[nilesfunnies] Fw: The Luck Of The Irish....

The Luck Of The Irish....
Two Irishmen walk into a pet shop in Dingle, they walk over to
the bird section where Gerry points and says to Paddy: "Dat's dem."

The owner comes over and asks if he can help.

"Yeah, we'll take four of dem dere little budgies in dat
cage up dere," says Gerry.

The shop owner puts the budgies in a cardboard box.

Paddy and Gerry pay for the birds, leave the shop and get
into Gerry's truck to drive to the top of the Connor Pass.

At the Connor Pass, Gerry looks down at the 1000 foot
drop and says: "Dis looks like a grand place."

Then he takes two birds out of the box, puts one on each
shoulder and jumps off the cliff.

Paddy watches as the budgies fly off and 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, "Fook dat. Dis budgie jumping is too
fook'n dangerous for me!"

Moment's later; Seamus arrives up at Connor Pass.
He's been to the pet shop too and walks up to the edge of
the cliff carrying another cardboard box in one hand and a
shotgun in the other.

"Hi, Paddy, watch dis," Seamus says.
He takes a parrot from the box and lets it fly free.

He then throws himself over the edge of the cliff with the gun.

Paddy watches amazed as, half way down, Seamus aims the gun and
shoots the parrot.

Seamus continues to plummet down and down until he hits
the bottom and dies beside Gerry.

Paddy shakes his head and says firmly: "And I'm never trying dat
parrotshooting either!"

Paddy is just getting over the shock of losing two
friends when Sean appears.

He's also been to the pet shop and is carrying a
cardboard box out of which he pulls a chicken.

Sean takes the chicken by its legs and then hurls himself
off the cliff only to fall down and down until he hits the
rocks and dies beside the others.

Once more Paddy shakes his head sadly:

"Fook dees extrame sports. Dere too dangerous.
First dere was Gerry with his budgie jumping,
den Seamus parrotshooting... and now
Sean and his frg'n hengliding!"
