Mr. and Mrs. Greenberg go out to see “Wicked” at the Gershwin on Broadway.
This is the hottest show in town…sold out for years!.
The Greenberg’s have front row seats.
But they notice that in the row behind them, there’s an empty seat.
Intermission comes and no one has sat in that seat, Mrs. Greenberg turns to the woman sitting next to it…
“Pardon me, but, we were wondering, why’s that seat empty?”
The woman says, “That’s my late husband’s seat.”
Greenberg is horrified- apologizes for being so insensitive.
but says…
“I don’t mean to be rude or anything, but this is an incredibly hard show to get into. you must have a friend, a relative who would have wanted to come and see the show?”
“They’re all at the funeral.”

A guy goes into a diner and ‘asks what’s good?’
Waitress recommends the tongue sandwich.
Guy grimaces ‘ Ugh, I could never eat something that came out of a cow’s mouth!
Just bring me some eggs ! ‘

An amusing connection between food and the Jewish experience is found in this oft-quoted nine-word summary of Jewish history:
“They tried to kill us. We won. Let’s eat.”
