O’Hullahan and O’Brian are two middle aged Irishmen who are courting the same Irish girl. The lady likes both of them but she can’t make up her mind as to the one she likes best.
Realizing that this could become a problem if they were to meet, she decided to date one on even numbered nights and the other on odd numbered nights. In not realizing that some months had thirty one days and that day was follow by a month starting with a first day, it created a large problem. She didn’t know what to do, so she consulted her Priest, Father O’Malley of her church. After a long discussion, he advised her to date one or the other, every other night and give up the odd and even numbered nights.
Well this worked just fine, until one night O’Hullahan, who worked in a whisky ware-house, was injured when a whisky barrel rolled on top of him and he was unable to keep his date with this girl Kathleen Harrigan. So he called Kathleen and told her about his accident and that he can’t keep his date with her. He also tells her that he will order her dinner and have it delivered to her. He called a Hungarian restaurant and ordered her a dinner. Being a Friday night and all good Catholic’s have fish on Friday. The restaurant sends a fish dinner to the lady. But it seems that an old Gypsy women is having a disagreement with some fishermen and she puts a curse on the fisherman and the fish they catch.
The fish dinner was delivered and the lady sets down and enjoys the dinner. The next morning she is found in her bed, Motionless. It is thought that she has passed on. Father O’Malley is called and plans are made for her funeral, but the day before the funeral, Father O’Malley disappears. The two Irishman decide to hold a wake for Kathleen at an Irish Pub. They place her in a chair with each of them seated on each side of her.
As they sat there, they keep ordering a beer and a boiled egg for each of themselves and a small Irish whisky for Kathleen and they keep wetting her lips with the Irish whisky.
O’Hullahan says to O’Brian, you don’t have to be Irish to find the Pot of Gold at the end of the Rainbow. That is true, Says O’Brian, but you do have to fight a duel with a Leprechaun and win, to get the pot of Gold. All this time that they are discussing this, Kathleen begins to awaken. While, O’Hullahan and O’Malley are pretending to duel with each other, Kathleen Harrigan becomes fully awake. She picks up the pot of gold and places it under her arm, lifts up her skirt above her knees and runs away..
There is some moral to this story.
1. The Irish alone, are the keepers of the stone.
2. Women can run faster with skirt up than man can with pants down.
3. Never order fish from Hung aria and don’t argue with an old Gypsy lady.
4. There are NO Easter bunnies in Ireland.
