JOHN’S ‘Irish’ JOKES

Jo-Anne made me a green hamburger for St. Patrick’s Day. I asked her how she coloured it and she said she didn’t know what I was talking about.

What do you get when you cross poison ivy with a four-leaf clover?
A rash of good luck.

Why can’t you borrow money from a leprechaun?
Because they’re always a little short.

Why don’t you iron 4-Leaf clovers?
Because you don’t want to press your luck.

Are people jealous of the Irish?
Sure, they’re green with envy!

What is Irish diplomacy?
It’s the ability to tell a man to go to hell. So that he will look forward to making the trip

“I married an Irish girl on St. Patrick’s Day.”
“Oh, really?”
“No, O’Reilly!”

Why did St. Patrick drive all the snakes out of Ireland?
He couldn’t afford plane fare.

An Irish Vicker is driving down to New York and gets stopped for speeding in Connecticut. The state trooper smells alcohol on the vicker’s breath and then sees an empty wine bottle on the floor of the car. He says, “Sir, have you been drinking?”

“Just water,” says the priest. The trooper says, “Then why do I smell wine?”

The vicker looks at the bottle and says, “Good Lord! He’s done it again!”

May your blessings outnumber the shamrocks that grow,
and may trouble avoid you wherever you go
