Irish Sailors

Lost at Sea, two Irishmen, Patrick & Michael,
were adrift in a lifeboat following a dramatic
escape from a burning freighter. While rummaging
through the boat's provisions, Patrick stumbled
across an old lamp. Secretly hoping that a genie
would appear, he rubbed the lamp vigorously.
To his amazement, a genie came forth. This
particular genie, however, stated that he could
only deliver one wish,not the standard three.
Without giving much thought to the matter,
Patrick blurted out, "Make the entire ocean
into Guinness Beer! The genie clapped his hands
with a deafening crash, and immediately the
entire sea turned into the finest brew ever
sampled by mortals.
Simultaneously, the genie vanished. Only
the gentle lapping of Guinness on the hull
broke the stillness as the two men considered
their circumstances. Michael looked disgustedly
at Patrick and after a long, tension filled
moment, he spoke.
"Nice going Patrick! Now we're going to
have to pee in the boat."
