Those are good. I may have to pass them on, with your permission, of course.

I can understand the Jewish mother's pride in her doctor son. Anybody can become president if they can convince enough people to vote for them. A doctor on the other hand requires years and years of education and training.

Excellent, Mark!! I had an Italian Grandmother. She expected her children to marry Italians. While in the service during the war, my Dad met my mother, a non-Italian and married her three months later. Grandma, lovely woman that she was, was not particularly happy....until the day that she met my Mother. Then she understood and loved my Mom from that day on.

Yes. Know a Italian Mom just like that and time in NYC gives me a good point of reference for the Jewish Mom. True and funny stuff

JEWISH MOTHER

The year is 2024 and the United States has elected the first woman as well as the first Jewish president, Susan Goldstein.

She calls up her mother a few weeks after Election Day and says, "So, Mom, I assume you'll be coming to my inauguration?"

"I don't think so. It's a ten-hour drive, your father isn't as young as he used to be, and my arthritis is acting up again."

"Don't worry about it, Mom, I'll send Air Force One to pick you up and take you home. And a limousine will pick you up at your door."

"I don't know. Everybody will be so fancy-schmantzy; what on earth would I wear?

Susan replies, "I'll make sure you have a wonderful gown, custom-made by the best designer in New York."

"Honey," Mom complains, "you know I can't eat those rich foods you and your friends like to eat."

The President-to-be responds, "Don't worry Mom. The entire affair is going to be handled by the best caterer in New York; kosher all the way. Mom, I really want you to come."

So Mom reluctantly agrees and on January 20, 2025, Susan Goldstein is being sworn in as President of the United States. In the front row sits the new President's mother, who leans over to a Senator sitting next to her and says, "You see that woman over there with her hand on the Torah, becoming President of the United States?"

The Senator whispers back, "Yes, I do."

Mom says proudly, "Her brother is a doctor.



ITALIAN MOTHER

Giuseppe excitedly tells his mother he's fallen in love and that he is going to get married.

He says, "Just for fun, Mama, I'm going to bring over three women and you try and guess which one I'm going to marry." The mother agrees.

The next day, he brings three beautiful women into the house, sits them down on the couch and they chat for a while

He then says, "Okay, Mama, guess which one am I going to marry?"

Mama says immediately, "The one on the right."

"That's amazing, Mama. You're right. How did you know?"

Mama replies: "I don't like her."


Laugh a little and stay safe.

Very funny and great fun. Living in metro NY for 14 years was a culture grad school from so many ethnic peoples. Your jokes helped me reach back to memories of the people I met and knew very well. Thanks
