food involved, I'll about celebrate ANYthing.
almost!
I missed it..the grocer was out of them :-(
David, We're coming over! THANKS!! (enjoy!!)
Happy St. Patrick's day to ya. I've no Irish in me either. But, I grew up singing those wonderful Irish songs, as we all stood around the piano while my Portugese Grandmother played.
The Irish have a wonderful, hearty, culture. I raise my glass to the Irish, and may their "Irish eyes be smiling" today.

Anyone old enough to remember the "I dreamt I ... in my Maidenform bra?" commercials?
They did a special for St. Paddy's Day back in the fifties:
I dreamt I walked down Fifth Avenue in my Erin Go Bragh

Z,
I have always admired the Irish culture for it's love of life and tremendous power in faith and family in the face of unbelievable travail.
Historically, incredibly significant and heroic people. The English haven't been a friend to them in many ways. Don't have and Irish bone in my body, German both sides all the way back.
But love the food, music, and of course the beer, not so sure about green either. Happy St. Patty's Day.
Happy St. Pat's to you as well, Z. It is the day after my birthday, so I usually remember it! Also, green is my favorite color anyway.
Just a quick & shameless plug! Check out a great Irish Bible teacher who is now with the Lord, Dr. Bob Dowie, on our free online Bible Institute, www.bbnbi.org, course number 21600. His teaching & Irish accent are delightful! God Bless you Z!
Happy St. Patrick's Day :-)
How come I see posts on my Dashboard but when I come to read them they're gone? :-( Have you been in a delete mood or is there a problem with Blogger?
lovely..did that happen? Do they register on your dashboard?
I had two that I was working on and checked to see how they'd look, published, then took them back out of publication.
One will be on at midnight my time!
So funnY! Lots of people have just happened to be on the literally 1 minute I've had stuff on and removed and they freak out.."WHAT HAPPENED!?"
Sorry about that..it'll be up late!
good stuff z.. did you wear green?
Pat, I forgot.
I wore orange and that's an Irish color, too, tho!
