What a Dog
Posted by: root <root@...>
congregation, Bernie, walk in with a St. Bernard dog. The Rabbi,
horrified, asked the Cantor to continue the service and went to talk to
Bernie.
Rabbi: "What are doing here with a dog?"
Bernie: "The dog came here to pray."
"Oh, come on." says the Rabbi.
"YES!" says Bernie.
Rabbi: "I don't believe you. You are just fooling around; that's not a
proper thing to do in temple."
Bernie: "Its true..!"
"Ok", says the Rabbi (thinking he would call Bernie's bluff), "then show me
what the dog can do."
"OK" says Bernie nodding to the dog. The dog proceeds to open up the barrel
under his neck and removes a yarmulke, a tallis (puts them on his head) and
prayer book and actually starts saying prayers in Hebrew! The Rabbi is so
shocked he listens for a full 15 minutes.
When the Rabbi regains his composure, he is so impressed with the quality of
the praying he says to Bernie. "Do you think your dog would consider going
to rabbinical school????"
Bernie, throwing up his hands in disgust says, "YOU TALK TO HIM!
He wants to be a doctor!"

ID
==
My friend Bev and her husband were reshingling their roof.
As soon as they started, they realized they needed more
supplies, so Bev grabbed the checkbook, jumped into her
car, and drove the 45 miles to the nearest lumberyard.
After gathering the items she needed, Bev went up to the
cashier and wrote a check. "I really need to see a photo
ID." the clerk said.
"I don't have one on me," Bev replied.
The cashier called over the manager who examined the check.
Then the manager looked up and asked Bev, "Who is the Avon
lady in your town?"
Puzzled, Bev responded, "Maxine Thompson."
"I think you can take her check," the smiling manager said
to the cashier. "Maxine is my grandmother."
