Two Irishmen walk into a pet shop in Dingle. They head to the
bird section and Gerry says to Paddy, "Dat's dem." The owner
comes over and asks if he can help them.
"Yeah, we'll take four of dem dere little budgies in dat cage up
dere," says Gerry.
The owner puts the budgies in a paper bag. Paddy and Gerry pay
for the birds, leave the shop and get into Gerry's truck to drive
to the top of the ConnorPass.
At the ConnorPass, Gerry looks down at the 1000' foot drop and
says,"Dis looks like a grand place." He takes two birds out of
the bag, puts them on his shoulders and jumps off the cliff.
Paddy watches as Gerry falls all the way to the bottom, killing Himself
stone dead.
Looking down at the remains of his best pal, Paddy shakes his
head and says, "Bajasus. Dis budgie jumping is too dangerous
for me!"
THERE'S MORE
Moment's later, Seamus arrives up at ConnorPass.He's been to
the Pet shop too and walks up to the edge of the cliff carrying
another paper bag in one hand and a shotgun in the other. "Hi, Paddy.
Watch dis,"
Seamus says. He takes a parrot from the bag and throws himself
over the edge of the cliff. Paddy watches as half way down, Seamus
takes the gun and shoots the parrot. Seamus continues to plummet down
and down until he hits the bottom and breaks every bone in his body.
Paddy shakes his head and says, "And I'm never trying dat
parrotshooting either!"
IT IS NOT OVER YET
Paddy is just getting over the shock of losing two friends when
Sean Og appears. He's also been to the pet shop and is carrying a
paper bag
Out of which he pulls a chicken. Sean Og then hurls himself off
the cliff and disappears down and down until he hits a rock and
breaks his spine. Once more Paddy shakes his head.
"Bajasus, lads. First dere was Gerry with his budgie jumping,
den Seamus parrotshooting...and now Sean Og and his
hengliding!"
