Today's Laugh.............................Ha Ha Ha !!!   


JUST KIDDING !!!


Irish Confession:


"I went into the confessional box after many years of being away from the Catholic Church.


"Inside I found a fully equipped bar with Guinness on tap. On one wall, there was a row of decanters with fine Irish whiskey and Waterford crystal glasses.


"On the other wall was a dazzling array of the finest cigars and chocolates.


"When the priest came in, I said to him, 'Father, forgive me, for it's been a very long time since I've been to confession, but I must first admit that the confessional box is much more inviting than it used to be.'

He replied, "You moron, you're on my side."
