A female BBC journalist heard about a very old Jewish man who had been going to the Western Wall to pray, twice a day, every day, for a long, long time. So she went to check it out. She got to the Western Wall and there he was, walking slowly up to the holy site. She watched him pray and after about 45 minutes, when he turned to leave, using a cane and moving very slowly, she approached him for an interview.

"Pardon me, sir, I'm Rebecca Smith from the BBC. What's your name?
"Morris Feinberg," he replied.
"Sir, how long have you been coming to the Western Wall and praying?"
"About 60 years."
"60 years! That's amazing! What do you pray for?"
"I pray for peace between the Christians, Jews and the Muslims."
"I pray for all the wars and all the hatred to stop."
"I pray for all our children to grow up safely as responsible adults, and to love their fellow man."
"How do you feel after doing this for 60 years?"
"Like I'm talking to a *###*** brick wall." :shock:

This wasn't one of your jokes, but it is funny as hell.

There's an elderly Jewish man who takes a constitutional every morning. Part of his walk takes him past a church, so the parish priest has gotten used to seeing him on his rounds. And they usually say hello or even exchange a few pleasantries most mornings.

One morning, as the man is prepared to cross the street by the church, a car blows through a stop sign and nearly hits him. Still, he's startled, stumbles around a bit. And to the amazement of the priest, as he rushes over to check on his neighbor, the man appears to cross himself; up, down, left, right.

"Hymie! I'm glad you're all right, but... did you just make the Sign of the Cross and thank Jesus over your escape from disaster?"

Hymie chuckles and replies "No Father, I was checking."

"Checking? I don't understand"

"You know! Checking! Spectacles, testicles, wallet, cigars!"
