JEWISH HUMOR
******************
13 Children
________________________________________________
A man was in the hospital recovering from an operation when a
nun walked into his room. She was there to cheer up the sick and ailing. The man and nun started talking and she asked about his life. He talked about his wife and 13 children.
"My, my," said the nun, "13 children . . . You're a good, proper Catholic family. God is very proud of you!"
"I'm sorry, Sister," he said, "I am not Catholic. I'm Jewish."
"Jewish!?" she replies and immediately gets up to leave.
"Sister, why are you leaving?"
"I didn't realize I was talking to a sex maniac!"

"Of course."
"Please, vat time is it?"

Going to Die
At the conclusion of the physical exam the doctor summoned
his patient into his office with a grave look on his face. "I hate to be the one to break it to you, Fred," he said, "but I'm afraid you have
only six months to live."
"Oh, my gosh," gasped Fred, turning white. When the news had
sunk in, he said, "Listen, Doc, you've known me a long time. Do you have any suggestions as to how I could make the most of my remaining months?"
"Have you ever married?" asked the doctor.
Fred explained that he'd been a bachelor all his life.
"You might think about taking a wife," the doctor proposed. "After all, you'll need someone to look after you during the final illness."
"That's a good point, Doc," mused Fred. "And with only six
months to live I'd better make the most of my time."
"May I make one more suggestion?" asked the doctor. When Fred nodded, he said, "Marry a Jewish girl."
"A Jewish girl, how come?"
"It'll seem longer."

Call the Priest
It was a dark and stormy night, and Mendelson, an old man, knew that the end was near. "Call the priest," he said to his wife, "and tell him to come right away." "The priest? Max, you're delirious. You mean the rabbi!"
"No," said Mendelson, "I mean the priest. Why disturb the rabbi on a night like this?"

Brisket Just Like Bubbe Made It
A young Jewish mother is preparing a Brisket one Friday for
Shabbat dinner Her daughter watches with interest as the mother slices off the ends of the Brisket before placing itin the roasting pan. The young girl asks her mother why she did this.
The mother pauses for a moment and then says, "You know, I'm not sure.
This is the way I always saw my mother make a brisket. Let's call Grandma and ask her."
So, she phones her mother and asks why they always slice the ends off the brisket before roasting.
The Grandmother thinks for a moment and then says, "You know, I'm not sure why, this is the way I always saw MY mother make a brisket."
Now the two women are very curious, so they pay a visit to the great-grandmother in the nursing home.
"You know when we make a brisket," they explain, "we always slice off the ends before roasting. Why is that?"
"I don't know why YOU do it," says the old woman, "but I never had a pan that was large enough!"
