    Once upon a time an Irishman an Englishman and a Scotch-man bought a bottle of whiskey.

    78 Once upon a time an Irishman an Englishman and a Scotch-man bought a bottle of whiskey, and decided that they would divide it in three equal parts. The English-man first, the Scotch-man second, and the Irish-man last, but they would leave the drinking till the following morning. During the night the Irishman got up and drank the whiskey. When asked by the English man and Scotch man for their share of it he said he had to drink their share to get down to his own.
