Subject: AMAZING GOLDSTEIN

A traveling salesman visits to a small town in the Midwest and sees a
circus banner reading, "Don't miss the Amazing Goldstein!"

Curious, he buys a ticket and sits through the usual circus acts.
Animals, clowns, contortionists, and other questionable acts.

Finally the trumpets blare and all eyes turn to the center ring. There
in the middle of the ring is a table with three walnuts on it.

In comes a little old Jewish man, five feet tall and barely able to walk
to the table. He unzips his pants and whips out a long shlong and
proceeds to smash all three walnuts with three swings!

The crowd erupts in thunderous applause as the elderly Goldstein is
carried off on the shoulders of clowns.

Twenty years later the salesman visits the same little town and he sees
a faded sign for the same circus and the same "Don't Miss the Amazing
Goldstein."

He can't believe the old guy is still alive much less still doing his
act!

Again he buys a ticket sits through the acts and again the center ring
is illuminated. This time three coconuts are on the table and old
Goldstein takes forever to make it to the table. He smashes the coconuts
with three swings of his amazing weapon and the crowd goes crazy!

The salesman requests a meeting with him after the show. In his dressing
room he tells him he's never seen anything like the act. But he wants to
know why he is now smashing coconuts instead of the much easier walnuts.

"Vell," says Goldstein, "my eyes aren't vhat they used to be!"
