145 years

Late night, Paddy, Sean and Shamus were stumbling home from the pub and wandered into the graveyard. "Come have a look over here," said Paddy. "It's Micheal O' Grady's grave. God bless his soul. He lived to the ripe old age of 87."

"That's nothing,"said Sean. "Here's one named Jack Kenzo. It says here that he was 98 when he died."

Just then Shamus yelled out,"Forget him, here's a fellow who lived up to 145 years!"

"What's his name?" asked Paddy.

Shamus fumbled around trying to light a match to see what else was written on the stone marker, then said, "Miles to Dublin."
