At the end of the year, the Tax Office sent an inspector to audit the

>"Good question" noted the Rabbi. "We save them up and send them back to

>send us a free box of candles."

>"Oh" replied the auditor, somewhat disappointed that his unusual

>What about these biscuit purchases? What do you do with the crumbs?"
>"Ah
>yes" replied the Rabbi, realising that the inspector was trying to trap
him

>with

>"We collect them and send them back to the manufacturers and every now
>and
>then, they send us a free box of holy biscuits."

>"I see" replied the auditor, thinking hard how he could fluster the
>know-it-all Rabbi. "Well Rabbi," he went on. "What do you do with all
the

>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 Tax
>Office,
>and about once a year, they send us a complete dick."
