A Jewish couple, are sitting together on an airplane flying tothe Far East. Over the public address system, the Captain announces: „Ladies and Gentlemen, I am afraid I have some verybad news. Our engines have ceased functioning, and this planewill be going down momentarily. Luckily, I see an island belowus that should be able to accommodate our landing. This islandappears to be uncharted; I am unable to find it on our maps. Sothe odds are that we will never be rescued and will have to liveon the island for a very long time, if not for the rest of ourlives. A few minutes later the plane lands safely on the island,whereupon Morris turns to his wife and asks, „Esther, did we payour pledge to the Yeshiva yet?““No Morris!“ she responded.Morris smiles, then asks, „Esther, did we pay our UJA pledge?““Oy no, I forgot to send the check!!“Now Morris laughs.“One last thing, Esther. Did you remember to send our TempleBuilding Fund check this month?““Oy Morris I forgot that one too!“Now Morris is practically choking with laughter.Esther asks Morris, „So what are you smiling and laughing about?“Morris responds, „They’ll find us!!“
