A Canadian in Ireland

Doesn't have the ring of "An American in Paris" (or even "An American at Opera") but what can you do?

Half 4 in the morning...

And here I am setting up a blog. I must be nuts, or insomniac, or something.

Not sure what else I should say, I want to try and set the tone. Well, don't expect anything profound. Not on purpose anyway.

Look. I'll go off, get some sleep, have a think, and see what else I come up with.

Thanks for the info.
Two things I meant to say,or rather one queston and one statement.
Where are you from in ca. ?
And I used my sister in laws BRAND new car to get some things.Almost like you REVERSE was a pull up on the first gear.Never ran In to that before! Took me a good 20mins to figure that one out.Of course she was having kittens by the time I got back.(thought I effed off)
Anyways, keep your stick on the ice,
A murphy.

Knew I had more irish tunes other than U2.Thin Lizzy,Jail Break.Had Gary Moore,Still got the blues but my ex g/f liked it more than I did.lol
Also have Whiskey in the Jar'o done properly,not like those napster figthing pukes that call themselves Mettalica.I don't have it, but Thin Lizzy did it once too.
Now if I could only find the "any"key I would be Happy.
once again,
a Murphy

Hello,
I too am an Irish Canadain, although I am living in the USA at the moment going to Graduate School. I would very much like to purchase some Irish Olympic team memororobilia. I am most interested in the caps the athletes were wearing in the opening ceremonies. Any ideas where I could find one. I have looked all over the web, but can't seem to find any information. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Please feel free to email me at msmattking@hotmail.com

Thank you very much
Matt

Two dogs meet each other at the vet´s.
One dog is looking absolutely miserable and anxious. Let´s call him Fred
The other a bit anxious. Let´s call him Barney.
The one called Barney looks at Fred and asks him:
What´s up with you?
Fred; starts to whimper and cry and tells him:
"My owner, he left me home alone yesterday. And I just couldn´t help myself. I got so bored and I started eyeing the sofa, and well, next thing you know, it was completely destroyed. But I was still bored and started to eye the wallpaper and wouldn´t you know it, it got all destroyed and I was still bored and by the time my owner got home, his house was completely destroyed, and I realized what I did. He was absolutely furious. And you know how it is, I looked at him and I barked and barked and wagged my tail to tell him I was sorry and he just didn´t understand. Next thing, I am here. He´s decided to put me down."
Barney: That´s terrible!!!
Fred looks at him sadly and asks him: "And you?"
Barney looks at him: "My owner, he left me at home and you know how it is, I haven´t seen a female in months and his wife was busy filling up the bath with hot water, and I sat in the background watching all this.
Well, she leaned over to test the water and well, I just couldn´t help myself, I went at her."
Fred: "So, you´re going to be put down too???"
Barney stretches out his paw and gazes at his claws anxiously: "Nah, I´m getting me nails done."

A young guy João is hired to work for the postal services in an area called "Alentejo", (Alentejo is known to friendly and trusting community but slow working people). The young man is called into the Post Master Francisco´s office so that they can discuss his route and the different people and how to handle their mail.

Anyways, the post master Francisco tells the young João, that when he gets to #16, that he just open the door and put the mail on the table. That #16 is where Manuel and Maria live and they are both deaf and dumb, and they wouldn´t hear him when he came around with their mail.

So, João goes about his routes and for about two weeks everything is going smoothly.

Then one day, the weather was terrible. And João is walking under a heavy downpour of rain and wind. And as usual, he arrives at #16, he opens the door to put the mail on the table and stops in shock to stare at Manuel and Maria. They both stand naked and glaring at each other in absolute fury. Maria grabs her breasts and Manuel grabs his you know what and pulls at it and raises his hand up in the air angrily.

Well... João doesn´t know what to think... he leaves and rushes back to the Post office.
"Senhor Francisco!" He shouts.

Senhor Francisco comes out and asks what is the problem.

João tells the Post Master that he thinks that Manuel and Maria have lost their minds...

Why?

João in embarrasment explains what he had seen.

The Post master chuckles.

No, João, Maria is telling Manuel when she grabs her breasts that he must go milk the cows. And Manuel is telling her to fuck off when he grabs his you know what and that it is raining when he raises his hand as if he holds an umbrella.

:devil:


okay, this is one of those jokes that are told "live" because you "do" the gestures of Maria and Manuel, and the mind´s of the audience wanders....

:jester:

Mickeyjoe_irl 26. July 2006, 20:03

Thank you for the jokes, but I already read them on your blog. You don't have to go to the trouble of re-posting them here. :wink:

Oh congratulations Mike !! You're member of the week.

Sleep, dream, there's much too inspiration in the inconscious mind as well. It works on me. I have a digital voice recorder next to my bed so I can tell my recent dreams when I'm just awake.
