What do you call a Scots woman with one leg?
Eileen.

An Englishman, an Irishman and a Scotsman were standing looking at a prize cow in a field.
The Englishman says "Look at that fine English cow."
The Irishman disagreed, saying "No, it's an Irish cow."
The Scotsman thought for a moment and then clinched the argument. "No, it's a Scottish cow - it's got bagpipes underneath!"


Jock decided to call his father-in-law the "Exorcist" cuz every time he came to visit he made the spirits disappear!

ah...well in that case maybe technically I'm a Pict, although the real origins of my last name aren't actually known because it just goes back too far to have reliable history...I know I'm American and I was born in Texas. Beyond that...who knows

didn't mean to hijack your thread...I did laugh at the joke!

I believe that the Picts were originally from what was termed "Caledonia". The forefathers of the Scots.

my last name is Grant, so I'm Scottish by name but I've not even been there yet...don't think we were picts although I haven't done any research on our geneaology so I really don't know for sure.

An English man and an Irish man are driving head on , at night, on a twisty, dark road. Both are driving to fast for the conditions and collide on a sharp bend in the road. To the amazement of both, they are unscathed, though their cars are both destroyed. In celebration of their luck, both agree to put aside their dislike for the other from that moment on. At this point, the Irish man goes to the boot and fetches a 12 year old bottle of Jameson whiskey. He hands the bottle to the English man, whom exclaims,'' may the English and the Irish live together forever, in peace, and harmony.'' The English man then tips the bottle and lashes half of it down. Still flabbergasted over the whole thing, he goes to hand the bottle to the Irish man, whom replies: '' no thanks, I'll just wait till the Garda get here!''
