KIDDIE KORN KORNER ... a
wife invited some people to dinner. At
the table, she turned to their 6-year-
old daughter and said, "Would you
like to say the blessing?"
"I wouldn't know what to say," the
girl replied.
"Just say what you hear mommy
say," the wife answered.
The daughter bowed her head and
said, "Lord, why on earth did I invite
all these people to dinner?"
OLDIE BUT GOODIE Dept. ...
Just before a Jewish holiday, a team of
terrorists invades the synagogue and
takes the rabbi, the cantor and the
synagogue president hostage.
Hours later, the governor stands
tough, he won't give them a million
dollars, nor a getaway car nor a jumbo
jet.
The terrorists gather the three
hostages in a corner and inform them
that things look bad and they're going
to shoot them. Nevertheless, to show
that they're not really a bad bunch,
they'll give each hostage one wish.
"Please," says the rabbi, "for the last
two months I've been working on my
holiday sermon. What a waste to die
now without having carried it before
an audience. I'll go happily if you let
me recite my sermon. It's an hour and
ninety minutes long, tops."
The terrorists promise to do it.
"Please," says the cantor, "after 50
years, I've finally gotten a wonderful
prayer just right. What a waste to
die and not sing it to an audience.
It's only 45 minutes long."
The terrorists promise to grant the
cantor his wish, too, and they turn.to
the synagogue president.
"Please," says the president with
tears in his eyes. "Shoot me first!"
