  1. There was once an Irishman working with a lot of English men. They were always trying to fool him in every way they could. One evening when they were going home they were putting on their coats & the Irish man found that there was a sketch of an ass drawn on his coat with chalk. He looked around at every one then he said "which of your dried your face in my coat".
