Hang in there, Jewish friends; the leavened bread is just a few days away. In the meantime (why is time so mean?) here’s an old joke. One of the oldest – at least from the standpoint of when it takes place…
Back in the early early days of The Garden – REALLY early; back when Eve was around but before the serpent showed up, Adam was trying his best to learn how to cope with a woman. It wasn’t easy; Adam had never had a woman in his life – not even a mother. He found himself on his knees, praying fervently about his plight:“Oh, Lord,” he moaned, “Why did you make her so beautiful?”
“So you would be attracted to her, My Son,” came the sonorous tones of The Almighty from above.
“OK, God,” Adam went on. “But why did you have to make her so DUMB?”
