Warning: Don't Read If You Dislike Puns!
Sweetest friends! Chazal tell us in Pirkei Avos that there are 48 ways to acquire Torah. One of them is "Miyut Schok". One must laugh a little in order to acquire Torah! I recently learned a Yiddish expression - "Lachen is gezunt, doctoirin heisen lachen" - Laughing is healthy, doctors hate laughter.
So laugh, be healthy - and then learn.
This has been circulating [sent to me by my punny priend - Corey Adler]:
1. The roundest knight at King Arthur's round table was Sir Cumference. He acquired his size from too much pi.
2. I thought I saw an eye doctor on an Alaskan island, but it turned out to be an optical Aleutian.
3. She was only a whisky maker, but he loved her still.
4. A rubber band pistol was confiscated from algebra class because it was a weapon of math disruption.
6. No matter how much you push the envelope, it'll still be stationery.
7. A dog gave birth to puppies near the road and was cited for littering.
9. Two silk worms had a race. They ended up in a tie.
10. Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.
12. Atheism is a non-prophet organization.
13. Two hats were hanging on a hat rack in the hallway. One hat said to the other, 'You stay here, I'll go on a head.'
14. I wondered why the baseball kept getting bigger. Then it hit me.
17. A chicken crossing the road is poultry in motion.
19. The short fortune-teller who escaped from prison was a small medium at large.
20. The man who survived mustard gas and pepper spray is now a seasoned veteran.
21. A backward poet writes inverse.
23. When cannibals ate a missionary, they got a taste of religion.
So laugh, be healthy - and then learn.
