The hat is being blown down the street, but he is an old man and can't walk fast enough to catch the hat. Across the street a Gentile sees what has happened and rushes over to grab the hat and then returns it to the Rabbi. "I don't think I would have been able to catch my hat," said the Rabbi. "Thank you very much." The Rabbi then places his hand on the man's shoulder and says, "May God bless you."

Finally at the end of the day he returns home to his wife. When she asks him where he's been, he explains how he caught the Rabbi's hat and was blessed by him and then went to the track and started winning on horses that had a hat in their names. "So where's the money?" she asks. "I lost it all in the ninth race. I bet on a horse named Chateau and it lost." "You fool, Chateau is a house, Chapeau is a hat!" "It
doesn't matter," he said, "the winner was some Japanese horse
named Yarmulka." Three Women Bragging About Their Husbands Mrs. Cohen, Mrs. Levy, and Mrs. Lefkovitz are discussing their sons. Mrs. Cohen says, "Now my Sheldon, what a man!

Mrs. Levy says, "That's nice. Let me tell you about my son Jonathan. He is a doctor, a world-famous researcher. He travels across the world to conferences, talks, and lectures. He was nominated for a Nobel prize in Medicine. What a man!" Mrs. Lefkovitz says, "My Hershel, he's an engineer. Now, he makes maybe $35,000 a year, and he's not famous. But his penis is so long, you can line up ten pigeons in a row on it." The ladies sip their tea for a while. Then, Mrs. Cohen says, "Actually, I got a confession to make. Sheldon's an up-and-coming lawyer in Los Angeles, but he doesn't have a mansion or a summer home. He's a bright young man with a good future." Mrs. Levy says: "Well, I got a confession too. Jonathan is a good doctor, and he got his share of scholarships, but a Nobel prizewinner, he isn't." They all look expectantly at Mrs. Lefkovitz. "Well,
all right, I'll tell the truth too. The last bird has to stand on one
leg." Although born to a Catholic family, Chester had always wanted to be Jewish. As a senior in college, he decided to take the plunge and go through the formal conversion process.

you pass." said the Rabbi. Amusing

A gleeful rejoice used when Jewish parents find out their daughter is
going to marry the Jewish surgeon rather than that poor, unemployed goyishe
laborer. Two Hasidic Jews were walking down the street one day. They ran into Abe, an old friend. When they ask how he was doing he said, "I'm doing great. I just hit the lottery for ten million dollars!." Naturally aroused, they ask him what he did with the money. He replied, "I bought the biggest piece of property money could buy right in the heart of Berlin, Germany. On that property, I built a mansion and on my front lawn I put a solid gold life size statue of Adolf Hitler!" His friends are completely shocked and couldn't believe what he had done. They said, "Adolf Hitler, are you crazy?" With that,
he calmly pointed at his inner forearm and says, "Adolf vasn't such
a bad guy... he gave me the vinning numbers! There was a Rabbi whose wife was expecting a baby. The Rabbi went to the congregation and asked for a raise. After much consideration and discussion, they passed a rule that when the Rabbi's family expanded, so would his paycheck. After five or six children, this started to get expensive. The congregation decided to hold a meeting again to discuss the Rabbi's pay situation. You can imagine there was much yelling and bickering. Finally, the Rabbi got up and spoke to the crowd -"Having children is an act of God!" In the back
of the room, a little old man with a full beard stood up and in his frail
voice said... "Point of information - snow and rain are also 'acts
of God', but when we get too much we wear rubbers!" Rabinowitz Has Lunch With Hitler Rabinowitz, hiding with his wife from the Nazis in a secluded Berlin attic, decided to get a breath of fresh air. While out walking he came face to face with Adolph Hitler. The German leader pulled out a gun and pointed to a pile of horse manure in the street. "All right, Jew!" he shouted, "eat that or I'll kill you!" Trembling, Rabinowitz did as he was ordered. Hitler began laughing so hard he dropped the weapon. Rabinowitz snatched it up and said, "Now, you eat the manure or I'll shoot!" The Fuhrer got down on his hands and knees and began eating. While he
was occupied, Rabinowitz sneaked away, ran through an alley, climbed over
a fence, and dashed up the stairs to the attic. He slammed the door shut,
bolted and locked it securely. "Bessie! Bessie!" he shouted
to his wife. "Guess who I had lunch with today!" An old Jewish man on his deathbed whispered, "Sarah, Sarah, where are you, my dear wife?" "Right here at your side, my love." "And my son, Moishe...where is he?" "Right here at your side, papa." "And my daughter, Mitsy...where is she?" "Right here at your side, papa." "And my son, Abraham...where is he?" "Right here at your side, papa." "What,
none of you assholes is minding the store?" Rabbi Levy in a Catholic Hospital Rabbi Levy had to spend time in a Catholic hospital. He became friends with the Sister who was a nurse there. One day, she came into his room and noticed that the crucifix on the wall was missing. She asked him good-naturedly, "Rabbi, what have you done with the crucifix?" "Oh,
sister," chuckled Rabbi Levy, "I just figured one suffering
Jew in this room was enough." A man is driving down a highway in Arizona when a beautiful woman appears out of nowhere right in front of him...completely nude. And with green skin. Stunned, he starts to speak to her. "Excuse me, but you just popped out of thin air. How did you do that?" "Oh," says the woman, "I'm from Andromeda, in what you call outer space." "Andromeda?" says the man, "Wow! Do all the women on Andromeda have green skin like yours?" "Yes," replies the woman, "everyone is green on Andromeda" The man continues to stare and speak. "Excuse me for asking, but I can't help but noticing that you have 12 toes on each foot. Here on Earth we all have five toes on each foot. Do all Andromedans have 12 toes on each foot? "Yes, they do," replies the woman. "And forgive me for saying this, but it's hard not to notice," the man continues, "but you have three breasts. Do all Andromedan women have three breasts? "Yes," replies the woman, "Actually, everyone on Andromeda has three breasts." "Please, may I ask you one more question?" The woman nods. "I also can't help noticing that on each of your hands you have seven fingers and on each finger is a very large diamond. Here on Earth diamonds are very rare and valuable. Do all Andromedan women have large diamonds on their fingers?" "Well," the woman answers, "not the Shiksas."
