The Wisdom of a Jewish Mama
To all those who are (or have, know, and love) Jewish mothers:
Mrs. Rabinowitz comes to visit her son David for 3 days in New York where he is studying. She finds out that her son lives with Sarah, a girl roommate. Mrs. Rabinowitz couldn't help but notice how pretty David's roommate was. She suspects a relationship between the two, and this had only made her more curious. Reading his Mum's thoughts, David volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, Sarah and I are just roommates."
About a week later, Sarah came to David saying, "Ever since your mother left, I've been unable to find the silver sugarbowl. You don't suppose she took it do you?"
"Well, I doubt it, but I'll email her, just to be sure." So he sat down and wrote:
"Dear Mom, I'm not saying that you "did" take the sugar bowl from my house, and I'm not saying that you "did not" take it. But the fact remains that it has been missing ever since you left.
Love,
David
Several days later, David received an email from his Mom which read:
Dear Son, I'm not saying that you "do" sleep with Sarah, and I'm not saying that you "do not" sleep with her. But the fact remains that if she was sleeping in her OWN bed, she would have found the
Sugar bowl by now.
Love,
Mom
Lesson of the day:
Don't Lie to Your Mother... especially if she's Jewish
