Re: [ST] In honor of the day...



Lighten up Mike!  They're only jokes.

I've been married into an Irish family for over 30 years and they have no 
issues with Irish jokes or me telling them.  I also happen to tell a whole 
bunch of other jokes depreciating my own ancestry (German and Italian).  As 
far as having balls, I've been known to give my Jewish boss, my Italian 
CEO, and others many a ribbing about being cheap, etc....  I also have some 
African American friends that we can give each other a fair amount of ribbing.

Besides are you going to try and tell me that you've never told an ethnic 
joke in your life?
