Don't get excited, we understand. Just skip over "For Openers," and pick it up late Saturday night.

But, don't let us influence you nega- tively. Or, when you come home for that "nap," "For Openers" will be here. Anyway, read on ... MARTY WEISS Special to The Jewish News An elderly Jew saw an ad in a maga- zine that said, "Lumberjacks needed in the Canadian North Woods." He flew up and reported for a job. The 6-foot-3 foreman looked down at the 5-foot-2 Jew and explained that they cut trees with axes and it takes brawn, which obviously he didn't have. The Jew said, "Just give me a test." So they hand him an ax and directed him to go chop down a tree. The Jew, with four strokes — zip, zap, zoop, shlip — cut down the tree. The foreman complimented him, but explained that he was being kind, because that wasn't the type of tree they really cut down, it was the type they plant. Then he said, pointing to a monster tree, "Those are the kind we cut down." The Jew went over to the big tree and with 10 strokes — zip, zap, shlipp, flop, barn, boom, crack, crunch, bim — he cut down the tree. With that the foreman said, "You're hired, but where did you get the expe- rience?" The Jew said, "In the Sahara Forest." The foreman said, "You mean the Sahara Desert, don't you?" And the Jew said, "Sure, now!"
