Funny Irish Blessing

May those who love us love us.
And those that don’t love us,
May God turn their hearts.
And if He doesn’t turn their hearts,
May He turn their ankles,
So we’ll know them by their limping.

(It's OK -- I'm half Irish!)

May your glass be ever full.

May the roof over your head be always strong.

And may you be in heaven

half an hour before the devil knows you're dead.

A bit of Irish diplomacy:

The ability to tell a man to go to he!! so that he looks forward to the trip.

Slainte!
