watch.'
'But Sam! That's forbidden! You should return it
immediately!'
'What shall I do ?'
'Give it back to the owner.'
'Do you want it '
'No, I said return it to its owner.'
'But he doesn't want it.'
'In that case, keep it.'
Business Partners
Cohen & Levy have been antique dealers across the street from each other for years.
Cohen hates Levy - he thinks he's a gonniff (crook), liar & ignorant, bum
& says so publicly.
Levy thinks the same about Cohen.
One day Levy leaves the shop door open & goes out for a few minutes.
Cohen takes the opportunity to steal a magic, lantern Levy has in the window. He gets it
back to his shop and can't resist rubbing - it. A genie pops out of the
lantern.
"Cohen", says the genie, "because u released me from a millennium of confinement in the lantern, I'll
grant you one wish - anything you want - money, power, fame, anything. But
because the lamp belongs to Levy, whatever it is you get, Levy will get twice as
much."
"You mean," says Cohen, "if I ask
for a million dollars, Levy gets two million?"
"That's right," says the genie, "and
if ask for a beautiful, woman, Levy gets two?"
"All right, genie," says Cohen. "I
know what I want."
"What?" asks the genie.
"I wish I were half dead."

the rest of us?"
Without skipping a beat, Rabbi Cohen
replied, "At your wedding, reception."

buried in Jerusalem.
The loving sons put him in a Jerusalem, Hospital & awaited death.
However, once in Jerusalem he felt better & was full of life soon. He called his sons
& told them: "Take me quickly back to the US."

"Sure.....In a minute."
Chanukah Gelt
It was two days before Chanukah
& Mr. Feldman, despondent, trudged home. "Where will I get $ to buy holiday,
presents?" he asked himself, sadly, thinking of his kin. On the
way, he passed a church, in front of which was a sign:
$100 To Anyone Who Joins This Church
Today!
Here was the solution to his
problem! He went in, joined, & was given the $100. That evening, he told his
family how he got his $. "And here's the $100," he announced
grandly, waving it before them.
"Darling," said his wife, "
remember that coat you promised me three years ago? Well it's on sale at
Macy's."
"How much?"
"Only $50. It's worth at least 85."
Feldman gave it to her.
The son spoke up. "Pop, for a long-
time I've been saving up to buy a ten- speed. I have most of the $.
I need a bit,
more."
"How much?"
"$25."
Feldman handed it over.
"Daddy," said his teen age, daughter,
"next week our school is having the most important, dance of the whole year. If I
don't have a new dress, I'll simply die."
"Don't die Sweetheart. How much is
the dress?"
"$25, Daddy dear."
Feldman handed over the remaining $,
& grinned. "It never fails: the minute we Gentiles have some $, u Jews take
it from us!"

worker, and they speak for several, minutes.
After the mayor and his wife
continue on, he turns to his wife to ask how she knows him.
"Oh," she said. "We dated in
high school. I even considered marrying him."
The husband began to laugh. "U don't
realize how lucky u are. If I hadn't come along, today you would be the wife of
a construction worker!"
The wife replied without hesitation,
"Not really. If I had married him, he'd now be a mayor!"

Tickets,
Anyone?
Mr. and Mrs. Greenberg go out to see
My Fair Lady, on stage. This is the most sold out show of the year, & scalpers
are retiring on this one.
Somehow, they've lucked into front
row seats. But they notice that in the row behind them, there's an empty seat.
When intermission comes and no one has sat in that seat, Mrs. Greenberg turns to
the woman sitting next to it and asks, "Pardon me, but this is such a sold out
show, and in such demand. We were wondering why that seat is empty."
The woman says, "That's my late
husband's seat."
Mrs. Greenberg is horrified and
apologizes for being so insensitive.
But a few- minutes, later, she turns
around again.
"Without meaning to be rude or
anything, this is an incredibly hard show to get into. Surely you must have a
friend or a relative who would have wanted to come and see the show?"
The woman nods, but explains,
"They're all at my late, husband's funeral."
From The Great
Beyond
For months, Mrs. Pitzel had been
nagging her husband to go with her to the séance parlor of Madame Freda. "Milty,
she's a real, Gypsy, & she brings the voices of the dead from the other, world.
We all talk to them!
Last week I talked with my mother, may she rest in peace.
Milty, for $20 u can talk to your zayde (grandpa) who you miss so much!"
Milton Pitzel could not resist her
appeal. At the very next, séance at Madam Freda's Séance Parlor, Milty sat under
the colored light at the green table, holding hands with the person on each
side. All were humming, "Oooom, oooom, tonka tooom."
Madame Freda, her eyes lost in
trance, was making passes over a crystal ball. "My medium...
Vashtri," she
called. "Come in. Who is that with you? Who? Mr. Pitzel" Milton Pitzel's zayde?"
Milty swallowed the lump in his
throad and called, "Grampa? Zayde?"
"Ah, Milteleh?" a thin, voice,
quavered.
"Yes! Yes!" cried Milty. "This is
your Milty! Zayde, are you happy in the other world?"
"Milteleh, I'm in bliss. With your
bubbie together, we laugh, we sing & gaze upon the shining, face of the Lord!"
A dozen more questions did Milty ask
of his zayde, and each one was zayde answer,
until "So now, Milteleh, I
have to go. The angels are calling. Just one more question I can answer. Ask.
Ask."
"Zayde," sighed Milty, "so when did
you learn English?"

The Jewish
Olympics
After reading through the list of
this year's Olympic events, it was found that the Olympic Committee has made
some significant changes. Some of the less-publicized events of particular
interest to the world's Jewish communities, that you may have missed, may be the
following: Decathlon: Commonly referred to as the world's greatest athlete, this
year's decathlete is actually a minyan of ten daveners. Each member of the group
will begin davening with ten volumes of Mishnah on his back. Every minute,
another volume will be added until a team member can no longer angle the body
enough for a complete daven. While yeshiva buchers in Jerusalem are favored to
win this event, other teams have promised not to bow down to the opposition -
which could be a problem for this particular event.
Oyga Vault: A sound-enhanced Pole
Vault competition, the vaulter must clear the bar then yell "Oy" upon hitting
the foam pad below. Any heights cleared without an "Oy" will be considered a
fault. Points will be added for more enthusiastic exclamations of "Oy," such as
"Oy vay iz mir!", "Oy, I've just landed on my shana punim!" or, the winner in
the Olympic trials', "Oy, such tsuris this is causing me!"
Synchronized Swimming: Taking place
in an Olympic sized mikvah, this event is sure to make a splash. But what do
these young ladies do once their act has finished?
Synchronized Tanning: Following the
Synchronized Swimming portion, swimmers will have ten minutes to sunbathe. Their
routine must include at least two rollovers as well as application of sunscreen
to the ears and nose. An SPF of 15 is the required minimum. Judges will award
additional points to those able to tan with a higher SPF number. Points will be
deducted for burns, blotches, and bikinis.
Team Handball: The goal here is
simple: to create the ideal matzah ball. Each team will cook a two liter bowl of
matzah ball soup, from scratch. The three winning batches will be fed to the
athletes recovering in the infirmary. The toughest matzah balls will be used in
the shot put competition.
Triathlon: This year's Triathlon
will involve one pound of shnitzel and a serving of tsimmes. The athlete must
cook the shnitzel and tsimmes (first part), say a bruchah before eating this
kosher meal (second part), and then run a marathon (third part). If the
contender forgets to say the bruchah, he/she will be disqualified, but will
still be required to run the marathon.
In addition to the aforementioned
events, this year's Games will feature some experimental, non-medal competition:
Bagel Toss: A kosher version of
horseshoes, the winner is he/she that first lands a bagel on each of the seven
branches of the chanukiah.
Balance Beam: The accountant or
bookkeeper that balances my mother's checkbook in the shortest amount of time
will be declared winner.
Challah Chap: How long does it take
you to remove all the chometz from your house before Pesach? In this
competition, each participant must rid a miniature shul of all of its challot,
and replace them with matzot.
Dream Team: This year's Dream Team
will not consist of the USA's highly favored men's basketball team, but rather,
an overpriced team of psychoanalysts that will have three, one hour office
visits to analyze and interpret the dreams of this year's Olympic hopefuls.
Moyl Marathon: Each certified moyl
must run a marathon and perform a bris at each kilometer mark. This is the only
event that allows alcohol - for the babies of course.
Naches Shlep: Designed for bubbies
and zaydehs, the proud grandparents will have two minutes to boast about their
einiklach.
Rings: No longer part of men's
gymnastics, this event now caters to newlyweds eager to show off the diamond
rocks on their fourth fingers. The diamonds will be judged based on the "three
c's," color, clarity, and cut. Contestants will be judged based on the "three
s's," smile, sophistication, and simchas.
The Dating Game
It seems Yankel was pushing 25 and
he'd never been out on a date. His Rosh Yeshiva calls him into the office one
day and says, "Yankel! 18 to the Chuppah! What's going to be already?" Yankel
blushes and explains to his Rebbe that he grew up in a house full of brothers,
and he's never even spoken to a girl anywhere near his age. He doesn't know what
to say to girls. Besides, it would interrupt his learning. The Rosh Yeshiva puts
a fatherly arm around him and tells him "Don't worry about your learning, this
is a Chiyuv with a capital ches. And as for what to say, you can talk about her
family, you can talk about what she likes, and if all else fails you can talk
philosophy."
Yankel leaves the Rosh Yeshiva
repeating under his breath, "Family, likes, philosophy. Family, likes,
philosophy. Family, likes, philosophy." Finally, the day arrives and he goes out
on his first shidduch.
The young people sit down in the
hotel lobby and look at one another uncomfortably. Yankel realizes that he's
going to have to say something, and the first thing on the Rosh Yeshiva's list
is family, so he blurts out, "Do you have any brothers?" "No." replies the girl,
and silence reigns. Yankel thinks hard, and then comes up with, "Do you like
baseball?" "No." is the immediate reply. Now Yankel is really at a loss. Ah yes!
Philosophy! So Yankel leans forward, and very intently, in his best talmudic
tones, asks "If you had a brother, would he like baseball?"
Jewish Dog
A man walks into shul with a dog.
The shammas comes up to him and says, "Pardon me, this is a House of Worship,
you can't bring your dog in here." "What do you mean," says the man, "this is a
Jewish dog. Look." And the shammas looks carefully and sees that in the same way
that a St. Bernard carries a brandy barrel round its neck this dog has a tallis
bag round its neck.
"Rover," says the man, "daven!".
"Woof!" says the dog, stands on his
hind legs, opens the tallis bag, takes out a kipa and puts it on his head.
"Woof!" says the dog, stands on his
hind legs, opens the tallis bag, takes out a tallis and puts it round his neck.
"Woof!" says the dog, stands on his
hind legs, opens the tallis bag, takes out a siddur and starts to daven.
"That's fantastic," says the
shammas, "absolutely amazing, incredible! You should take him to Hollywood, get
him on television, get him in the movies, he could make a million dollars!!"
"You speak to him," says the man,
"he wants to be a dentist."
The Big Squeeze
The local bar was so sure that its
bartender was the strongest man around that they offered a standing $1000 bet.
The bartender would squeeze a lemon
until all the juice ran into a glass, and hand the lemon to a patron. Anyone who
could squeeze one more drop of juice out would win the money. Many people had
tried over time (weight-lifters, longshoremen, etc.) but nobody could do it.
One day this scrawny little Jewish
fellow came into the bar, wearing thick glasses and a polyester suit, and said
in a tiny squeaky voice "I'd like to try the bet" After the laughter had died
down, the bartender said OK, grabbed a lemon, and squeezed away. Then he handed
the wrinkled remains of the rind to the Jewish fellow.
But the crowd's laughter turned to
total silence as the man clenched his fist around the lemon and six drops fell
into the glass. As the crowd cheered, the bartender paid the $1000, and asked
the little Jewish man "What do you do for a living? Are you a lumberjack, a
weight-lifter, or what?"
The Jewish fellow replied: "I work
for the Jewish National Fund."
All In A Day's Work
Two beggars were sitting next to
each other. One holds a sign saying "Please help a poor war veteran", and the
other holds a sign saying "Please help a poor Jew".
People pass by and even those who
didn't intend to give money to any of them, give to the first to upset the Jew.
One good man passes by, gives money equally to both, and then says to the Jew:
"Why don't you change your sign? Don't you understand that nobody will give you
any money?" and walks away.
As he goes, the Jews turns to the
other one and says: "Haim, he would teach US business..."
May I Take Your Order?
Q - What did the waiter ask the
group of dining Jewish mothers?
A - "Is ANYTHING all right?"
Last Wish
Terrorists burst into a shul
(synagogue) just before Yom Kippur, demanding 20 million dollars and a jet plane
in ransom.
The Governor, being a tough man,
said no. The terrorists then announced that they would kill, in quick
succession, 3 people. They chose the Rabbi, the Cantor, and the Gabbai (sexton).
They told the Rabbi: "We're going to
kill you first. Any last requests?"
"Only one," said the Rabbi. "All my
life I have wanted to give the perfect sermon. This time, for Yom Kippur, I have
worked on my sermon for many months. It's really great. Before you kill me, I'd
like to give my sermon".
"No problem" said the chief
terrorist. "Give your sermon and then we'll kill you".
He turned to the Cantor: "You'll be
second to die. Any last requests?"
"Only one" said the Cantor. "All my
life I have wanted to sing the perfect Kol Nidre. This year, I have practiced
and practiced and have polished it to perfection. Before you kill me, I would
like to sing it once".
"No problem", said the terrorist. He
then turned to the Gabbai. "You'll be third. Any last wish?"
"Only one", said the Gabbai. "Please
kill me first."
Mother and; Daughter
One day a Jewish Mother and her
8-year-old daughter were walking along the beach, just at the water's edge.
Suddenly, a GIGANTIC wave flashed up on the beach, sweeping the little girl out
to sea.
"Oh, G-d," lamented the mother,
turning her face toward heaven and shaking her fist. "This was my ONLY baby. I
can't have more children. She is the love and joy of my life. I have cherished
every day that she's been with me. Give her back to me, and I'll go to the
synagogue every day for the rest of my life!!!!"
Suddenly, another GIGANTIC wave
flashed up and deposited the girl back on the sand.
The mother looked up to heaven and
said, "So where's the HAT?"
The Three Hasidim
Three Hasidim are each talking about
who has the greatest Rebbe:
The first one says: "Our Rebbe is so
great, we were walking home from schul on Shabbos and it was very hot. We said
Rebbe it is so hot what can we do?" The Rebbe stopped and he prayed. And in
front of the Rebbe and behind the Rebbe there was heat. And to the right of the
Rebbe and to the let of the Rebbe there was heat. And in the area around the
Rebbe it became cool and fresh and they all walked home.
The second one says: "That's
nothing! We were walking home from schul one Shabbos and it started to rain
really hard. And we said Rebbe, we're going to get sick what should we do?" The
Rebbe stopped and he prayed. And in front of the Rebbe and behind the Rebbe
there was rain. And to the right of the Rebbe and to the left of the Rebbe there
was rain. But in the area around the Rebbe, there was no rain, and they all
walked home.
The third said, "Is that all??" We
were walking home from schul on Shabbos, and we spotted a large bag filled with
gold coins that was lying in the street. And we said Rebbe, so much money, we
could do so much work for the Hasidim, what should we do??" And the Rebbe
stopped and he prayed. And in front of the Rebbe and behind the Rebbe and to the
right of the Rebbe and to the left of the Rebbe there was Shabbos.....
A Jew In Paris
A little Jewish lady from the U.S.,
touristing in Paris, enters a chic confectionery boutique, and says, "Vill you
plizz give me a boxl ize-krim, if you dun't mind?"
The clerk behind the counter
straightens up and replies, "Madame, en Chez Marie, ve do not say 'ize-krim', ve
say 'glace'."
"Aw K", says Mrs. Ginsberg, "I'll
hev a boxl glace. End if you'll plizz, hendle me also a peckidge cookiss end a

"Dot's fine", replies Mrs. Ginsberg,
"put in de peckidge pastilles end also a boxl bunbuns. End if you'll dunt mind,

At that, the clerk draws herself up
to her full five feet of height, looks Mrs. Ginsberg straight in the eye, and
replies, "Madame, en Chez Marie, ve do not schlep pekelach!"
Four Rabbis
So it seems that these four Rabbis
had a series of theological arguments, and three were always in accord against
the fourth. One day, the odd Rabbi out, after the usual "3 to 1, majority rules"
statement that signified that he had lost again, decided to appeal to a higher
authority. "Oh, G-d!" he cried. "I know in my heart that I am right and they are
wrong! Please give me a sign to prove it to them!"
It was a beautiful, sunny day. As
soon as the Rabbi finished his prayer, a storm cloud moved across the sky above
the four. It rumbled once and dissolved. "A sign from G-d! See, I'm right, I
knew it!" But the other three disagreed, pointing out that storm clouds form on
hot days.
So the Rabbi prayed again: "Oh, G-d,
I need a bigger sign to show that I am right and they are wrong. So please, G-d,
a bigger sign!" This time four storm clouds appeared, rushed toward each other
to form one big cloud, and a bolt of lightning slammed into a tree on a nearby
hill."I told you I was right!" cried the Rabbi, but his friends insisted that
nothing had happened that could not be explained by natural causes.
The Rabbi is getting ready to ask
for a "very big" sign, but just as he says "Oh G-d..." the sky turns pitch
black, the earth shakes, and a deep, booming voice intones, "HEEEEEEEE'S
RIIIIIIIGHT!"
The Rabbi puts his hands on his
hips, turns to the other three, and says, "Well?"
"So," shrugged one of the other
Rabbis, "now it's 3 to 2!"
Jewish Joke
A man started to tell a joke at a
party: "Two, old, Jews were on their way..."
Suddenly he was interrupted by a
sensitive guest.
"Why do so many jokes begin with
Jews?"
"Oh, I'm sorry," apologized the
story teller, "I'll start again.
Two old Chinese men were on their
way to the Synagogue to see the Rabbi..."

Flying High
An elderly Jewish couple are sitting
together on an airplane flying to the Far East. Over the public address system,
the Captain announces:
"Ladies and Gentlemen, I am afraid I
have some very bad news. Our engines have ceased functioning, and this plane
will be going down momentarily. Luckily, I see an island below us that should be
able to accommodate our landing. Unluckily, this Island appears to be uncharted;
I am unable to find it on our maps. So the odds are that we will never be
rescued and will have to live on the island for a very long time, if not for the
rest of our lives."
The husband turns to his wife and
asks,
"Esther, did we turn off the stove?"
and Esther replies, "of course."
"Esther, are our life insurance
policies paid up?" "Of course."
"Esther, did we pay our UJA pledge?"
"Oh my G-d, I forgot to send the check!!"
"Thank Heaven! They'll find us for
sure!!"
Diamonds Are Forever:
Sally is flying out to meet her
boyfriend. She falls asleep on the plane and dreams about this gorgeous diamond
ring he'll give her. When she opens her eyes, she spots an even bigger diamond
on the finger of Mrs. Goldstein, a matron sitting next to her. This is the
mother of all diamonds, it is enormous, flawless, glittering...
'My, that's some diamond you've got
there', Sally says. 'I've never seen anything like it.'
Mrs. Goldstein sighs. 'I know, my
child. This is no ordinary diamond. It's the famous Goldstein diamond. But it
comes with a terrible curse.'
'It does?' Sally moves to the edge
of the seat. 'So what's the curse?'
Mrs. Goldstein sighs again. 'Mister
Goldstein.'

Charity Begins At
Home
A Priest, a minister and a Rabbi
were sitting around wondering what to do with all the money they collected from
charity.
The priest said: "I got an idea.
Let's draw a circle, throw all the money up in the air, and what falls in the
circle we give to G-d.
The Minister said: "I got a better
idea. Let's draw a circle, throw all the money up in the air, and what falls
outside the circle we give to G-d.
The Rabbi said: "I got even a better
idea. Let's draw a circle, throw all the money up in the air, and let G-d take
what he wants, and what falls to the ground we keep!

At The Bar
A Jewish man walks into a bar and
sits down. He has a few drinks, then he sees a Chinese man and punches him in
the face. "Ouch!" the Chinese man says. "What was that for?" "That was for Pearl
Harbor," the Jewish man says. "But I'm Chinese!" "Chinese, Japanese, what's the
difference?" And the Jewish man sits back down. Then, the Chinese man walks up
to the Jewish man and punches him in the face. "Ouch!" the Jewish man says. "What was that for?" "That was for
the Titanic," the chinese man says.
"But that was an iceberg!"
"Ice berg, Goldberg, what's the

The Jewish
Lawyer
Bernie an old Jewish codger, was
critically ill. Feeling that death was near, he called his lawyer.
"I want to become a lawyer. How much
is it for that express degree you told me about?"
"It's $50,000", the lawyer said,
"But why? You'll be dead soon, why do you want to become a lawyer?"
"That's my business!" answers
Bernie, "Get me the course!"
Four days later, Bernie got his law
degree. His lawyer was at his bedside making sure his bill would be paid.
Suddenly the old man was racked with
fits of coughing, and it was clear that this would be the end. Still curious,
the lawyer leaned over and said, "Please Bernie, before it's too late, tell me
why you wanted to get a law degree so badly before you died?"
In a faint whisper, as he breathed
his last, Bernie said: "One less Jewish lawyer".
