Sarcastic and Charming
At the end of the tax year, the Tax Office sent an inspector to audit the books of a synagogue. While he was checking the books he turned to the Rabbi and said,... "I notice you buy a lot of candles. What do you do with the candle drippings?"
"Good question," noted the Rabbi. "We save them up and send them back to the candle makers, and every now and then they send us a free box of candles."
"Oh," replied the auditor, somewhat disappointed that his unusual question had a practical answer.
But on he went, in his obnoxious way. "What about all these biscuit purchases. What do you do with the crumbs?"
"Ah, yes," replied the Rabbi, realizing that the inspector was trying to trap him with an unanswerable question. "We collect them and send them back to the manufacturers, and every now and then they send a free box of holy biscuits."
"I see," replied the auditor, thinking hard about how he could fluster the know-it-all Rabbi.
"Well, Rabbi," he went on, "what do you do with all the leftover foreskins from the circumcisions you perform?"
"Here, too, we do not waste," answered the Rabbi. "What we do is save up all the foreskins and send them to the Tax Office, and about once a year they send us a complete dick."

I saw and really good documentary last night on The Passionate Eye (CBC) on The Rise Of ISIS.
I feel much more informed now and understand why we now have ISIS. Part of the reason was due to the last Minister of Iraq, he pushed out all the Sunnis and slaughtered many of them. The other reason we have ISIS is thanks to OBAMA!! He thought he knew it all and made some bad decisions!

Only could view a one minute clip on that show. How do you view the whole thing or maybe we can't here.

I think because it is still new show special on CBC Passionate Eye, but it will be on TV again on 15 November. After that it should be released on internet.
