PJ: You GOT SERVED!

[AndyHardy]

Oh no, no serving here!!! (Cookie, behave!)

The only serving here is a pint of lager or some Bailey's

(PJ, at age 14 I sat and listened to Great Day For The Irish over and over again trying to decipher the lyric)

and how about a little joke...

"The Brothel"
Two Irishmen were sitting at a pub having beer and watching the brothel across the street. They saw a Baptist minister walk into the brothel, and one of them said, "Aye, 'tis a shame to see a man of the cloth goin' bad."

Then they saw a rabbi enter the brothel, and the other Irishman said, "Aye, tis a shame to see that the Jews are fallin' victim to temptation as well."

Then they see a catholic priest enter the brothel, and one of the Irishmen said, "What a terrible pity...one of the girls must be dying."

since I don't drink alcohol, can I pick someone who does?...

Cats, looking at your avatar and that Colin pic are just a bit too much for some of us at work.

K, love the tune... note the signature which I changed first thing this morning...

Just got back from lunch, and enjoyed listening to a little pick-up group of bagpipers right outside my office... Love living in parade territory!

Oh Addy. Great minds think a like. When I read the lyrics this morning (thank you K!!!!) I was going to change my signature as well.

Wonderful song!!

In honor of all our Irish lads and lassies out there (myself most assuredly included), and inspired by the lovely graphics on this board today (which *really* means that when I end up in rehab, it's you bitches' fault), I am having a very large, very tasty cup of coffee with Bailey's and Jameson's.

*hic*

Cheers, Jailyard!

(ps - large and tasty is my favorite kind!)

[kissmycookie]

"large and tasty is my favorite kind"

Addy, and you don't understand why you get used as signature quotes. LOL

OK Addy -- if that's your story -- I'll stick with it too!

I guess it's all relative... don't forget my college tally sheet!

Now, back to St. Patty's Day... Cheers!
