Paddy and Seamus come out of the bar and stand on the village green looking up at the flagpole. A blonde comes along and says, "What are youse two eejits looking up at the flagpole for?"
Seamus replies, "Oh, we were just wondering how high it is."

So the blonde reaches into her handbag and pulls out a tape measure, unlocks one of the bolts and gently lowers the flagpole to the ground. "Thirty two feet and four inches," she says.

"Jaysus!" says Seamus, "Ask a blonde the height of something and she gives you the friggin' length."
