Irish lent

[Jim80]

An Irishman moves into a tiny hamlet in County Kerry , walks
into the Pub and promptly orders three beers. The bartender
raises his eyebrows, but serves the man three beers, which he
drinks quietly at a table, alone.
An hour later, the man has finished the three beers and
orders three more. This happens yet again. The next evening the
man again orders and drinks three beers at a time, several times.
Soon the entire town is whispering about the Man Who Orders Three
Beers.
Finally, a week later, the bartender broaches the subject on
behalf of the town. "I don't mean to pry, but folks around here
are wondering why you always order three beers?"
"Tis odd, isn't it?" the man replies.
"You see, I have two brothers, and one went to America , and the
other to Australia . We promised each other that we would always
order an extra two beers whenever we drank as a way of keeping up
the family bond."
The bartender and the whole town were pleased with this
answer, and soon the Man Who Orders Three Beers became a local
celebrity and a source of pride to the hamlet, even to the extent
that out-of-towners would come to watch him drink.
Then, one day, the man comes in and orders only two
beers. The bartender pours them with a heavy heart. This continues
for the rest of the evening. He orders only two beers. The word
flies around town. Prayers are offered for the soul of one of the brothers.
The next day, the bartender says to the man, "Folks
around here, me first of all, want to offer condolences to you
for the death of your brother. You know-the two beers and all"
The man ponders this for a moment, then replies, "You'll
be happy to hear that my two brothers are alive and well. It's
just that I, meself, have decided to give up drinking for Lent."
