Stranded on an Island
NextA Jewish couple, are sitting together on an airplane flying to the Far East. Over the public address system, the Captain announces:
- Ladies and Gentlemen, I am afraid I have some very bad news. Our engines have ceased functioning, and this plane will be going down momentarily. Luckily, I see an island below us that should be able to accommodate our landing. This island appears to be uncharted; I am unable to find it on our maps. So the odds are that we will never be rescued and will have to live on the island for a very long time, if not for the rest of our lives.
A few minutes later the plane lands safely on the island, whereupon Morris turns to his wife and asks:
- Esther, did we pay our pledge to the Yeshiva yet?
- No Morris! - she responded.
Morris smiles, then asks:
- Esther, did we pay our UJA pledge?
- Oy no, I forgot to send the check!!
Now Morris laughs.
- One last thing, Esther. Did you remember to send our Temple Building Fund check this month?
- Oy Morris I forgot that one too!
Now Morris is practically choking with laughter. Esther asks Morris:
- So what are you smiling and laughing about?
Morris responds:
- They'll find us.
