Irish jokes

- A Leprechaun Puzzle
A leprechaun bought himself a jigsaw puzzle with 20 pieces.  It took him a month to fit the pieces together correctly.  He thought this was terrific, but his mate O'Reilly said, 'What's the big deal?'
The Leprechaun said, 'Well it said on the box: 4 to 6 years.'

- When the Irish say that St. Patrick chased the snakes out of Ireland, what they don't tell you is that he was the only one who saw any snakes!

- Paddy was shaving when he knocked the mirror off the shelf and it fell to the floor and it cracked across the middle. Paddy gazed in horror. 'Bejabbers, I've cut my throat,' he gasped.

Alcoholic Insect
Three men walk into a bar: a Frenchman, an Italian and an Irishman. Each orders one beer. Three flies fly into the bar and one fly lands in each man's beer. 

The Italian man plucks the fly out of his beer, says "tutto e bene" (all is well)" and drinks the beer. 
The Frenchman shows his beer with the bug still inside it to the bartender and demands another beer. 
The Irishman yanks the bug out of the beer, grabs it by its wings, shakes it while yelling 

"Cough it up, you wee theivin' bastard!"
 

- Closing time

The old soldier hopped in, crutch under one arm, and called to Murphy the barman. 'A pint of the dark stuff.'
Too late,' said Murphy, 'we've just closed up.' 'Ah come on,' said the soldier. 'I lost my leg at Dunkirk.' 'Well, you won't find it in this pub,' said Murphy.
