Taking a single sheet of paper from an envelope he found written on it only one word: “shmuck.” At the next Friday night service, the Rabbi announced, “I have known many people who have written letters and forgot to sign their names, but this week I received a letter from someone who signed his name…and forgot to write a letter.”
6. Three Jewish women get together for lunch. As they are being seated in the restaurant, one takes a deep breath and gives a long, slow “oy.” The second takes a deep breath as well and lets out a long, slow “oy.” The third takes a deep breath and says impatiently, “Girls, I thought we agreed that we weren’t going to talk about our children.”

THE PARKING SPACE
Moishe is driving in NYC .
He’s late for a meeting, he’s looking for a parking place, and can’t find one.
In desperation, he turns towards heaven and says:
“Lord, if you find me a parking place, I promise that I’ll follow all of your commandments and live my life as an exemplary Jew. ”
Miraculously, a place opens up just in front of him.
He turns his face up to heaven and says,
“Never mind, I just found one!”
