Let's ride a train!



Shot taken in New Mexico while traveling on I-40 at 75 mph... and that was between two snow showers, well first was a snow storm actually, just before Albuquerque, while the second just a snow shower, somewhere close to the AZ state line...

Today's joke:

A man stumbles up to the only other patron in a bar and asks if he can buy him a drink."Why, of course," comes the reply. The first man then asks: "Where are you from?"
"I'm from Ireland," replies the second man.
The first man responds: "You don't say, I'm from Ireland, too! Let's have another round to Ireland."
"Of course," replies the second man.
Curious, the first man then asks: "Where in Ireland are you from?"
"Dublin," comes the reply.
"I can't believe it," says the first man.
"I'm from Dublin, too! Let's have another drink to Dublin."
"Of course," replies the second man.
Curiosity again strikes and the first man asks:
"What school did you go to?"
"Saint Mary's," replies the second man.
"I graduated in '62."
"This is unbelievable!" the first man says.
"I went to Saint Mary's and I graduated in '62, too!"
About that time, in comes one of the regulars and sits down at the bar.
"What's been going on?" he asks the bartender.
"Nothing much," replies the bartender. "The O'Malley twins are drunk again."

  1. Lmao...Great joke!
    Snow in New Mexico? Man that sounds weird, Up here it's practically a heat wave. Last year at this time (minus a week) we were at -35c. It's well above freezing right now. We normally don't see this kind of temperature till the beginning of May.
