This came to me in the evening mail and I saw it this morning.
A fill in your adjective punch line.
No attempt is being made to be derogatory to anyone.
Subject: Old Jewish Man
Rebecca Smith, a CNN journalist, heard about an 89-year-old Jewish man who
had been going to the Western Wall to pray, twice a day, every day, for the
past 75 years. So she
decided to check it out.
She went to the Western Wall and saw an old Jewish man walking slowly up
to the holy site. She watched him pray for almost an hour.
When he turned to leave, holding a cane and moving very slowly, she
approached him for an interview.
"Pardon me, sir, I'm Rebecca Smith from CNN. What's your name?"
"Morris Feinberg", he replied.
"Sir, how long have you been coming to the Western Wall and praying?"
"For 75 years."
"75 years! That's amazing! What do you pray for?"
"I pray for peace between the Christians, Jews and the Muslims."
"I pray for all the wars and all the hatred to stop."
"I pray for all our children to grow up safely as responsible adults and to
love their fellow man."
"I pray that politicians tell us the truth and put the interests of the
people ahead of their own interests."
"How do you feel after doing this for 75 years?"
"Like I've been talking to a (________) wall."
