One cold, winter evening, a preacher and a rabbi have a fender- bender. They both got out of their cars and meet one another in the street.
"I was on my way to the synagogue and oy, the icy streets!" said the rabbi. "I understand, I too am a man of the cloth, on my way to church to write tomorrow's sermon" said the preacher.
Stomping their feet and bracing to the cold, the preacher reaches into his pocket and seems surprised to find a small flask. Withdrawing it, he says "Say, look what I found rabbi. Care for a nip to fend off the cold?" he asks.
The rabbi, remaining friendly, accepts the flask, takes a good long pull on it and then offers it back to the preacher.
"Oh, no thanks," the preacher says, "the police will be here any minute." |
