The next time Paddy comes to the bar to order another round, Mick inquisitively asks Paddy the reason for buying 3 drinks at once.
Paddy explained, that for many years his two brothers and he drank in this pub every Friday night. Both brothers have now emigrated, one to the US and one to Australia, but they all agreed that every Friday night they would continue the tradition no matter where
they were. Mick satisfied with this explanation served Paddy his Friday
night traditional drinks for many weeks.
Then one week Paddy came in at his normal time and was served by another bar-keep. He noticed that Paddy only ordered two jars of Guinness, then went back to his table looking very dejected.
When Paddy next came to bar Mick had to ask him what
was wrong. Has one of your brothers passed on, Mick asked?
Oh no Paddy replied, it's much worse.
My doctor has told me I have a failing liver and I have to give up the drink......

An Irishman and an Australian are flying to Ireland on Qantas. The take off goes without a problem, but not long into the flight the captain comes over the intercom:
"This is your captain speaking. I'm afraid that one of our engines has failed. It's nothing to worry about, I assure you, but it does mean that our arrival time in Dublin has been put back an hour."
Everything's fine until halfway through the first meal when the captain interrupts again:
"This is your captain speaking. I'm afraid that another of our engines has failed. It's nothing to worry about, we still have two left, but it does mean that our arrival time in Dublin has been put back by three hours."
Once again calm returns until halfway through the in-flight movie:
"This is your captain speaking. A third engine has failed. It's nothing to worry about, due to the wonders of modern technology we can fly on one engine, but it does mean that our arrival time in Dublin has been put back six hours."
At this point the Irishman leans over to the Australian and says "I hope that last engine holds out, or we'll be up here all night!"
