* 27. Shalom, Dammit! this is Rabbi Sol Solomon, Temple Sons of Bitches. Since it is Purim time, I am proud once again to be an honorary guest reader for The Wretched Pun of Destiny:
A terrible hurricane strikes the east coast, doing untold damage to the farmlands. Hearing about this, the first Jewish President cuts short her vacation to come survey the destruction.
First, she visits a sugarcane field in Louisiana, where the crop has been depleted by the storm.
“Oy,” she says. Then the she flies up to New York to see a cabbage farm that has been torn to shreds. “Oy,” says the President.
Finally, they drive her to Massachusetts to see the twisted remains of what had been a thriving vineyard. “Oy,” says the president once more.
The next morning at her press conference, a reporter asks, “Madame President, what were your thoughts on seeing what happened to the sugar and the cabbage and the grapes?”
“Well,” comes the reply. “Oy Cane, Oy Slaw, Oy Concord.”

26. When writer Christopher Hitchens died in 2011, his body was donated for medical research.
Two doctors performing the autopsy were shocked to find just how many tumors he had inside his cancer-ridden body.
“He has a perfectly good liver,” says one doctor. “But the tumor attached to it is massive.”
“So,” says the other doctor, “just cut it with a laser.”
“I can’t. It’ll get too close to living tissue.”
The second doctor says, “Well, what about aspirating it with a needle?”
“No, it’s too dense; it’s a big heap of tumor.”
“Well, in that case, just get a sander. Like taking old paint off a boat. Just sand it down slowly until it’s gone.”
“No,” says the first doctor. “I don’t feel right about doing that.”
“Oh, for Pete’s sake,” says the second doctor. “If you can’t sand the heap, get out of the Hitchens.”
