Six Jewish gentlemen were once playing poker in their condo's rec room, and one of them bet and lost five hundred dollars on a single hand, and died right there at the table. They fell quiet, and, showing respect for their fallen pal, finished that poker hand standing up.

But who was going to tell his wife, Mimi ?They drew straws, and Reuben, always a loser, picked a short one. They told him to be discreet, gentle, don't make a bad situation any worse. He said, "Gentlemen! I am the most discreet guy around. Leave the task for me."

So he went on over to the apartment, and knocked at the door.

The wife answered, asking him, "What do you want?"

He said, "Mimi, your husband did just lose $500 at cards."

She screamed, "HE - SHOULD - DROP - DEAD!"

"My fine lady," Reuben calmly replied, "... from your lips ... to God's ears."

Back in the 60's, a U.S. Navy ship pulled into a town in Mississippi for shore leave. The Admiral was decidedly surprised to get this request from a wealthy cotton plantation owner:


Dear Admiral,

On Wednesday next, the Nineteenth, it will be my daughter's birthday.

We would like you to send eight of your well-mannered, good officers to a night of polite dance and Southern charm with young ladies at our home.

They should arrive at 8:00 p.m., on the dot.

And, please, don't send Jews.



At 8:00 o'clock on the Wednesday, there did come, dressed in uniform, eight perfectly-mannered ensigns - DARK BLACK. The woman's jaw hit the floor, but she did gather herself together and barely whispered, "There has been a dreadful mistake!"

"No Ma'am," soothed one ensign,
"Admiral Goldberg, he don't make mistakes!"

3rd - Tony Crafter with:
A paranormal researcher was giving a talk in the village hall and asked,

"Out of interest, does anyone here think they've seen a ghost?" About nine hands went up. "Remarkable!" He exclaimed. "OK then, I wonder, has anyone ever spoken to a ghost?" Four hands went up. "Heck!" said the surprised man . "Well, did anyone here ever make love to a ghost?"

One solitary hand shot up. "I did! I did!" cried an old farmer who was standing at the back of the hall.

"Wow! Incredible!" said the lecturer. "You really made love to a ghost! How?"

"A ghost...? Beg your pardon sir," said the farmer, "I'm afraid I misheard. I thought you said a goat!"

=

A union rep, checking on a farmer thought to have been underpaying his employees, was being introduced to the hands.

"This is young Clive," said the farmer, "he drives a hay-cart and gets two hundred dollars a week and a room and board. Clive's colleague Millie, here, keeps house and averages a hundred and sixty-eight dollars a week with a room and board."

"That's fair," said the rep; "OK, anyone else?"

"Yeah, the half-wit. He slogs seventy hours a week for a notional twelve dollars, with room and board."

"Aha!" said the union rep. "I'd like to speak to that man."

"You're talking to him right now," said the farmer.
