Three men and a baby...
Three men are sitting in the maternity ward of a hospital
waiting for the
imminent birth of their respective children. One is an Englishman, one a
Irishman and the other a West Indian. They are all very
nervous and pacing
the floor - as you do in these situations. All of a sudden
the doctor bursts
through the double doors saying "Gentlemen you won't believe
this but your
wives have all had their babies within 5 minutes of each other."
The men are
beside themselves with happiness and joy. "And", aid the
doctor, "They
have all had little boys." The fathers are ecstatic and congratulate each
other over and over. "However we do have one slight problem," the doctor
said. "In all the confusion we may have mixed the babies up getting
them to
the nursery and would be grateful if you could join us there to try
and help
identify them." With that the Irishman raced passed the doctor and
bolted to
the nursery. Once inside he picked up a dark skinned infant with dreadlocks
crying, "there's no doubt about it, this boy is mine!" The doctor looked
bewildered and said, "Well sir of all the babies I would have thought that
maybe this child could be of West Indian descent." "That's a maybe", said
the Irishman, "but one of the other two is f#cking English and I'm
not
taking the risk."
