  Two PCT section backpackers are sitting next to each other at a bar in a popular trailtown.  After a while, one guy looks at the other and says, "I can't help but think, from listening to you, that you're from Ireland."


  The other guy responds proudly, "Yes, that I am."

  The first guy says, "So am I, and where about from Ireland might
  you be?"

   The other guy answers, "I'm from Dublin , I am."

  The first guy responds, "Sure and begora, and so am I. And what
  street did you live on in Dublin ?"

  The other guy says, "A lovely little area it was, I lived on McCleary Street in the old central part of town."

  The first guy says, "Faith and it's a small world, so did I.

  And to what school would you have been going?"

  The other guy answers, "Well now, I went to St. Mary's of course."

  The first guy gets really excited and says, "And so did I. Tell me, what year did you graduate?"

  The other guy answers, "Well, now, let's see, I graduated in 1984."


  The first guy exclaims, "The Good Lord must be smiling down upon us!
   I can hardly believe our good luck at winding up in the same bar tonight. Can you believe it, I graduated from St. Mary's in 1984 my own self."


  About this time, PCT Yo-Yo hikers Vicky and Jennifer walk into the bar and sit down to order hot pizza and ice cold beers.

  Brian, the bartender, walks over to them, shaking his head & mutters, "It's going to be another long night tonight and it is their second zero day."


  Vicky asks, "Why do you say that, Brian?"

  "The Murphy twins are drunk again."
