>A small Wild Animal Park near Dublin acquired a very rare species of gorilla. Within a few weeks, the gorilla, who was a female, became very difficult to handle. Upon examination, the park veterinarian determined the problem.  The gorilla was in heat and to make matters worse, there was no male gorilla available.
Reflecting on their problem, the park administrator thought of Mick Murphy a part-time intern, who was responsible for cleaning the animals' cages. Mick, like most simple Paddies, had little sense, but possessed ample ability to satisfy a female of any species. The park administrator thought they might have a solution.

Mick was approached with a proposition. Would he be willing to have sex with the gorilla for £500.00?

Mick showed some interest but said he would have to think the matter over carefully. The following day, Mick announced that he would accept their offer but only under the following four conditions.

''First," he said, "I don't want to have to kiss her on the lips."

The park administrator quickly agreed to this condition.

"Second," Mick said, "you must never tell anyone about this."

The park administrator again readily agreed to this condition.

"Third," Mick said, "I want all the offspring to be raised Roman Catholic."

Once again the administrator agreed.

And last of all Eddie stated, "You've got to give me another week to >come up with the £500.00."
