You gotta love the Irish
« on: January 15, 2007, 09:49:56 PM »
Bono is at a U2 concert in Ireland when he asks the audience for some quiet. Then in the silence, he starts to slowly clap his hands.
 
Holding the audience in total silence, he says into the microphone..."Every time I clap my hands, a child in Africa dies."
 
A voice from near the front of the audience pierces the silence...




"butterin stop doing it then!"

Could you Snopes that chicken crossing the road thing for me too.  I've always suspected that the chicken had other, more sinister, motivation.

rich liberals all think that giving money to the government is the way us peasants should do things but they always do everything in their power to avoid funding the government..  they even go so far as to give large sums of money to charities or projects that they think are worthy instead of just giving all that cash to the government to disperse.

They don't trust the socialists with their taxes but they expect us to?

Sorry?? What kind of joke is that? Bono slapping and killing African children during a concert here in Ireland.
Sir Bono would never do that. I don't understand????

Where's the joke?
