A 98-year-old Mother Superior from  Ireland  was dying. The nuns gathered
around her bed trying to make her last journey comfortable. They tried
giving her some warm milk to drink but she refused it.

One of the nuns took the glass back to the kitchen and remembering a bottle
of Irish whiskey received as a gift the previous Christmas, she opened it
and poured a generous amount into the warm milk.

Back at Mother Superior's bed, she held the glass to her lips. Mother drank
a little.... then a little more.  Before they knew it, she had drunk the
whole glass down to the last drop.
"Mother," the nuns asked with earnest, "please give us some wisdom before
you die."

She raised herself up in bed and whispered, "Don't sell that cow."
