asked Dave ... "Never mind, just
slice," she said ... So Dave put a
corned beef brisket on the machine
and started slicing .. After a few min-
utes, she said "Stop!" ... Dave took the
meat and put it on the scale ... "That's
not what I want," said the lady ...
"You told me to stop," said Dave ...
"Yes," she said, "from there I want
four slices."
Many may not recall the name Dave
Raben ... but they will one of his slo-
gans, coined when asked if his roasted
tongue was fresh ... "Our Tongue
Speaks For Itself."
From Cynthia "Cindi" Brody ...
"Regarding Sonia Goldberg asking
why there isn't an Oak Park High
reunion for the 1975 class. We heard
that a lot of people were interested,
but after sending out the invitations,
by the beginning of February we had
only a small response. We thought
we'd have to cancel. However, several
people who live out of town had
already decided to make a weekend
visit. So we are going ahead with the
party. At this point we think anywhere
from 50-75 people may be coming,
but there could be a last minute rush.
"It will be Saturday, April 28, 7
p.m., at Agora Parthenon, Grand
River east of Novi Road. People can
send $60 per person by April 18 to
Marci Agauas, 1680 High Pointe
Drive, Walled Lake, MI 48390. For

OLDIE BUT GOODIE ... From
CPA Alan Borsen, partner at Nessel,
Smith, Leff & Borsen in Farmington
Hills ... The owner of a small deli-
catessen was being questioned by an
Internal Revenue agent about his tax
return ... He had reported a net profit
of $80,000 for the year.
"Why don't you people leave me
alone?" the deli owner said. "I work
like a dog, everyone in my family
helps out, the place is closed three
days a year. And you want to know
how I made $80,000?"
"It's not your income that bothers
us," the agent said. "It's these travel
deductions. You listed six trips to
Florida for you and your wife."
"Oh, that," the owner said smiling.
"It's a legitimate business expense. We
also deliver."
KORN KORNER ... From Seymour
Schwartz ... A courtroom with the dis-
trict judge seated on the bench and the
defendant standing before him:
Judge: "You look familiar. Have you
ever been up before me?"
Defendant: "I don't know. What
time do you get up?" ❑
