A rabbi, preparing to retire, is cleaning out his office and comes across a small box containing the remnants of the Brises he had performed over the years. Thinking there must be something useful to be done with the boxes contents, he calls a leather tanner to make something. The leather tanner takes the box, and promises to return in a week.

A week later the tanner returns to the Rabbi’s office with a gift box. The Rabbi opens the box, and produces a small change purse.

“Why, that wonderful,” he says to the tanner. “Now every time I go to get change for a purchase, I’ll be reminded of the work I’ve done for the Lord, in marking His children with the sign of the Covenant with Abraham.”

The tanner replies to the Rabbi, “It’s a very special purse, too.”

“What more could there be to this purse?”

“Well,” says the tanner, “If you stroke it a few times, it turns into a suitcase.”

A lion in the zoo was lying in the sun licking its rear end when a visitor turned to the zoo keeper and said, "That's a docile old thing isn't it?"

"No way," said the zoo keeper, "it's the most ferocious beast in the zoo. Why just an hour ago it dragged a Frenchman into the cage and completely devoured him."

"Hardly seems possible" said the astonished visitor, "but why is it lying there licking its rear?"

"The poor thing is trying to get the taste out of its mouth."

I saw an add for a rifle on Ebay:

"French rifle for sale, cheap. Never fired, dropped once."
