A Jewish couple won twenty-million dollars in the lottery. They
immediately set out to begin a life of luxury. They bought a magnificent

mansion estate in Southampton and surrounded themselves with all the
material
wealth imaginable.They then decided to have a butler and,wanting the
best,they traveled to London to hire one.

They found the perfect butler through an agency and brought him back to
their
estate. The day after his arrival, they instructed him to set up the
dining
room table for four, that they were inviting the Cohens to brunch.

The couple then left the house to do some shopping. When they returned,

they
found the table set for eight. They asked the butler why eight, when
they
had specifically instructed him to set the table for four.

The butler replied, "The Cohens telephoned and said they were bringing
the
Bagels and the Bialys.
