 Two Irishmen walk into a pet shop. Right away they go over to the bird section. Gerry says to Paddy, "Dat's dem". The clerk comes over and asks if he can help them. "Yeah, we'll take four of dem dere birds in dat cage up dere," says Gerry, "Put dem in a peeper bag." The clerk does and the two guys pay for the birds and leave the shop. They get into Gerry's van and drive until they are high up in the hills and stop at the top of a cliff with a 500-foot drop. "Dis look loike a grand place, eh?" says Gerry. "Oh, yeh, dis looks good," replies Paddy. They flip a coin and Gerry wins the toss. "I guess I git to go first, eh Paddy?" says Gerry. He then takes two birds out of the bag, places them on his shoulders and jumps off the cliff. Paddy watches as his mate drops off the edge and goes straight down for a few seconds followed by a 'SPLAT'. As Paddy looks over the edge of the cliff he shakes his head and says, "Feck dis, dis budgie jumpin' is too feckin' dangerous for me!!
PART TWO A minute later, Seamus arrives. He too has been to the pet shop and he walks up carrying the familiar 'peeper bag'. He pulls a parrot out of the bag, and then Paddy notices that, in his other hand, Seamus is carrying a gun. "Hi, Paddy. Watch this," Seamus says and launches himself over the edge of the cliff. Paddy watches as half way down, Seamus takes the gun and blows the parrot's head off. Seamus continues to plummet until there is a SPLAT!, as he joins Gerry's remains at the bottom. Paddy shakes his head and says, "An' oim never troyin' dat parrotshooting nider"

 A Ballymena man got on the bus in Belfast and nearly had a fit when he was told the fare was 45 pence, he had a fierce argument with the driver until finally the driver got so exasperated that he stopped the bus, picked up the man's suitcase and flung it out of the door and into the River Lagan. “For goodness sake”, said the Ballymena man. “First you try to rob me, now you try to drown my son.”
 Paddy walks into the emergency room of the local hospital with both of his ears badly burnt and says, “The phone rang and I picked up the iron by mistake.” The Nurse asked, “How did you burn the other ear?” “I did that,' said Paddy, “when I went to call the ambulance.”

 Ballymena man goes on a tour of the Holy Land, and one of the visits is to the Sea of Galilee, where there are small rowing boats for hire. The Ballymena man and his mate hear the tour guide announcing that this is the Sea where Jesus walked on the water, so they decide to hire a rowing boat, and go for a quick tour round the lake. The Ballymena man asks the Boat owner "How much to hire a rowing boat", the owner replies, "£10 for 30 minutes", "WHAT! " says the Ballymena man surprised, "Now I know why Jesus walked on the water".
