Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
My apologies in advance to anyone that is offended by ethnic humor. [And really, shouldn't we all be offended? -- I'm so ashamed of myself, but I'm going to post this anyway. I think I have a little Irish in my heritage, so I can say I'm making fun of myself in a roundabout sort of way....]
An Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman sit at a bar and each is served a beer.
The Brit finds a fly in his beer so he pushes it away and orders a dark stout.
The Scot finds a fly in his beer so he pushes it away and orders a whiskey.
The Celt finds a fly in his beer so he grabs the fly and yells, “Spit that out! It’s mine!”
Get lucky with these songs:
The song titles link to YouTube videos and the artist names link to their official web sites.

How could you overlook “I Feel Lucky” by the terrific Mary Chapin Carpenter?
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
I love her and that song — But I really like the symmetry of the titles of these three. ~Tim

Happy belated St Patrick’s day Tim!!
I’m not easily offended and I don’t even think I’m Irish either, so it’s cool.

Well, I try to be an equal opportunity offender…. ~Tim

Good to know where you stand… or fall over? ~Tim

Oh Mr Tim,
I’m Irish and man…that joke was lame.
No, no, Im not offended by it at all. Heck no.
But man, the american telling of it…needs a little work
It usually goes, Paddy Englishman, Paddy Irishman and Paddys Scotsman…
And you can’t finish with “the celt”
That could be any of them sure!
Ya made me giggle nonetheless Sir!
Knock Knock,
who’s there?
Irish,
Irish Who?
Irish you a belated St Patrick’s Day!!!!
hehe…
I knew someone would call me on using Celt to refer to the Irishman, but I liked too much using Brit, Scot, and Celt in the telling. I couldn’t find a more specific term that had the same symmetry. Glad I made you giggle anyway. ~Tim

And the Jew who is probably a doctor or lawyer complains until he gets another one and on the house, the fee waived to compensate for the emotional distress related to witnessing a winged creature in his beverage. God I love my people. We’re always out for a good deal!
Thanks for the link and introducing me to your blog. Nice site - I’ll surely be back!
