Did you hear about the Jewish Mother cash machine? When you take out some money, it says to you “Nu, what did you do with the last £50 I gave you?” Did you hear about the Jewish family who kept such a kosher home that they had two smoke detectors in their kitchen? From Israel comes the story of a guide who was showing some visitors around a small local museum.
“That fossil in the glass case over there is two million and nine years old” he told them.
“How can you date it so precisely?” someone asked admiringly.
“That’s easy,” said the guide. “I’ve been working here nine years and it was two million years old when I came.” WHEN GOD MADE MAN, SHE WAS ONLY JOKING A rabbi took a job at a Duracell factory. His job is to stand on the production line and as the batteries go by, say, “I wish you long life”.
