An extra for St Patrick's Day

It's 2012 and it's the Olympics in London. A Scotsman, an Englishman and an Irishman want to get in but they haven't got tickets.

The Scotsman picks up a manhole cover, tucks it under his arm and walks to the gate.

'McTavish, Scotland,' he says. 'Discus,' and in he walks.

The Englishman picks up a scaffolding pole and slings it over his shoulder.

'Waddington-Smythe, England,' he say. 'Pole vault,' and in he walks.

The Irishman looks around, picks up a roll of barbed wire and tucks it under his arm.

'O'Malley, Ireland,' he says. 'Fencing.'

Two Irishmen were sitting 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."

Then they saw a Catholic priest enter the brothel, and one of the Irishmen said, "What a terrible
pity... one of the poor lasses must be gravely ill."
