An American man, a Russian man, and an African man were all up in a hot-air balloon together. After a few minutes, the Russian man put his hand down through the clouds.

- Aaah! - he said.

- We're right over my homeland.

- How can you tell? - asked the American.

- I can feel the cold air - he replied.

A few hours later the African man put his hand through the clouds.

- Aah, we're right over my homeland - he said.

- How do you know that? - asked the Russian.

- I can feel the heat of the desert.

Several more hours later the American put his hand through the clouds.

- Aah, we're right over New York.

The Russian and the African were amazed.

- How do you know all of that? - they exclaimed.

The American pulled his hand up.

- My watch is missing.

An Englishman, a Scotsman and an Irishman were without tickets for the opening ceremonies of the summer Olympics but hoped to be able to talk their way in at the gate. Security was very tight, however, and each of their attempts was met with a stern refusal.

While wandering around outside the stadium, the Englishman came upon construction site, which gave him an idea. Grabbing a length of scaffolding, he presented himself at the gate and said:

- Johnson, the pole vault - and was admitted.

The Scotsman, overhearing this, went at once to search the site. When he came up with a sledge hammer, he presented himself at the gate and said:

- McTavish, the hammer.

He was also admitted.

The Irishman combed the site for an hour and was nearly ready to give up when he spotted his ticket in. Seizing a roll of barbed wire, he presented himself at the gate and announced:

- O'Sullivan, fencing.

Recently, Germany conducted some scientific exploration involving their best scientists. Core drilling samples of earth were taken to a depth of 50m and during the core examinations, small pieces of copper were discovered. After running many arduous tests on these samples, the German government announced that the ancient Germans 25,000 years ago had a nationwide telephone network.

Naturally, the British government was not that easily impressed. So they ordered their own scientists to take their core samples at a depth of 100m. From these samples, they found small pieces of glass and soon announced that the ancient Brits 35,000 years ago already had a nationwide optical fibre network.

Irish scientists were outraged. So immediately after this announcement, they ordered their scientist to take samples at a depth of 200m but found absolutely nothing. They concluded that the ancient Irish 55,000 years ago were an even more advanced civilisation, as they already had a mobile telephone network in place.

Three guys, one Irish, one English, and one Scottish, are out walking along the beach together one day. They come across a lantern and a Genie pops out of it.

- I will give you each one wish, that's three wishes in total - says the Genie.

The Scottish guy says:

- I am a fisherman, my Dad's a fisherman, his Dad was a fisherman and my son will be one too. I want all the oceans full of fish for all eternity.

So, with a blink of the Genie's eye FOOM! the oceans were teaming with fish. The Englishman was amazed, so he said:

- I want a wall around England, protecting her, so that no one will get in for all eternity.

Again, with a blink of the Genie's eye POOF! there was a huge wall around England.

The Irishman asks:

- I'm very curious. Please tell me more about this wall.

The Genie explains:

- Well, it's about 150 feet high, 50 feet thick, protecting England so that nothing can get in or out.

The Irishman says:

- Fill it up with water.

The Irish girl knelt in the confessional and said:

- Bless me, Father, for I have sinned.

- What is it, child?

The girl said:

- Father, I have committed the sin of vanity. Twice a day I gaze at myself in the mirror and tell myself how beautiful I am.

The priest turned, took a good look at the girl, and said:

- My dear, I have good news. That isn't a sin - it's only a mistake.
