All I can say is that if you have grown to maturity with out enough
common sense to know how to change a light switch cover then you better
go back and crawl into your mothers womb and come out and start anew
with life. Only this time learn some common sense as you grow up.
Because your going to need it before you die unless you dfie very soon.
It is a bit hard for me to realize that any person can be so dumb in
this day frame.

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!

Give me a break. Climb back under the bridge and charge the goats to cross,
