My son broke the one on his bedroom light switch. The switch works
but that cover thingie is broken. I see 2 of thouse things that got a
groove in them. Somebody tole me I need a screwydiver to change them.




Well if you're a fan of Jackie Mason's you probably heard him say that
there's never a screwdriver to be found in a Jewish home, and that
butterknives are used instead.

He goes on to say something about finding cream cheese in the slots of
screwheads proving that was the case.

Mason had something to say about screwdrivers in this snippet from an
interview:

*************

JCN: You talk about construction and contractors in your new book.

JACKIE MASON: I joke in my act about how Jews can't do anything with
tools. A Gentile's house is like a workshop. You can hear it thirty
miles away. You'll hear buzzsaws binging and hacking. Everything is busy
in a Gentile's house. They don't sit still for a second. A Gentile is
not happy unless he is banging something with a hammer or clipping
something off with a chotchke or a saw. There are four thousand versions
of a screwdriver in a Gentile's house. Ask a Jew if he has a
screwdriver. "I have a screwdriver? I thought you had the screwdriver."
Anti-semitism is nothing compared to two Jews looking for a screwdriver.

A Happy Passover to whoever's celebrating!
