Saint Paddy Says, "There's Got To Be A Morning After !"

I never saw her yesterday, but believe you me, I was looking. I was even willing to waive the wings and green hat accessories. There were plenty of revelers roaming around last evening, most wearing the green colors of the occasion. I was not too concerned about the outfits or colors, but more about seeking Erin-go-braless.

I'd be willing to bet the most of last night's party goers were praying to Saint Patrick this morning. If I remember the prayer correctly, it begins, "Saint Paddy, if you'll just help me get rid of this hangover and let me feel better, I promise that I'll......"

I'm sure all the men know this St. Paddy's prayer and I'm willing to wager that a great number of women are familiar with it, as well. I can readily assure you that all women should know the prayer because they have either recited it or heard it recited by their insignificant other.

Happy Saint Patrick's morning after, my friends. Anyone for green eggs and ham? Alka-Seltzer, anyone?

The AREA 51 Retirement Home Bar and Grill:

One night a teenage girl brought her new boyfriend home to meet her parents, and they were appalled by his appearance: leather jacket, motorcycle boots, tattoos and pierced nose. Later, the parents pulled their daughter aside and confessed their concern. The mother said, diplomatically, "Dear, he doesn't seem very nice." The daughter replied, "Oh please, Mom, if he wasn't nice, why would he be doing 500 hours of community service?"

Tommy is a growing young boy, but when he goes to the bathroom, Tommy manages to hit everything but the toilet. After two weeks, his mom has had enough, and takes Tommy to the doctor. After the examination, the doctor said, "His penis is too small. An old wives' tale is to give him two slices of toast each morning, and his penis will grow so he can hold it and aim straight."

The next morning Tommy jumped out of bed and ran downstairs to the kitchen. There on the table, are twelve slices of toast. Tommy yells, "Mom, the doctor said I only had to eat two slices of toast." His mother replied, "I know. The other ten slices are for your father."

The Hits Just Keep On Coming:

Stevie Wonder and Tiger Woods are in a bar. Woods turns to Wonder and says, "How is the singing career going?" Stevie Wonder replies, "Not too bad! How's the golf?" Woods replies, "Kinda bad, My wife divorced me, took half my money and I'm having problems with my game." Stevie says, "I always find that when my swing goes wrong, I need to stop playing for a while and not think about it. Then, the next time I play, it seems to be all right."

Woods says, "You play golf?" Stevie says, "Oh, yes, I've been playing for years." Woods says, "But, you're blind. How can you play golf if you're blind?" Wonder replies, "I get my caddy to stand in the middle of the fairway and call to me. I listen for the sound of his voice and play the ball towards him. Then, when I get to where the ball lands, the caddy moves to the green or farther down the fairway and again I play the ball towards his voice."

Tiger says, "But, how do you putt?" Stevie says, "I get my caddy to lean down in front of the hole and call to me with his head on the ground and I just play the ball towards his voice." Woods asks, "What's your handicap?" Stevie says, "Well, I'm a scratch golfer."

Woods, incredulous, says to Stevie, "We've got to play a round sometime." Wonder replies, "Well, people don't take me seriously, so I only play for money, and never play for less than $10,000 a hole." Woods thinks about it and says, "OK, I'm game for that, when would you like to play?" Stevie says, "Pick a night!"

Little Tim was in the garden filling in a hole when his neighbor peered over the fence. Interested in what the cheeky-faced youngster was up to, he politely asked, "What are you up to there, Tim?" Without looking up, Tim tearfully replied, "My goldfish died and I've just buried him." The neighbor was concerned, "That's an awfully big hole for a goldfish, isn't it?" Tim patted down the last heap of earth then replied, "That's because he's inside your stupid cat."

There are some children in a class naming animals and they come across a picture of a deer. So the teacher asks Bobby, "What is this animal called?" Bobby says, "I don't know." The teacher says, "I'll give you a hint. it's what your mother calls your father." The boy thinks for a minute and then says, "Oh, so that's what a son of a bitch looks like!"

On little Jack's first day of first grade, he raised his hand as soon as the teacher came into the room and said, "I don't belong here, I should be in third grade!" The teacher looked at little Jack's records and told him to please take his seat. Not five minutes passed when little Jack stood up again and said, "I don't belong here, I should be in the third grade!"

Jack did this a few more times before the principal came along and the teacher explained Jack's problem. The principal and the first grade teacher told little Jack that if he could answer some questions that they could decide in which grade he belonged. Well, they soon discovered that Jack knew all the state capitals and country capitals that the principal could think of.

The principal suggested they try some biology questions. The teacher asked. "What does a cow have 4 of but a woman has only 2?" Jack exclaimed, "Legs!" The teacher said, "What does a man have in his pants that a woman doesn't?" Larry said, "Pockets!" The principal looked at the teacher and said, "Maybe he should be in third grade. I missed those last two questions!"

That's it for today my little tater tots. Remember, if you remember anything about your St. Patrick’s Day party the next morning, you’re not doing it right. It's finally Friday and I'm going to AREA 51. Have a great weekend and more on Monday.
