Angus Broon of Glasgow comes to the little lady of the house exclaiming "Maggie, cud ya be sewin on a wee button that's come off of me fly? I canna button me pants."
"Oh Angus...I've got me hands in the dishpan, go up the stairs and see if Mrs. MacDonald could be helpin ya with it."
About 5 minutes later there's a terrible crash, a bang, a bit of yelling and the sound of a body falling down the stairs. Walking back in the door with a blackend eye and a bloody nose comes Angus.
The little lady looks at him and says "My God, what happened to ya? Did you ask her like I told you?"
"Aye" says Angus. "I asked her to sew on the wee button and she did. Everything was goin' fine but when she bent down to bite off the wee thread...Mr. MacDonald walked in..."


A Scotsman and an Englishman were leaning against the counter in a store when a bandit walked in and brandished his gun. The Scot, a quick thinker, hauled out his money and handed it to his English friend. He said, Here's the ten dollars you lent me."

A sales rep's car breaks down in the Scottish highlands. He sees a farmer and asks him where he can find a mechanic. "Och none of them aroond here laddie," says the farmer, "We're all McDonalds."

A kilted Scotsman was walking down a country path after finishing off a considerable amount of whisky at a local pub. As he staggered down the road, he felt quite sleepy and decided to take a nap, with his back against a tree.
As he slept, two young lasses walked down the road and heard the Scotsman snoring loudly. They saw him, and one said, "I've always wondered what a Scotsman wears under his kilt." She boldly walked over to the sleeping man, raised his kilt, and saw what nature had provided him at his birth.
Her friend said, "Well, he has solved a great mystery for us! Now, he must be rewarded!" So, she took a blue ribbon from her hair, and gently tied it around what nature had provided the Scotsman, and the two walked away.
Some time later, the Scotsman was awakened by the call of nature, and walked around to the other side of the tree to relieve himself. He raised his kilt... and saw where the blue ribbon was tied. After several moments of bewilderment, the Scotsman said... "I donna know where y'been lad... but it's nice ta'know y'won first prize!"

Concerning bagpipes: The Irish invented them and gave them to the Scots as a joke, and the Scots haven't seen the joke yet.

The second woman looks under his kilt and says "That's not my husband, either."
The third woman looks under his kilt and says "Why, he's not even from this village!"

Girl to man in kilt: "Is anything worn under the kilt?"
Man to girl: "No, it's all in perfect working order!"


EDINBURGH (DWPI) -- Following a wave of Scottish nationalism sparked by the movie "Braveheart", Scotland has overwhelmingly decided to form its own parliament separate from that in London. The new parliament's first act was to declare actor Mel Gibson their new King. A parliamentary spokesman, Lord Theodore MacNugent, is quoted as saying, "The prospects in the current royal family don't look too good and let's face it, Mel looks damn good in a kilt!"

MacBeth the Scot

(Sung to the tune of "Mack the Knife")

Oh the Black Knight/has a longsword
And he keeps it/gleaming bright
Just a dagger/has old MacBeth, Dear
But he keeps it/out of sight!

When the Black Knight/strikes with his longsword
Billows of scarlet/start to spread
Fancy gloves wears/old MacBeth, Dear
So there's never/never a trace of red!

In the castle/in the guestroom
Lies a body/oozing light
Someone sneaking/'round the corner
Could that someone/be MacBeth the Scot?

Jenny Diver/Suzie Tawdry
Miss Lottalynnia/old Lucy Brown
Oh that line forms/on the right, Babe
Now that MacBeth/he's back in town!

(Big Finale)
Oh that line forms/on the right, Babe
Now that MacBeth/he's back in town!

(Spoken)
Look out! Old Macky's BACK!!!
