Moishe! 

A man walks into the street and manages to get a taxi just going by. He

gets into the taxi, and the cabbie says, "Perfect timing.  You're just

like Moishe."

Passenger: "Who?"

Cabbie: "Moishe Glickman.  There's a guy who did everything right. Like

my coming along when you needed a cab. It would have happened like that

to Moishe every single time."

Passenger: "There are always a few clouds over everybody."

Cabbie: "Not Moishe.  He was a terrific athlete. He could have gone on

the pro tour in tennis.  He could golf with the pros.  He sang like an

opera baritone and danced like a Broadway star and you should have heard

him play the piano."

Passenger: "Sounds like he was something, huh?"

Cabbie: "He had a memory like a computer. Could remember everybody's

birthday. He knew all about wine, which foods to order and which fork to

eat them with.  He could fix anything. Not like me. I change a fuse, and

the whole neighborhood blacks out."

Passenger. "Wow, some guy ehh?

Cabbie: "He always knew the quickest way to go in traffic and avoid

traffic

jams,  not like me,  I always seem to get into them"

Passenger:  Mmm, not many like that around"

Cabbie: "And he knew how to treat a woman and make her feel good and

never answer her back even if she was in the wrong; and his clothing was

always immaculate, shoes highly polished too."

Passenger: "An amazing fellow. How did you meet him?"

Cabbie: "Well, I never actually met Moishe."

Passenger: "Then how do you know so much about him?"

Cabbie: "I married his widow."
