At the end of the tax year, the IRS sent an inspector to audit the books
of a synagogue.
While he was checking the books, he said to the Rabbi, 'I notice you buy
a lot of candles. What do you do with the candle drippings?'
'Good question,' noted the Rabbi. 'We save them and send them back to
the candle makers, and every now and then they send us a free box of
candles.'
'Oh,' replied the auditor, somewhat disappointed t hat his unusual
question had a practical answer.
But on he went, in his obnoxious way: What about all these matzo (bread)
purchases? What do you do with the crumbs?'
'Ah, yes,' replied the Rabbi, realizing that the inspector was trying to
trap him with an unanswerable question. 'We collect them and send back
to the manufacturers, and every now and then they send a free box of
matzo balls..'
'I see,' replied the auditor, thinking hard about how he could fluster
the know-it-all Rabbi. 'Well, Rabbi, what do you do with all th e
leftover foreskins from the circumcisions you perform?'
'Here, too, we do not waste,' answered the Rabbi. 'We save up all the
foreskins and send them to the Internal Revenue Service, and about once
a year they send us a complete dick.'
