Ella goes to the post office to buy stamps (she was hoping for funny stamps) for her Chanukah cards and she says to the cashier, “Can I have 50 Chanukah stamps?”

The cashier asks, “What denomination?”

“Oy vey, has it come to this?” Ella asks. “OK, give me three Orthodox, ten Conservative, and twenty Reform.”

Happy Chanukah!

Great. It sounds just like a “Gracie Allen” joke; though Gracie was a actually Catholic woman married to a Jewish man. Gracie’s first role on the radio was with Eddie Cantor; another Jewish man. I’m sure her time in Vaudeville gave her a lot of “Jewish humor” experience as well and Vaudeville carried forward a lot of Irish Catholic humor of the day as well.

I’m passing your nice joke on to my friends off of FR.

Happy carb coma! ;)

I meant to include in my previous post (but I got distracted by the image)...

Every Chanukah, the Ohr Rishon in the United States appears from the summit of Har haMidbar.

Happy Chanukah to all Jewish FReepers!

My neighbor and I were just planning our latke party. I am shortly leaving to go purchase the supplies to make the potato latkes, some whole wheat challah rolls for Shabbos, and the rest of my Shabbos meal ingredients.
