      <![CDATA[<p>We interrupt this blog for a mildly naughty story.  See the Flash Traffic/Extended Entry.</p>

<p>But first, this short subject:</p>

<blockquote>
<i>Friendship Between Women:</i>

<p>A woman didn't come home one night.  The next day she told her husband that she had slept over at a girlfriend's house.</p>

<p>The man called his wife's 10 best friends. None of them knew anything about it.</p>

<p><i>Friendship Between Men:</i></p>

<p>A man didn't come home one night. The next day he told his wife that he had slept over at a buddy's house. The woman called her husband's 10 best friends.</p>

<p>Eight of them confirmed that he had slept over, and two claimed that he was still there.<br />
</blockquote></p>

<p>And now, our Feature Presentation.</p>]]>
      <![CDATA[<blockquote>

<p>A golfer in Ireland hit a bad hook into the woods. Looking for the ball, he discovered a Leprechaun flat on his back, a big bump on his head, and the golfer's ball beside him. Horrified, the golfer took his water bottle from his belt and poured it over the little guy, reviving him. <br />
  <br />
"Arrgh! What happened?" the leprechaun says. "Oh, I see. Waal, ye got me fair and square. Ye get three wishes. Whaddya want?" <br />
  <br />
"Thank God, you're all right!" the golfer answers in relief. "I don't want anything." I'm glad you're okay, and I apologize. I didn't mean to hit you." And the golfer walks off. <br />
  <br />
"What a nice guy," the leprechaun says to himself. "But it was fair and square that he got me, and I have to do something for him. I'll give him three things I would want... a great golf game, all the money he ever needs, and a fantastic sex life." <br />
  <br />
 A year goes by (as it does, in jokes like this) and the golfer is back, hits another bad ball into the woods and finds the leprechaun waiting for him. <br />
  <br />
'Twas me that made ye hit the ball here," the little guy says. "I wanted to ask ye, how's yer golf game?" <br />
  <br />
"That's the first bad ball I've hit in a year! I'm a famous international golfer now," the golfer answers. "By the way, it's good to see you're all right." <br />
  <br />
"Oh, I'm fine now, thankee. I did that fer yer golf game. And tell me, how's yer money?" <br />
  <br />
"Why, I win fortunes in golf. But, if I need cash, I just reach in my pocket and pull out $100 bills all day long." <br />
  <br />
"I did that fer ye. And how's yer sex life?" <br />
  <br />
The golfer blushes, turns his head away in embarrassment and says shyly, "Errr, all right, I suppose." <br />
  <br />
"C'mon, c'mon now. I'm wanting to know if I did a good job. How many times a day?" <br />
  <br />
Blushing even more, the golfer whispers, "Once...sometimes twice a week." "What!" says the leprechaun in shock. "That's all? Once or twice a week?" <br />
  <br />
"Well," says the golfer, "I figure that's not too bad for a Catholic priest in a small parish." </p>

</blockquote>

<p>The commentary is - "Heh.  Why was I relieved it wasn't a paedophilia joke...?"<br />
