Yorkshire baby

A rugby league fan is drinking in a Yorkshire bar, when he gets a
call on his mobile phone.

He hangs up, grinning from ear to ear, and orders a round of drinks
for everybody in the bar, announcing his wife has just given birth to
a typical Yorkshire baby boy weighing 25 pounds.
Nobody can believe that any new baby could weigh in at 25 pounds, but
the rugby fan just shrugs and replies, "That's about average in
Yorkshire ... like I said, my boy's a typical Yorkshire baby boy.
Gonna be a rugby league player."


Congratulations showered him from all around, amid many exclamations
of "WOW!" One woman actually fainted due to sympathy pains.
Two weeks later, he returns to the bar. The bartender says, "Say,
aren't you the father of that typical Yorkshire baby that weighed 25
pounds at birth??
Everybody's been making bets about how big he'd be in two weeks. So,
how much does he weigh now?"

The proud father answers, "Twenty pounds."

The bartender is puzzled, concerned and a little suspicious. "What
happened? He already weighed 25 pounds the day he was born"

The Yorkshire man takes a slow swig of his Samuel Smith's, wipes his
lips on his shirt sleeve, leans into the bartender and proudly says,
"Had him circumcised..."

Last one was an Aussie in an American bar.

In 1959, the territory of Alaska was admitted as the 49th state of Murrica, and Texas was no longer the largest. A Texan and an Alaskan had visited some pubs in Washington DC. Walking across a bridge to Virginia, they both wee'd into the Potomac River. The Alaskan said, "This river sure is cold." The Texan said, "Yeah, and it's deep too." Or mebbe 'twas t'other way 'round. Would work even better in Sydney, and I hope this doesn't get zapped by the day shift.
