A Joke to Start the Week - "The Bank Robbery"

It's Monday in sunny Florida, where we're spending the rest of the winter. It's also Monday wherever you are. And wherever you are, it's time for another Joke to Start the Week. 

Today's joke is another one from Old Jews Telling Jokes, the gift that keeps on giving. Here's one from their archives, told by Mike Leiderman -- sportscaster, producer, and TV host guy.

Here's the setup: A bunch of Orthodox Jews go to rob a bank. Which bank? Bank Leumi and Bank Hapoalim of Israel, of course. And they all show up in their shtreimels and in their black hats and their long felt coats. And then...

Enjoy!

A Joke to Start the Week - "Parking in Tel Aviv"

We're starting off the week after Thanksgiving with another joke, this one from the archives of Sam Hoffman's Old Jews Telling Jokes. This week's joke teller is sportscaster and executive producer Mike Leiderman. 

It's an "only in Israel" joke, one that highlights the unique flavor of humor in Israel, a flavor that we've captured in our book, Israel is a Funny Country, which has evolved into one of our most popular programs on the lecture circuit.

We'll be in Jerusalem for the next few weeks, looking for other examples of Israeli humor that we can share. Mike's joke today is set in Tel Aviv, but it could be anywhere else in the country. 

Here's the setup: A motorist drives up to a cop in Tel Aviv and he says "Can I park here?" and then...

Enjoy!

A Joke to Start the Week: "Looking for the Indian"

It's Monday again, and it's time for another Joke to Start the Week. Here's another one from the archives of Old Jews Telling Jokes. Today's joke teller is Sportscaster, Producer, and TV Host Mike Leiderman.

Here's the setup:  The desperados and outlaws in the old west commandeer the stagecoach -- the Wells Fargo, they shoot everybody and they've got the strongbox. The only survivor among the passengers is this little old Jewish man. They say to him "Look buddy, we're not going to kill you because we need you to be our lookout." And then...

Enjoy!
