Paddy McCoy, an elderly Irish farmer, received a letter from the Department for Work & Pensions, stating that they suspected he was not paying his em- ployees enough and they would send an inspector to interview them. On the appointed day, the inspector


turned up. "Tell me about your staff," he asked Paddy. "Well," said Paddy, "there's the farm hand I pay him £240 a week, and he has a free cottage.


Then there's the housekeeper. She gets £190 a week, along with free board and lodging. There's also the half-wit. He works a 16 hour day, does 90% of the work, earns about £25 a week, along with a bottle of gin, and about once every 6 months gets to sleep with my missus." "That's who I want to talk to," said the inspector, “the half-wit." "That'll be me then," said Paddy.

This accurately describes the ‘benefits’ of owning your own business!


This one is from George Larkey ‘s Brother in-Law in Aussie


A doctor was addressing a large audience with questions on health!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


"The material we put into our stomachs should have killed most of us sitting here, years ago.


Red meat is full of steroids and dye. Soft drinks corrode your stomach lining. Chinese food is loaded with MSG.


High transfat diets can be disastrous and none of you realises the long-term harm caused by the germs in our drinking water.


But, there is one thing that is the most dan- gerous of all and most of us have, or will eat it.


Can anyone tell me what food it is that causes the most grief and suffering for years after eating it?"


After several seconds of quiet, a 70 year old man in the front row raised his hand, and softly said. . . .


"Wedding Cake."


Celibacy can be a choice in life, or a condition imposed by circumstances.


While attending a Marriage Weekend Ken and his wife, Janet, listened to the instructor declare, 'it is essential that hus- bands and wives know the things that are important to each other.'


He then addressed the men, 'Can you name and describe your wife's favourite flower?' Ken leaned over, touched Janet's arm gently, and whispered, "Homepride, isn't it?"


And thus began Ken's life of celibacy.
