An Irish family falls on hard times at the death of their father. The three brothers decide that they must go out into the world to seek their fortunes. One brother will stay in Ireland to look after their mum, one brother will go to Australia to make a bundle, and the third brother to New York where he'll do his best to make money and send some back to support dear old mum. The three brothers agree that they will always remember each other by buying a drink for the absent two brothers.


The brother who goes to New York walks into a bar and orders three whiskeys and three beer chasers. Bartender sets him up. This goes on for weeks. Eventually, the bar tender screws up his courage and asks, Why it is that no matter what you're drinking you always order three of them? The brother explains the situation.


Years pass with this pattern unchanged.


One day, the Irishman goes into the bar and orders two Guinness's. The bartender, draws the pints into the glasses and thinks to himself, ach, one of his brothers has died. He goes to set the glasses in front of the man and says, I hope this doesn't mean there's been a death in the family.


Oh, no, says the Irishman, nothing like that. My doctor told me I had to quit drinking, so I did.
