June 2011 Joke

A Doctor was addressing a large audience in Tampa.

 

“The material we put into our stomachs is enough to have killed most of us sitting here, years ago. Red meat is awful. Soft drinks corrode your stomach lining. Chinese food is loaded with MSG. High fat diets can be disastrous, and none of us realizes the long-term harm caused by the germs in our drinking water.”

“But there is one thing that is the most dangerous of all, and we all have eaten, or will eat it. Would anyone care to guess what food causes the most grief and suffering for years after eating it?”

After several seconds of quiet, a small 75-year-old Jewish man in the front row, raised
his hand and said:

“Vedding Cake?”

One state solution for Israel!

I don’t know how many have seen this, but it is an AWESOME video sent to me by one of my New York congregants.
