An Irishman, a Mexican, and a Redneck were doing construction work on
scaffolding on the 20th floor of a building.  They were eating lunch and
the Irishman said "Corned beef and cabbage!  If I get corned beef and
cabbage one more time for lunch I'm going to jump off this building."  The
Mexican opened his lunch box and exclaimed "Burritos again!  If I get
burritos one more time I'm going to jump off, too."  The Redneck opened his
lunch and said, "Bologna again.  If I get a bologna sandwich one more time
I'm jumping too."  Next day - the Irishman opens his lunch box, sees corned
beef and cabbage and jumps to his death.  The Mexican open his lunch, sees
a burrito and jumps, too.  The Redneck opens his lunch, sees the bologna
and jumps to his death also.  At the funeral - The Irishman's wife is
weeping.  She says, "If I'd known how really tired he was of corned beef
and cabbage I never would have given it to him again!"  The Mexican's wife
also weeps and says "I could have given him tacos or enchiladas!  I didn't
realize he hated burritos so much."  Everyone turned and stared at the
Redneck's wife.  "Hey, don't look at me" she said.  "He makes his own
lunch!"
