blowing the Shofar Two old black men are walking down the street one day, when they happen to pass by a Jewish synagogue. Suddenly they hear a strange wailing sound. One old fellow turns to his buddy and says ""What was THAT?!"" The buddy replies ""Well I used to work for a Jewish family, and I happen to know that it was the sound of the Rabbi blowing the Shofar! (NOTE: A ritual ram's horn used for certain services) The first old gentleman thinks for a moments and says, ""Hmmm... Those Jewish folk sure are good to the help!""
