Stanley’s having coffee in his palatial home when there’s a knock on the door. It’s the Rabbi. He says, “Stanley, we have a very important new initiative at the synagogue. We’re building a preschool that’s going to ensure the future of our community! And Stanley, we really need your help in a significant way.”
Stanley replies, “Rabbi, I got a kid in college, he wants to go to law school. I got another kid in college, she wants to go to medical school. I got a cousin on the verge of bankruptcy who needs a bridge loan or his whole life is going to fall apart. I got an aunt who needs a lifesaving operation. And rabbi, if I can say no to them, I can say no to you!”
