An Irish man shows up in a pub one day and orders
three pints of Guinness. He takes sips from each glass
until they are empty and calls the bartender for three
more. The bartender says, "Sure it's up to yourself, but
wouldn't you rather I was bringing them one at a time?
Then they'll be fresh and cold."
"Nah..." your man says, "I'm preferrin' that ye bring 'em
three at a time. You see, me and me two brothers would
meet at a pub and drink and have good times. Now one is
in Australia, the other in Canada and I'm here. We
agreed before we split up that we'd drink to each
other's honor this way."
"Well," says the bartender, "that's a grand thing to do,
all right. I'll bring the pints as ask."
Well, time goes on and your man's peculiar habit is known
and accepted by all the pub regulars. One day though, he
comes in and orders only two pints. A hush falls over the
pub. Naturally, everyone figures something happened
to one of the brothers. A group of the regulars corner
the bartender and finally persuade him to find out what happened.
With a heavy heart, the bartender brings the two pints and says,
"Here's your pints...
and let me offer my sincerest condolences. What happened?"
The Irish man looks extremely puzzled for a moment, and then starts laughing.
"Oh, no, no, no!
'Tis nothing like that. You see, I've given
up drinking for Lent..."
