OSAMA'S VALENTINE
Little David comes
home from first grade and tells his father that
they learned about the history of Valentine's
Day. "Since Valentine's Day is for a Christian
saint and we're Jewish," he asks, "will God get
mad at me for giving someone a valentine?"
David's father thinks a bit, then says "No, I
don't think God would get mad. Who do you want
to give a valentine to?"
"Osama Bin Laden," David says.
"Why Osama Bin Laden," his father asks in
shock.
"Well," David says, "I thought that if a little
American Jewish boy could have enough love to
give Osama a valentine, he might start to think
that maybe we're not all bad, and maybe start
loving people a little bit. And if other kids
saw what I did and sent valentines to Osama,
he'd love everyone a lot. And then he'd start
going all over the place to tell everyone how
much he loved them and how he didn't hate anyone
anymore."
His father's heart swells and he looks at his
boy with newfound pride.
"David, that's the most wonderful thing I've
ever heard."
"I know," David says, "and once that gets him
out in the open, the Marines shoot him."
THE DIVORCE LAWYER
A guy walks into a post office one day
to see a middle-aged, balding man
standing at the counter methodically
placing "Love" stamps on bright pink
envelopes with hearts all over them. He
then takes out a perfume bottle and
starts spraying scent all over them.
His curiosity getting the better of him,
he goes up to the balding man and asks
him what he is doing. The man says, "I'm
sending out 1,000 Valentine cards
signed, 'Guess who?'"
"But why?" asks the man.
"I'm a divorce lawyer," the man replies. |
