After having their 11th child, an Irish couple decided that was enough, as they could not afford a larger bed. So the husband went to
his doctor and told him that he and his wife didn't want to have any more children.

The doctor told him there was a procedure called a vasectomy that would fix the problem but it was expensive. A less costly alternative was to go home, get a firework, light it, put it in a beer can, then hold the can up to his ear and count to 10.

The husband said to the doctor, "B'Jayzus, I may not be the smartest guy in the world, but I don't see how putting a firework in a beer can next to my ear is going to help me."

"Trust me, it will do the job", said the doctor.

So the man went home, lit a banger and put it in a beer can. He held the can up to his ear and began to count: "1, 2, 3, 4, 5," at which
point he paused, placed the beer can between his legs so he could continue counting on his other hand.

This procedure also works in Australia

Nah, It wouldn't work for an Aussie. An Aussie would have got to 5 then noticed that the beer can was empty, so he would set it down on the table and gotten up to get a full one.

I can't imagine an Irishman with a beer can. I thought that Guinness only came in bottles?

Personally I don't like Guinness

Drinking Guiness is an acquired taste. It gets it "sour" taste from having a small percentage of soured beer entrained into the final product. The yeast they use is almost 200 years old; it comes from the original pitching in the original batch. Neat, huh?
