Funny Stories of Jews Celebrating Christmas

Jewish humour has a tendency to be particularly self indulgent, self
deprecatory, anecdotal and very funny.

Will and Guy have decided to include these examples to balance our
other funny pages, which laugh at individual groups: Sardar,
Irish, Scottish, Welsh, as well as English and American.  We remind our
readers of our pledge not to upset any ethnic group, and hope that these
examples will make you laugh.

Funny Jewish Thoughts On Marriage

Menachem, a Jewish businessman, warned his son, Moshe, against marrying a
non-Jew.

Moshe replied, 'But she's converting to Judaism.'
'It doesn't matter,' the old man said. 'A *shiksa will cause problems.'

Moshe persisted.  After the wedding, Menachem called the son, who was in business with him,
and asked him why he was not at work. 'It's *Shabbos,' Moshe replied.

Menachem was surprised, 'But we always work on Saturday. It's our busiest
day.'
'I won't work anymore on Saturday,' Moshe insisted, 'because my wife
wants us to go to *shul on Shabbos.'

'See,' Menachem retorted, 'I told you marrying a non-Jew would cause
problems.'

Footnotes:
*Shiksa - a pejorative term, used mainly in North America, to describe a
non-Jewish woman
*Shul - synagogue
*Shabbos - Jewish day of

A Jewish Christmas Smile

Admiring the Christmas trees displayed in his neighbour's windows, Peter
asks his father, 'Daddy, can we have a *Hanukkah Tree?'

'What? No, of course not,' says his father.

'Why not?' asks Peter again.

Bewildered, his father replies, 'Because the last time we had dealings
with a lighted bush we spent 40 years in the wilderness.'

* A Hanukkah bush is a bush or, real or simulated, that some American
and Canadian Jewish families display in their homes for the duration of
Hanukkah.  It may, for all intents and purposes, be a Christmas tree [without
any Christian ornaments].

A Jewish Prayer for the New Year

Dear Lord

May we get a clean bill of health from our dentist, our
psychiatrist,
our ophthalmologist, our cardiologist, our gastroenterologist,
our
urologist, our proctologist, our gynaecologist, our podiatrist, our
plumber and the IRS.

May our hair, our teeth, our facelift, our abs, our honey cakes, and our
stocks not fall and may our blood pressure, our triglycerides, our
cholesterol, our white blood count, our weight and our mortgage interest
rates not rise.

May we find a way to travel from anywhere to anywhere in the rush hour
in less than an hour and when we get there, may we find a parking space.

May we all relax about the third millennium of the common era, and
realize that we still have 239 years until the down of the sixth millennium
of the Hebrew calendar by which time the computer will be long since
obsolete
and so will we.

May God give us the strength to get through this presidential campaign
and may some of the promises made be kept. May we believe at least half
of what the candidates propose and may those elected fulfil at least half of
what they promise and may the miracle of reducing taxes and balancing
budgets.

May we be awestruck by God's sense of humour as we realize that a
professional wrestler could have become president of the United States and
that an Orthodox Jew has risen to prominence in American politics while
remaining true to his Jewish roots. It is my belief that God's joyous humour
is the reason he really does not want us to touch our toes while exercising
or he would have put them further up our bodies; and, the reason so many of
us take up jogging is to hear heavy breathing again.

May what we see in the mirror delight us and what others see in us,
delight them. May someone, as well as God, love us enough to forgive our
faults, be blind to our blemishes and tell the world about our virtues.

May the telemarketers wait until after we finish dinner to call us. May
our cheque books and budgets balance and may they include generous amounts
for charity.

May we remember to say "I love you" at least once a day to our spouse,
our child, our parent, all of our significant others but not our boss, our
intern, our nurse, our masseur, our hairdresser or our tennis instructor.

And may the Messiah come this year, and if he does not, may we live as
if he has, in a world at peace, with awareness of God's love in every
sunset,
flower, baby's smile, lover's kiss, and every wonderful
astonishing beat of
our heart. May we smile and laugh throughout the
year.
