Honeymoon With My Brother

I'm sitting on the couch, minding my own business, killing time, watching Dennis Miller, when Franz Wisner and his brother come on to the show as guests. My cats are named Hans and Franz, and it's because of Franz Wisner, a former Pete Wilson staffer, that I knew how to spell Franz.

Apparently, some foolish woman left Franz at the alter, stimulating him to spend 2 years traveling around the world, write a book, sign a movie deal and become a celebrated author. Bet she feels stupid now.

It's St. Patrick's Month

and here's a joke for you...

Irish Mastermind Champion

Seamus O Brien had been hailed the most intelligent Irish man for three years running. He had topped such shows as Larry Gogans 'Just a Minute Quiz' and 'Quicksilver' (before Bunny Carrs demise). It was suggested by the Irish Mensa board that he should enter into the English Mastermind Championships. He Did, and won a place. On they evening of the competition, Seamus enters from the crowd and placed himself on the Leather Seat and made himself comfortable. The lights dimmed and a spot light pointed at his face.

Magnus said "Seamus, What Subject are you studying?." Seamus responded, "Irish History". Very well said Magnus, Your first Question,

"In what year did the 'Easter Rising take Place?'

Seamus responds .."Pass"

OK said Magnus, "Who was the Leader of the Easter Rising?",

Seamus Responds .."Pass"

OK said Magnus, How long did the Easter Rising Last?"

Seamus Responds.. "Pass"

Instantly, a voice shout from the Crowd, "Good Man Seamus....Tell the English Nothing...."

It's St. Patrick's Month

And here's a song for you ...

When Irish Eyes Are Smiling
Written by Chauncey Olcott, Performed by Bing Crosby

When Irish eyes are smiling
Sure 'tis like the morn in Spring
In the lilt of Irish laughter
You can hear the angels sing

When Irish hearts are happy
All the world seems bright and gay
And when Irish eyes are smiling
Sure they steal your heart away

When Irish hearts are happy
All the world seems bright and gay
And when Irish eyes are smiling
Sure they steal your heart away.
