THE IRISH FISHERMAN ~

 

The rain    was pouring down outside O’Connor’s Irish Pub.

 

There standing in front of a big puddle outside the pub was an old Irishman, drenched, 

holding a stick,  with a piece of string dangling in the water.

 

A passer-by stopped and asked him, “What are you doing?

 

“Fishing”   , replied the old man.

 

Feeling sorry for the old man, the gent says,

 

“Come in out of the rain     and have a drink with me.”

 

In the warm ambiance of the pub, as they sip their whiskies, the gentleman, being a bit of a superior smart ass, cannot resist asking, “So how many have you caught today?”

 

 

 

“You’re the 8th sucker “, replied the old man.
