On Board El Al
As the plane settled down at Ben Gurion airport, the voice of the Captain
came on:
"Please remain seated with your seatbelt fastened until this plane is at
a
complete standstill and the seat belt signs have been turned off."
"To those who are seated, we wish you a Merry Christmas, and hope that
you
enjoy your stay in Israel, ...and to those of you standing in the aisles and pushing towards the doors, we wish you
a Happy Hanukkah, and welcome back home."

Holiday Greetings to Some and All
Please accept with no obligation, implied or
implicit my best wishes for an environmentally
conscious, socially responsible, low stress,
non-addictive, gender neutral, celebration of
the winter solstice holiday, practiced within
the most enjoyable traditions of the religious
persuasion of your choice, or secular practices
of your choice, with respect for the religious/
secular persuasions and/or traditions of others,
or their choice not to practice religious or
secular traditions at all...
A N D
A fiscally successful, personally fulfilling, and
medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset
of the generally accepted calendar year 2005, but
not without due respect for the calendars of choice
of other cultures whose contributions to society
have helped make America great, (not to imply that
America is necessarily greater than any other country
or is the only "AMERICA" in the western hemisphere,)
and without regard to the race, creed, color, age,
physical ability, religious faith, or sexual
preference
of the wishee.
By accepting this greeting, you are accepting these
terms. This greeting is subject to clarification or
withdrawal. It is freely transferable with no
alteration
to the original greeting. It implies no promise by
the wisher to actually implement any of the wishes for
her/himself or others, and is void where prohibited by
law, and is revocable at the sole discretion of the
wisher.
This wish is warranted to perform as expected within
the usual application of good tidings for a period of
one year, or until the issuance of a subsequent
holiday
greeting, whichever comes first, and warranty is

to replacement of this wish or issuance of a new wish
at
the sole discretion of the wisher.
...so, therefore, to some and all have a Happy and
Healthy Holiday Season from the wisher, aka the workers of the Jmag.

A Lesson in Economics......
TRADITIONAL CAPITALISM
You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull. Your herd multiplies,
and the economy grows. You sell them and retire on the income.
VENTURE CAPITALISM
You have two cows. You sell three of them to your publicly listed
company, using letters of credit opened by your brother-in-law at the
bank, then execute a debt/equity swap with an associated general offer
so that you get all four cows back, with a tax exemption for five cows.
The milk rights of the six cows are transferred via an intermediary to a
Cayman Island company secretly owned by the majority shareholder who
sells the rights to all seven cows back to your listed company. The
annual report says the company owns eight cows, with an option on one
more. Sell one cow to buy a new president of the United States, leaving
you with nine cows. No balance sheet provided with the release. The
public buys your bull.
AN AMERICAN CORPORATION
You have two cows. You sell one, and force the other to produce the milk
of four cows. You are surprised when the cow drops dead.
A FRENCH CORPORATION
You have two cows. You go on strike because you want three cows.
A JAPANESE CORPORATION
You have two cows. You redesign them so they are one-tenth the size of
an ordinary cow and produce twenty times the milk. You then create
Clever cow cartoon images called Cowkimon and market them World-Wide.
A GERMAN CORPORATION
You have two cows. You reengineer them so they live for 100 years, Eat
once a month, and milk themselves.
A BRITISH CORPORATION
You have two cows. Both are mad.
AN ITALIAN CORPORATION
You have two cows, but you don't know where they are. You break for
lunch.
A RUSSIAN CORPORATION
You have two cows. You count them and learn you have five cows. You
count them again and learn you have 42 cows. You count them again and
learn you have 12 cows. You stop counting cows and open another bottle
of vodka.
A SWISS CORPORATION
You have 5000 cows, none of which belong to you. You charge others for
storing them.
A HINDU CORPORATION
You have two cows. You worship them.
A CHINESE CORPORATION
You have two cows. You have 300 people milking them. You claim full
employment, high bovine productivity, and arrest the newsman who

Einstien's Idea
An old Jewish man reads about Einstein's theory of
relativity in the newspaper and asks his university educated
grandson to explain it to him.
"Well, grandpa , it's sort of like this. Einstein says
that if you're having your teeth drilled without
Novocain, a minute seems like an hour. But if you're
sitting with a beautiful woman on your lap, an
hour seems like a minute."
The old man considers this profound bit of mathematical
thinking for a moment and says, ....
...."And from this Einstein made a living?"

Chocolate Rules
If you've got melted chocolate all over your hands,
you're eating it too slowly.
Chocolate covered raisins, cherries, orange slices
& strawberries all count as fruit, so eat as many
as you want.
The problem: How to get 2 pounds of chocolate home
from the store in hot car. The solution: Eat it in
the parking lot.
Diet tip: Eat a chocolate bar before each meal.
It'll take the edge off your appetite and you'll
eat less.
A nice box of chocolates can provide your total
daily intake of calories in one place. Isn't that
handy?
If you can't eat all your chocolate, it will keep
in the freezer. But if you can't eat all your
chocolate, what's wrong with you?
If calories are an issue, store your chocolate on
top of the fridge. Calories are afraid of heights,
and they will jump out of the chocolate to protect
themselves.
If I eat equal amounts of dark chocolate and white
chocolate, is that a balanced diet? Don't they
Money talks. Chocolate sings.
Chocolate has many preservatives. Preservatives
make you look younger.
Q. Why is there no such organization as
Chocoholics Anonymous?
A. Because no one wants to quit.
If not for chocolate, there would be no need for
control top pantyhose. An entire garment industry
would be devastated.
Put "eat chocolate" at the top of your list of
things to do today. That way, at least you'll get
one thing done.
