Those Funny Animals
------------------
A farmer wants to
know how many sheep he has in his field,
so he asks his border collie to count
them.
The dog runs into the
field,
counts them and runs back to the farmer.
The farmer says,
"How many?"
The dog says, "40."
The farmer is
surprised and says,
"How can there be 40 - I only bought 38!"
The dog says
"I
rounded them up."

Hungarian Dance

David Garrick, the
eighteenth-century English actor
who made his reputation as Richard HI,
won
even greater renown as Hamlet.
Shortly before his first performance in that
role,
Garrick fell and sustained a fractured tibia.
He played the part with a
cast on his leg, and won raves.
While some gossips hinted that the cast was
merely
a device to permit his continuing the limp
that had served him so well
as Richard,
theatergoers by and large accepted the performance,
limp and all.
Garrick went on to play
Hamlet on many other occasions,
and of course did not limp in the part once his
leg had healed.
Other lesser actors, however,
borrowed not only his
interpretation of the role
but the limp that had gone with it.
Although there
is nothing in the play
to suggest that the melancholy Dane ought to limp
,
several generations of English actors hobbled in the part,
and, while the
theatrical world today has forgotten
this curious bit of business,
it survives
in that perennial opening night wish:
"Break a leg!"
It endures, too, in that
show biz bromide:
"You can't make a Hamlet without breaking legs."
A pair of magpies built
their nest in a farmer's attic.
The farmer didn't know it,
but magpies are
notorious thieves,
and this pair were champion crooks.
At first the farmer
didn't mind,
but they stole every bright and shiny object
they could find and put
it in their nest.
The farmer began to get annoyed.
One Sunday, the farmer
was having a party
in the dooryard to celebrate his 25th wedding anniversary.
The table was set with the family's best china and silverware.
One of the
magpies swooped down,
grabbed a silver spoon, and flew off with it,
leaving the
farmer and his family swearing
and grumbling.
That night the farmer
crawled into the attic
to search the magpies' nest for the spoon.
The stench
from dead mice and birds the magpies
had collected for food was
overwhelming.
The magpies awoke,
screeched, and attacked the farmer with beaks and claws,
leaving bleeding cuts
and welts all over his arms.
That nest had become a
huge bird den to him!

A non-Jewish fellow
named Brett walked into a Jewish bakery
and smelled the fine smell of challah
baking
and couldn’t resist and had to have one.
He brought it up to the cash
register.
“Ninety five dollars,”
said the attendant.
“Ninety five dollars!”
Brett replied, flabbergasted.
“How can that be?”
“Five dollars goes for
the challah
and ninety dollars goes to support Israel,”
the attendant replied.
Not wanting to look like
he didn’t support Israel
and desperate to try the challah,
Brett agreed.
The next week Brett was
passing the bakery again
and couldn’t help himself and came in.
He saw a bobka
that looked particularly appealing
and the challah had been so good,
he took it
up to the cash register.
“Two hundred and twenty
five dollars,”
said the attendant.
“Two hundred and twenty
five dollars?!” Brett replied.
“You must be joking!”
“Five dollars for the
bobka
and two hundred and twenty goes to Israel.”
“But I just want the
bobka,” Brett replied.
“If I want to give money to Israel,
that should be my
choice.”
“If you don’t want to
support Israel,
we don’t want your business,
” replied the attendant.
Brett was in a jam,
he
of course did support Israel,
and he really wanted that bobka.
So he paid the
money.
And it was worth it.
The next week Brett was
walking by the bakery again,
and while he should have known better
he walked
in and this time his eyes locked
in on the most delicious looking rugelach he
had ever seen
. He ordered a dozen
and went to the cash register.
“Four hundred and fifty
dollars,”
said the attendant.
“What?”
“Five dollars for the
rugelach
and four hundred and forty five dollars for Israel,”
replied the
attendant.
“Listen to what you are
saying!” said Brett.
“It doesn’t make any sense.
How do you even stay in
business?”
“That’s the way we do
things.
If you don’t like it, you can leave,”
said the attendant.
“I want to talk to the
manager.
This is crazy,” said Brett.
“Have it your way,” said
the attendant.
“Israel, this guy here wants to talk to you!”

The financial situation
had been very bad for several months.
Because he was out of work and destitute,
a young man, out of desperation, decided to rob a bank.
He chose a small
satellite bank facility across
the metropoli-tan area from where he was living.
Late one dark, moonless
night he picked the lock on the rear door
of the bank without difficulty.
He
stealthily crept through the bank to the place
where he knew the safe stood.
Then his troubles began
. While trying to pick the lock on the safe,
he
accidentally set off the burglar alarm,
but his careful preparation paid off.
He had brought along a
furniture dolly.
He quickly loaded the safe onto it,
rolled it out to his van,
stashed it in and barreled out of there before the police arrived.
Not knowing where else
to go, he drove to a friend's house.
He knocked on the door.
“You have to help
me!” the man said.
“I just robbed a bank and I have this safe
but I don't want
to keep it at my place
. Can I store it here for a few days?
I'll give you a share
of the loot.”
“Sure, no problem,” the
friend said.
“You won't tell anybody,
will you?” the man asked.
“Not to worry,” the
friend assured.
“Your safe is secret with me!”
