Early Christmas joke
>>
>> The teacher, Ms. Pelzner, was very curious about how each of her
>>students
>> celebrated Christmas. She called on young Patrick Murphy.
>>
>> "Tell me Patrick, what do you do at Christmas time?" she asked.
>>
>> Patrick addressed the class, "Well Ms. Pelzner, me and my twelve
>>brothers
>> and sisters go to the midnight Mass and we sing hymns, and then
>>we come
>> home very late and we put mince pies by the back door and hang up
>>our
>> stockings. Then all excited, we go to bed and wait for Father
>>Christmas to
>> come with all our toys."
>>
>> "Very nice Patrick," she said. "Now Jimmy Brown, what do you do
>>at
>> Christmas?"
>>
>> "Well, Ms. Jones, me and my sister also go to Church with Mum and
>>Dad and
>> we sing carols and we get home ever so late. We put cookies and
>>milk by
>> the chimney and we hang up our stockings. We hardly sleep,
>>waiting for
>> Santa Claus to bring our presents, "
>>
>> Realizing there was a Jewish boy in the class and not wanting to
>>leave
>> him out of the discussion, she asked, "Now, Isaac Cohen, what do
>>you do
>> at Christmas?"
>>
>> Isaac said, "Well, it's the same thing every year. Dad comes home
>>from
>> the office. We all pile into the Rolls Royce, then we drive to
>>his toy
>> factory. When we get inside, we look at all the empty shelves and
>>begin
>> to sing, " What a friend we have in Jesus." Then we all go to the
>>Bahamas.
