Joke of the Week
: The Internal Revenue Service sent an auditor to a
: synagogue.
: As the auditor reviews all the paperwork, he turns
: to the Rabbi and says, "I
: noticed that you buy a lot of candles."
: "Yes, we do," responded the Rabbi.
: "Well, Rabbi, what do you do with the candle
: drippings?" He asked."A good
: question," noted the rabbi. "We actually save them
: up and when we have
: enough, we send them back to the candle maker and
: every now and then, they
: send us a free box of candles."
: "Oh," replied the auditor somewhat disappointed that
: his unusual question
: actually had a practical answer.
: "Rabbi, what about all these Matzo purchases? What
: do you do with all the
: crumbs from the Matzo?"
: "Ah, yes," replied the Rabbi calmly. "We actually
: collect up all the crumbs
: from the Matzo and when we have enough, we send
: them in a box back to the
: manufacturer; and every now and then they send us a
: box of Matzo balls."
: "Oh," replied the auditor, thinking hard how he
: could fluster the Rabbi.
: "Well, Rabbi," he continued, "what do you do with
: all the foreskins from the
: circumcisions?"
:
: "Yes, here too, we do not waste." The Rabbi
: answered. What we do is save up
: all the foreskins, and when we have enough we
: actually send them to the
: Internal Revenue Service."
:
: "Internal Revenue Service?" questioned the auditor
: in disbelief.
: "Ah, yes," replied the Rabbi, "Internal Revenue
: Service. And about once a
: year, they send us back a little prick like you."
