It's not the apple on the tree on the tree that caused the problem. It was the pair on the groundA soldier going into surgery notices the Army Doctors name is Dr. Eror. He asks the Doctor if the name is correct. The Doctor replies "Yes, but am I better now than when I was a Major".
An Irishman walks into a bar in Dublin, orders three pints of Guinness and sits in the back of the room drinking a sip out of each one in turn. When he finishes them he comes back to the bar and orders three more. The bartender approaches and tells him, "You know, a pint goes flat after I draw it. It would taste better if you bought one at a time”. The Irishman re-plies, "Well, you see, I have two brothers. One is in America the other is in Australia and I'm in Dublin. When we all left home we promised that we'd drink this way to remember the days we drank together. So, I drink one for each o'me broth-ers and one for me self”. The bartender admits that this is a nice custom and leaves it there. The Irishman becomes a regular in the bar and always drinks the same way. He orders three pints and drinks them in turn. One day he comes in and orders two pints. All the other regulars take notice and fall silent. When he comes back to the bar for the second round the bartender says, "I don't want to intrude on your grief but I wanted to offer my condolences on your loss". The Irishman looks quite puzzled for a moment then a light dawns in his eye and he laughs. "Oh no, everybody's just fine". He explains, "It's just that me wife had us join that Baptist Church and I had to quit drinking. Hasn't affected me brothers though”.
