And some background on the whole Sarah Silverman/MattDamon/Jimmy Kimmel/Ben Affleck thing:
In case your not aware it’s all just a joke! 🙂

Steven Wright!
Is one of my favorite comedians and he’s from Boston too. I’ve never seen him live, but used to have one of his performances on tape (aye that was some time ago). His humour is very droll. But, here are some of his one-liners (via the Linux fortune command):
I used to live in a house by the freeway. When I went anywhere, I had to be going 65 MPH by the end of my driveway.
I replaced the headlights in my car with strobe lights. Now it looks like I’m the only one moving.
I was pulled over for speeding today. The officer said, “Don’t you know the speed limit is 55 miles an hour?” And I said, “Yes, but I wasn’t going to be out that long.”
I put a new engine in my car, but didn’t take the old one out. Now my car goes 500 miles an hour.

And a couple of one-liners from Fortune!
You think Oedipus had a problem — Adam was Eve’s mother.
“All snakes who wish to remain in Ireland will please raise their right hands.”
— Saint Patrick
You might need to be Irish to get this one! 🙂 But, Joe Dolan was an Irish singer whose career started in the late 1960’s and extended to his death in late 2007.
Ok, here’s the joke:
As it’s March the 1st and we’re approaching Saint Patrick’s Day (and the abberviation of Patrick is Paddy not Patty), time for some Irish jokes!
From a friend of Trish’s:
