- One of my favorite jokes, a telling commentary on Jewish mothers'
- capacity to lay on guilt, involves the mother who gave her son two
- neckties on Chanuka.
-
- "The boy hurried into his bedroom, ripped off the tie he was
- wearing, put on one of the ties his mother had brought him, and hurried
- back. "Look, Mama! Isn't it gorgeous?"
-
- "Mama asked, 'What's the matter? You don't like the other one?'"
