Two brothers Mick and Paddy had an Uncle Seamus who was a seafaring
gent all his life and before he passed away, he made the boys promise to
bury him at sea. Of course he did pass away and the 'boys' remembered to
keep their promise. So off they set with Uncle Seamus all stitched up in
a burial bag and loaded onto their rowing boat.

After a while Mick says, 'Do yer tink dis is fer enuff out, Paddy?'
Without a word Paddy slips over the side, only to be standing in water
up to his knees. 'Dis'll never do Mick, let's row some more'. After a
bit more rowing Paddy slips over the side again but the water is only up
to his belly,so on they row. Again Mick asks Paddy, 'Do yer tink dis is
fer enuff out Paddy?'Once again Paddy slips over the side and almost
immediately says, 'No, dis'll neva do'.............(The water was only
up to his chest). So on they row and row and row when finally Paddy
slips over the side and disappears!

Quite a bit of time goes by and poor Mick is really getting himself into
a state when suddenly Paddy breaks the surface gasping for breath.

'Well is it deep enuff yet, Paddy?'

Aye it tis! Can yer hand me da shovel.'


Nice one. Permission to "borrow" it?
