A Greek and an Irishman were sitting in a Starbuck's cafe one day discussing who had the superior culture. Over triple lattes the Greek guy says, 'Well, we Greeks built the Parthenon,' arching his eyebrows.
The Irishman then replies, 'Well…It was the Irish who discovered the Summer and Winter Solstices.'
The Greek retorts, 'We Greeks gave birth to advanced mathematics.' The Irishman, nodding in agreement, says, 'The Irish were the ones who built the first timepieces and calendars.'
And so on until the Greek comes up with what he thinks will end the discussion. With a flourish of finality he says, 'The Greeks were the ones who invented sex!'
The Irishman replies, 'Indeed, that is true, but it was we Irish who introduced it to women.'
***********************************************
Ah the honesty of the Irish
An armed hooded robber bursts into the Bank of Ireland and forces the
tellers to load a sack full of cash.
On his way out the door with the loot, one brave Irish customer grabs the
hood and pulls it off revealing the robber's face. The robber shoots the guy without hesitation!
He then looks around the bank to see if anyone else has seen him.
One of the tellers is looking straight at him and the robber walks over
and calmly shoots him also.
Everyone by now is very scared and looking down at the floor.
"Did anyone else see my face?" calls the robber.
There are a few moments of silence...then one elderly Irish gent, looking
down, tentatively rais es his hand and says:
"I think me wife may have caught a glimpse ....."
