Three fine Irish lads, O'Rourke, O'Malley and O'Donnell, worked together
at the local brewery. One day, as fate would have it, O'Rourke fell into
one of the beer vats and drowned. O'Malley and O'Donnell, completely
crestfallen, had to break the news to his wife.
They went 'round the Widow O'Rourke's house and informed her that her
poor dear Patrick had drowned in a beer vat that very day. Choking back
her tears, she asked them "Tell me now, did me poor Patty suffer much?"
"I don't think so," replied O'Donnell. "He climbed out twice to take
a piss."
