irish blessings
We’re on this Earth together,
And if we would be brothers,
Fight not just on your own behalf
But for the sake of others
________________________________________________
May your troubles be as few and far between
As my grandmother’s teeth.
________________________________________________
Here’s to a long life and a merry one;
A quick death and an easy one;
A pretty girl and an honest one;
A cold beer — and another one!
________________________________________________
Work like you don’t need money,
Love like you have never been hurt and
Dance like no one’s watching
____________________________________________________
Here’s to lying, stealing, and cheating!
May you lie to save a friend;
May you steal the heart of the one you love;
and may you cheat death!

St patty day joke from my mother .. tis’ allowed’ were Irish.
Two Irishmen were sitting in a pub having a beer and watching the –not an appropriate thing to discuss here– across the street.
They saw a Baptist minister walk into the –not an appropriate thing to discuss here–, 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 –not an appropriate thing to discuss here–, 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 –not an appropriate thing to discuss here–, and one of the Irishmen said,
“What a terrible pity…one of the girls must be quite ill.”
