Year’s End
At the end of the tax year Revenue Canada 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 many candles. What do you do with the drippings?”
“Good question,” noted the Rabbi. “we save them up and send them back to the candle makers, and every once in a while 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 matzo(bread) purchases? What do you do with the
crumbs?”
“Ah yes,” replied the Rabbi, realizing the inspector was trying to trap him in an unanswerable question. “We collect them and send back to the manufacturers, and every now and then they send a free box of matzo balls.”
“I see,” replied the auditor, thinking hard about how he could fluster the know-it-all Rabbi.
“Well,, Rabi,” he went on, “What do you do with 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 the to Revenue Canada, and about once a year they send us a complete prick.”
