Abe was making out his Chanukah list...
"Honey," he says to his wife, "How do you spell DVD?"
One December, when I was assistant manager of a
children's bookstore, we set up a special rack of
small holiday books.
Looking at a few of the Chanukah books on display, a
customer remarked to the counter clerk how well priced
they were.
"Yes," the clerk agreed. "And they make great stocking
stuffers too!"
Question: 'What is it that Jews do on each of the eight nights of Hanukkah?'
Answer:
1st night - argue over which side of the menorah do we light the candles
2nd night - cut knuckle whicle grating potato for latkes
3rd night - lose dreidel under fridge
4th night - spend hour getting wax out of menorah holes
5th night - lose track of which night you're on
6th night - get latke grease on good shirt
7th night - fish chocolate coin out of dog's mouth
8th night - be short one candle, and muddle what to do...
"If I live, I'll see you Monday, if not, Tuesday."
The rest of the holidays can't hold a candle to
Chanukah.
If everyone could properly pronounce the throat
clearing sound of the
first syallable in Chanukah, coughdrops would be a
thing of the past?
How do you properly spell Chanukah? Let me count the
ways...Channukah,
Hannukah, Chanukah, etc.
Is it true that in Israel the washing machines say
"Dreidel cycle"
instead of "spin?"
Why did the mother stop her daughter from playing
dreidel? For more Humor, continue to page two from the December 2007 Edition of the Jewish Magazine for more humor see our Humor Archives
