Apologies to all Irish on this List
I hope this isn't too off-subject !!!
FIRST IRISH ATTEMPT AT SOARING
Two Irishmen walk into a pet shop in Dingle.
<>They head to the bird section and Gerry says to Paddy, "Dat's dem."
The owner comes over and asks if he can help them.
"Yeah, we'll take four of dem dere little budgies in dat cage up dere,"
says Gerry,
The owner puts the budgies in a paper bag. Paddy and Gerry pay for the
birds, leave the shop and get into Gerry's Hiace to drive to the top of
the Conor Pass.
At the Conor Pass, Gerry looks down at the 1000-foot drop and says, "Dis
looks like a grand place."
He takes two birds out of the bag, puts them on his shoulders and jumps
off the cliff.
Paddy watches as Gerry falls all the way to the bottom, killing himself
stone dead.
Looking down at the remains of his best pal, Paddy shakes his head and
says; "Feck dat. Dis budgie jumping is too feckin' dangerous for me."
SECOND IRISH ATTEMPT AT SOARING
<>
Moment's later Seamus arrives up at Conor Pass. He's been to the pet
shop too and walks up to the edge of the cliff carrying another paper
bag in one hand and a shotgun in the other.
Hi, Paddy. Watch dis, "Seamus says. He takes a parrot from the bag and
throws himself over the edge of the cliff.
Paddy watches as half way down, Seamus takes the gun and shoots the
parrot. Seamus continues to plummet down and down until he hits the
bottom and breaks every bone in his body.
Paddy shakes his head and says, "And I'm never trying dat parrotshooting
either."
THIRD IRISH ATTEMPT AT SOARING
<>
Paddy is just getting over the shock of losing two friends when Sean Og
appears. He's also been to the pet shop and is carrying a paper bag out
of which he pulls a chicken.
Sean Og then hurls himself off the cliff and disappears down and down
until he hits a rock and breaks his spine.
Once more Paddy shakes his head - "Feck that Lads. First der was Gerry
with his budgie jumping, den Seamus parrotshooting and now Sean Og is
feckin' hengliding."
