This one is ancient, and not particularly funny in and of itself. But every time I go back to New York, I KNOW one of my elderly Irish relatives is going to tell it, and I KNOW I’ll laugh despite the fact that I’ve heard it a thousand times: \*\* Irish farmer Paddy Murphy was planning a trip to London, when his elderly neighbor, Mrs. Dunn, came to visit him. She told him sadly, “Me son Cornelius moved to London two years ago, and he hasn’t written me a single letter since then. I’m so worried about me poor Neily. Since you’re going to London, would you find him and ask him to write to me?” Paddy asked if she had his address, and she handed him an old envelope that said “Cornelius Dunn, London, WC-1.” When Paddy arrived at Heathrow Airport, he asked an attendant, “Do you know where WC-1 is?” The attendant pointed to the lavatory (for those who don’t know, in England, the bathroom is often marked “WC” for “Water Closet”). Paddy said, “This is going to be easier than I thought." He entered the bathroom, walked up to the first stall, looked under the door and saw a pair of feet. He asked, “Are you Neily Dunn?” The man inside replied, “Yes, but there’s no paper in here.” Paddy snapped back, “That’s no excuse .Write home.” ---

A couple were dring to the Old Log Inn when their car got a flat. The spare was flat too, their cell phones got no reception, and it was the middle of nowhere, so the man said he’d just have to walk on ahead and get some help. He walked for miles seeing no one. Then up ahead he saw a parked car. He approached and saw some sillouettes through the foggy windows. However one window was down, so he stuck his head in and said, “Hey, how far’s the Old Log Inn?” - and suddenly everything went black. ---

Bill comes back from his vacation and is chatting at the water cooler with his friend Dave. **Dave** : So, Bill, I understand you went to New Mexico for your summer vacation. Did you do anything interesting? **Bill** : Yeah Dave, I went to a hot air balloon festival. I’d always dreamed of going up in a hot air balloon, and I figured this would be my chance to finally do it. **Dave** : Wow, that sounds exciting! Did you get to go up in one? \*\* Bill\*\*: Yeah, but I hadn’t counted on how expensive it was going to be. I spent my first couple of hours there trying to find someone who’d give me a ride without charging me. Finally, I found a fella who told me he’d get me up there for free. **Dave** : Great! Did the experience live up to your dreams? \*\* Bill\*\*: Well, yeah, I guess, but there turned out to be a catch. We got up about five hundred feet off the ground, and the fella says: _Now let’s talk about how you’re gonna get back down. I got two choices for ya. You can jump outa this here gondola right now,_ That’s what they call those baskets that hang under the balloons, that you ride in, “gondolas.” _or you can drop trou and bend over and let me take you from behind,_ he says to me. **Dave** : Lordalmighty, that’s the last thing I would have expected! So, did you jump? **Bill** : Well, yeah, a little. At first. ---
