  1. There was once an old man who was in the habit of drinking and he used to bring a donkey and car with him to the house and this he had a few extra drinks and he fell asleep on his way home. In the meantime some playboys came along and took the donkey and when he woke up he had no donkey. So he pulled the car himself and when he was passing the barracks the guards saw him and asked him his name and he said his name was Patt Ryan and I lost my ass and if I am anybody else I have found a car.
