A group of people were touring Ireland. One of the women in the group
was a real witch, constantly complaining. The bus seats are
uncomfortable the food is terrible It's too hot, It's too cold & the
accommodations are awful.
The group arrived at the site of the famous Blarney Stone.'Good luck
will be following you all your days, if you kiss the Blarney Stone,'
the guide said. 'Unfortunately, it's being cleaned today and so no
one will be able to kiss it. Perhaps we can come back tomorrow.'
'We can't be here tomorrow,' the nasty woman shouted. 'We have some
other boring tour to go on. So I guess we can't kiss the stupid stone.'
'Well now,' the guide said, 'it is said that if you kiss someone who
has kissed the stone, you'll have the same good fortune.' 'And I
suppose you've kissed the stone,' the woman scoffed. 'No, ma'am,'
the irritated guide said, 'but I've sat on it.'
