If not, you might want to check out Is- raelisms, a new Web site that bills itself as "Israel's one and only humor `zine." "Israelisms: The Lighter Side of an Intense Country" is a rela- tively new Internet venture — rough around the edges, not ex- actly encyclopedic, but a tanta- lizing glimpse of the snide, snap- pish Israeli sense of humor. The opening screen offers sev- eral easy-to-follow choices, in- cluding a page of jokes sent in by visitors and a photo gallery. There's also a section labeled "Charley's Notebook." A recent edition: the humorous views of an Israeli born in America who wonders, if Israel is a Far East- ern nation, "Why can't I get a de- cent egg roll anywhere?" Or you can click on CNN for a heavy-handed parody of a CNN newscast on the Middle East. There's also a form for sub- mitting your own jokes or mak- ing comments and suggestions. Check it out at: http://is- raelisms.simplenet. comma We take pride in providing the dignity, sanctity and simplicity of Jewish Funeral services and complete personal and professional care at a reasonable cost.
