The day after St Patty's, Father Shea, nursing a headache, rushes to open the rectory door, anxious to stop the loud pounding. As he pulls back the door, one of his parishioners Mrs Flynn pushes past him, crying and screaming, "He's dead Father, he's dead I tell ye." The priest ask who it is that has died and Mrs Flynn answer, "Me blessed, loving husband, Liam himself is who Father. May the Good Laird have mercy on him." The priest is almost in shock, "Aahh, Sweet Mother Jesus, I can't believe it! I've known Liam all me life. We were more than mates, we were brothers and we had a few pints together just last night. Now he's gone. Tell me, did he say anything before he passed on, any final words?" Mrs Flynn, somewhat under control says, "Aye, that he did Father. His last words to me were, "For God's sake Maureen, put down the gun."

I thought the last line would be, "Oh gosh, Maud, that camera looks like a gun. Where's the viewfinder?"
So it would be ok in this section.
I didn't see that ending coming. Funny.
Good one Frank. May you be whipped 20 lashes, with a wet noodle, for posting it in the wrong section.

As all should know, the first appearance is in Upcoming Topics - that is just what it says. After brief residence there a post goes to the forum the sender specified. I first saw this post in Chit Chat.
