hospital. After a while, one guy looks at the other and says, "I can't help but
think, from listening to you, that you're from Ireland."
The other guy responds proudly, "Yes, that I am!"
The first guy says, "So am I! And where about from Ireland might you be?"
The other guy answers, "I'm from Dublin, I am."
The first guy responds, "Sure and begora, and so am I! And what street did you
live on in Dublin?"
The other guy says, "A lovely little area it was. I lived on McCleary Street in
the old central part of town."
The first guy says, "Faith & it's a small world, so did I! And to what school
would you have been going?"
The other guy answers, "Well now, I went to St. Mary's of course."
The first guy gets really excited, and says, "And so did I. Tell me, what year
did you graduate?"
The other guy answers, "Well, now, I graduated in 1964."
The first guy exclaims, "The Good Lord must be smiling down upon us!
I can hardly believe our good luck at winding up in the same hospital tonight.
Can you believe it, I graduated from St. Mary's in 1964 my own self."
About this time, the emergency room attendant walks into the room, shaking his
head & mutters, "It's going to be a long night tonight, the Murphy twins each
have concussions."
