Two men, a Jew and a gentile,
were marooned on a desert
island. The gentile immediately
got to work, dragging rocks
to spell out “SOS” in huge
letters on the beach, gathering
driftwood to build a bonfire and
thinking about ways to build a
boat.
The Jew, however, merely sat
on the beach and waited.
“What’s the matter with you?”
the gentile exclaimed. “Don’t
you want to be rescued?”
The Jew said calmly, “Look, I
live in a city with a big Jewish
Federation. Last year, I donated
a million dollars to them. The
year before, I donated a million
dollars to them. This year,
wherever I am, they’ll find me!”
