An Irishman named O'Malley went to his doctor after a
long illness. 

The doctor, after a lengthy examination, sighed and
looked O'Malley in the eye, and said, "I've some bad
news for you. You have cancer, and it can't be cured.
I'd give you two weeks to a month to live." 

O'Malley was shocked and saddened by the news, but of
solid character. He managed to compose himself and
walk from the doctor's office into the waiting room.
There, he saw his son who had been waiting. O'Malley
said, "Well son, we Irish celebrate when things are
good, and we celebrate when things don't go so well.
In this case, things aren't so well. I have cancer,
and I've been given a short time to live. Let's head
for the pub and have a few pints." 

After three or four pints, the two were feeling a
little less somber. There were some laughs and more
beers. They were eventually approached by some of
O'Malley's old friends who asked what the two were
celebrating. O'Malley told them that the Irish
celebrate the good and the bad. He went on to tell
them that they were drinking to his impending end. He
told his friends, "I've only got a few weeks to live
as I have been diagnosed with AIDS." 

The friends gave O'Malley their condolences, and they
had a couple more beers. 

After his friends left, O'Malley's son leaned over and
whispered his confusion. "Dad. I though you said that
you were dying from cancer??? You just told your
friends that you were dying from AIDS!" 

O'Malley said, "I am dying of cancer, son. I just
don't want any of them sleeping with your mother after
I'm gone."
