End of tax year joke

by George

At the end of the tax year the Tax Office sends out an Inspector to audit the books of a synagogue.

While he was checking the books he turned to the Rabbi and said " I notice you buy alot of candles, what do you do with the candle drippings?"

"Good question" noted the the Rabbi.. "we save them up 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 disapointed that his unusual question had a practical answer.

But he went on in his obnoxious way. "What about all these matzo (bread) purchases?.. what do you do with all the crumbs?"

"Ah, yes "replied the Rabbi, realising that the inspector was trying to trap him with an unanswerable question "we collect them and send them back to the manufactures and every now and then they send a free box of matzo balls"

"I see" replied the auditor thinking hard about he could fluster the know-it-all Rabbi.

"Well Rabbi", he went on "What do you do with all the leftover foreskin from the circumcisions you perform?"

"Here, too, we do not waste", answered the Rabbi.. "what we do is save up all the foreskins and send them to the Tax Office and about once a year they send us a complete dick"
