The Weekly Funny – Best Irish Joke 06

Another via email. Apparently this joke was voted Best Joke in Ireland 2006. You be the judge:

John O’Reilly hoisted his beer and said, ‘Here’s to spending the rest of me life!, between the legs of me wife!’

That won him the top prize at the pub for the best toast of the night!

He went home and told his wife, Mary, ‘I won the prize for the Best toast of the night’ She said, ‘Aye, did ye now. And what was your toast?’ John said, ‘Here’s to spending the rest of me life, sitting in church beside me wife.’ ‘Oh, that is very nice indeed, John!’ Mary said.

The next day, Mary ran into one of John’s drinking buddies on the street corner.

The man chuckled leeringly and said, ‘John won the prize the other night at the pub with a toast about you, Mary.’ She said, ‘Aye, he told me, and I was a bit surprised myself. You know, he’s only been there twice in the last four years. Once he fell asleep, and the other time I had to pull him by the ears to make him come.’

Ok, so it’s a little cruder than my usual round up, but I thought it was quite funny all the same!

Remember: If you have something funny that you would like to see featured in The Weekly Funny, submit it to me or tell me about it via one of the many communication channels you have with me.

Hi everyone. This week, I think I scared and possibly even horrified some of you, when I informed you all about the many dangers and troubles of the internet. We had quite a discussion about hackers, spyware and viruses. After some searching, rather then provide you with links below, I’ll provide you with a Google Search Result List, of which you can do you own reading from, in regards to the dangers of the internet.

Dangers of the Internet Search

What Are Hackers Search

What Are Viruses Search

I also provided you with some links for some useful software that you can download and install onto your own PC’s, to protect you from the dangers that lurk out there on the internet. Some of you may already have these programs.

I am more then happy to make changes, source better content or even create fresh content from scratch, just for you! You need only ask … nicely!

Certificate 1 – S2 Week 8

Actually Posted on 17th September 2008

Hi everyone. This week had a revision session, covering the areas and subjects we have covered this term (Microsoft Excel and Application Integration), in preparation for the quiz next week. Everything we covered today will be in the quiz, plus a little extra! There were no additional notes or resources handed out this session. Remember, you can bring all your notes and print outs to the quiz next week if you wish.

If you have missed any of the previous notes and resources, or would like another copy for whatever reason, you can find the links to them in previous articles. Here is a good place to start.

There will not be a follow video tutorial for this session.
