Default Some more Jewish insights ...

To my Jewish friends, celebrate and enjoy Rosh Hashanah. I'm told that you will relate to the following:

THINGS YOU DIDN'T LEARN IN HEBREW SCHOOL


1. The High Holidays have absolutely nothing to do with marijuana.

2. Where there's smoke, there may be salmon.

3. No meal is complete without leftovers.

4. According to Jewish dietary law, pork and shellfish may be eaten only in Chinese restaurants.

5. A shmata is a dress that your husband's ex is wearing.

6. You need ten men for a minion, but only four in polyester pants and white shoes for pinochle.

7. One mitzvah can change the world; two will just make you tired.

8. After the destruction of the Second Temple , God created Neiman-Marcus

9. Anything worth saying is worth repeating a thousand times.

10. Never take a front row seat at a Bris.

11. Next year in Jerusalem . The year after that, how about a nice cruise?

12. Never leave a restaurant empty handed.

13. Spring ahead, fall back, winters in Boca.

14. WASP's leave and never say good bye; Jews say good bye and never leave.

15. Always whisper the names of diseases.

16. If it tastes good, it's probably not kosher.

17. The important Jewish holidays are the ones on which alternate side of the street parking is suspended.

18. Without Jewish mothers, who would need therapy?

19. If you have to ask the price, you can't afford it. But, if you can afford it, make sure to tell everybody what you paid.

20. Laugh now, but one day you'll be driving a Lexus and eating dinner at 4:00 PM in Florida.

Default A blessed new year to you!

Tkret,

Just loved the Jewish insights! Sure could relate, they all applied to me relatives, but certainly not me!

OH NO! Is it that time of year again? I have to attone for my sins again?
This rolled around faster then my yearly gynacologist visit!

Thankyou so much for the well wishes. So kind of you to remember.

The only thing I know in Gaelic is: Glaoigh na gardaí/póilíní! Cuir fios ar na gardaí/póilíní!
