    Jewish Bookie

    The bookie was elated. He made a quick dash to the ATM, withdrew all his savings, and awaited for the Priest's blessing that would tell him which horse to bet on.



    True to his pattern, the Priest stepped onto the track for the last race and blessed the forehead of an old nag that was 100/1. This time the priest blessed the eyes, ears, and hooves of the old nag.



    The bookie knew he had a winner and bet every cent he owned on the old nag.



    He watched dumbfounded as the old nag pulled up and couldn't even finish the race.



    In a state of shock, he went to the track area where the Priest was.



    Confronting him, he demanded, 'Father! What happened?

    All day long you blessed horses and they all won.


    Then in the last race, the horse you blessed never even had a chance.

    Now, thanks to you I've lost every cent of my savings!'.



    The Priest nodded wisely and with sympathy. "You are not Catholic are you my son?"



    "No, I'm Jewish"



    "That's the problem", said the Priest,



    "You couldn't tell the difference between a blessing and last rites".
