Subject: [taxchat] Funny Joke re IRS

At the end of the tax year the IRS sent an inspector to audit the books
of a synagogue.

While he was checking the books, he turned to the Rabbi and said, 'I
notice you buy a lot of candles. What do you do with the candle
drippings?'

 

'Good question,' noted the Rabbi. 'We save them up and send them back
to the candle makers, and every now and then they send us a free box of
candles'

'Oh,' replied the auditor, somewhat disappointed that his unusual
question had a practical answer.  But on he went, in his obnoxious way:
'What about all these matzo (bread) purchases? What do you do with the
crumbs?'


'Ah, yes,' replied the Rabbi, realizing that the inspector was trying
to trap him with an unanswerable question. 'We collect them and send
back to the manufacturers, and every now and then they send a free box
of matzo balls.'


'I see,' replied the auditor, thinking hard about how he could fluster
the know-it-all Rabbi. 'Well, Rabbi,' he went on, 'What do you do with
all the leftover foreskins from the circumcisions you perform?'


'Here, too, we do not waste,' answered the Rabbi
'What we do is save up all the foreskins and send them to the Internal Revenue Service ,
and about once a year they send us a complete dick.'
