A lawyer and an Irishman are sitting next to each other on a long flight. The lawyer is thinking that the Irish are so dumb that he could get one over them easy, so the lawyer asks if the Irishman would like to play a fun game.
The Irishman is tired and just wants to take a nap, so he politely declines and tries to catch a few winks. The lawyer persists, and says that the game is a lot of fun.
“I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me only $5; you ask me one, and if I don't know the answer, I will pay you $500,” he says.
This catches the Irishman's attention and to keep the lawyer quiet, he agrees to play the game. The lawyer asks the first question. “What's the distance from The Earth to the Moon?”
The Irishman doesn't say a word, reaches in his pocket pulls out a five-dollar bill, and hands it to the lawyer.
Now, it's the Irishman's turn. He asks the lawyer, “What goes up a hill with three legs, and comes down with four?”
The lawyer uses his laptop and searches all references he could find on the Net. He sends e-mails to all the smart friends he knows, all to no avail. After one hour of searching he finally gives up. He wakes up the Irishman and hands him $500. The Irishman pockets the $500 and goes right back to sleep.
The lawyer is going nuts not knowing the answer. He wakes the Irishman up and asks, “Well, so what the hell goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?”
The Irishman reaches in his pocket, hands the lawyer $5 and goes back to sleep.

Hi Suze,
every time I visit the Ripper forum all these in-your-face American ads are at me! In the last month I've been ripped in 2 weeks (twice); had all my teeth replaced and whitened (three times); somehow developed tattoos (just the once); and my wife says I've turned into a shaven-headed baseball-cap-wearing pseudo-macho wanker!
Bloody great!

I don't get any ads. Not that I'm complaining.
I do get jokes though - right here on this thread.
Here are three from Carly:
"Knock knock, knock knock, knock knock, knock knock"
"Who's there?"
"A spider"

What's the difference between a cat and a comma?
A cat has claws at the end of its paws, and a comma is a pause at the end of a clause.

And lastly, one she made up, but then found someone else had thought of it first:
"I used to think I was a Swiss linguist, but now I'm not Saussure."

I turned up at a B&B the other day and rang the bell. A window opened and the landlady stuck her head out. "What you want?" she said.
"I want to stay here", I said.
"Well, stay there then", she said, and closed the window.

A friend, who worked away from home all week, always made a special effort with his family on the weekends. Every Sunday morning he would take his 7-year old granddaughter out for a drive in the car for some bonding time; Just he and his granddaughter.
One particular Sunday however, he had a bad cold and really didn't feel like being up at all. Luckily, his wife came to the rescue and said that she would take their granddaughter out. When they returned, the little girl anxiously ran upstairs to see her Grandfather.
'Well, did you enjoy your ride with grandma?'
'Oh yes, Grampa' the girl replied, and do you know what? We didn't see a single dumb bastard, dip **** or horse's ass anywhere we went today!'

Right...
Al Capone, standing outside a shoe shop. meets Glenn Miller.
After the usual compliments, Glenn, pointing at Al's feet says..
"Say Al, they look expensive!"
"Yup", sure are... crocodile skin, gold buckle, 20 diamonds in the tips. Just got them from in here" he points at the window behind him.
"I will have to try and dedicate a tune to you... but cant quite get it yet..." says Glenn.
Just then, a wild, ferocious cat darts across the road, jumps straight onto Al's feet and starts trying to rip them apart...
"Got it!" says Glenn..
"Pardon me Al, is that the cat-that-chews-the-new-shoes?"
best wishes
