Jokes and on a lighter note

Pub Joke
Here is a joke that was posted by Lexy at RWV that tickled my funny bone and thought you all might have a laugh as well:

One night in a local pub, a man stumbled up to the only other patron in a bar and asked if he could buy him a drink. "Why of course," came the reply.

The first man then asked,

"Where are you from?"

"I'm from Ireland," replied the second man.

The first man responded,

"You don't say, I'm from Ireland too! Let's have another round to Ireland."

"Of course," replied the second man.

Curious, the first man then asked,
"Where in Ireland are you from?"

"Dublin," came the reply.

"I can't believe it, " said the first man.
"I'm from Dublin too!"

He continued, "Let's have another drink to Dublin."

"Of course," replied the second man.

Curiosity again struck and the first man asked,
"what school did you go to?"

"Saint Mary's," replied the second man.
"I graduated in '62."

"This is unbelievable!" the first man said.
"I went to Saint Mary's and graduated in '62, too!"

About that time, one of the regulars came into the bar and sat down.

"What's been going on?" he asked the bartender.

"Nothing much," replied the bartender.
"The O'Malley twins are drunk again!"

Priceless

Jack woke up with a huge hangover after attending his company's Christmas Party. He didn't even remember how he got home from the party. As bad as he was feeling, he wondered if he did something wrong. Jack had to force himself to open his eyes, and the first thing he saw was a couple of aspirins next to a glass of water on the side table. And, next to them, a single red rose! Jack sat up and saw his clothing in front of him, all clean and pressed. He looked around the room and saw that it was in perfect order, spotlessly clean. So was the rest of the house. He took the aspirins, and cringed when he saw a huge black eye staring back at him in the bathroom mirror. Then he noticed a note hanging on the corner of the mirror written in red with little hearts on it and a kiss mark from his wife in lipstick:

" Honey, breakfast is on the stove. I left early to get groceries to make you your favorite dinner tonight. I love you, darling!"

He stumbled to the kitchen and sure enough, there was hot breakfast, steaming hot coffee and the morning newspaper. His son was also at the table, eating. Jack asked, "Son.. what happened last night?"

"Well, you came home after 3 A.M., drunk and out of your mind. You fell over the coffee table and broke it, and then you puked in the hallway, and got that black eye when you ran into the door."

Confused, he asked his son, "So, why is everything in such perfect order and so clean? I have a rose, and breakfast is on the table waiting for me."

His son replied, "Oh THAT! Mom dragged you to the bedroom, and when she tried to take your pants off, you screamed, "Leave me alone ....., I'm married!!"

Broken Coffee Table $2 39.99
Hot Breakfast $4.20
Two Aspirins $.38
Saying the right thing at the right time... PRICELESS

HOW THE FIGHT STARTED:

I rear-ended a car this morning.
So there we are alongside the road and slowly the driver gets out of the car.
And you know how you just-get-sooo-stressed and life-stuff seems to get funny?
Yeah, well, I could NOT believe it.
He was a DWARF!
He storms over to my car, looks up at me and says, "I AM NOT HAPPY!" So, I look down at him and say, "Well, which one ARE you, then?"

And that's when the fight started.

A beautiful woman is on the plane on her way home from a 2 week vacation on a gorgeous island.
'Ha', she says, 'finally together again'.
'Are you talking to me?', the man next to her says.
'No' she says, 'I was talking to my knees'.

After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply for Social Security.
The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver's license to verify my age.
I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home.
I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come back later.The woman said, 'Unbutton your shirt'.

So I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver hair.

She said, 'That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me'

And she processed my Social Security application.

When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the Social Security office.

She said, 'You should have dropped your pants. You might have gotten disability, too'

And then the fight started.....
