In a Catholic school cafeteria, a nun places a note in front of a pile of apples, "Only take one. God is watching." Further down the line is a pile of cookies. A little boy makes his own note, "Take all you want. God is watching the apples."

I was sitting in a bar one day & two large women came in, talking in an interesting accent. So, I said, "Cool accent, are you two ladies from Ireland?" One of them snarled at me, "It's Wales, Dumbo!" So, I corrected myself, "My apologies, so are you two whales from Ireland?"
