A new classic...

>
> The IRS sends an auditor to audit a Synagogue.
> The auditor is doing all the checks, and then turns to the Rabbi and says, “I noticed that you buy a lot of candles.”
>
> “Yes,” answered the Rabbi.
>
> “Well, Rabbi, what do you do with the candle drippings?” he asked.
>
> “A good question,” noted the Rabbi. “We actually saved them up. When we have enough, we send them back to the candle maker and every now and then, they send us a free box of candles.”
>
> “Oh,” replied the auditor, somewhat disappointed that his question actually had a practical answer.
>
> So he thought he’d try another question in his obnoxious way, “Rabbi, what about all these matzo purchases? What do you do with the crumbs from the matzo?"
> “Ah, yes,” replied the Rabbi calmly, “we actually collect up the crumbs. We send them in a box back to the manufacturer, and every now and then they send a box of matzo balls.”
>
> “Oh,” replied the auditor, thinking hard about how to fluster the Rabbi. “Well, Rabbi,” he went on, “what do you do with all the foreskins from the circumcisions?”
>
> “Yes, here too, we do not waste,” answered the Rabbi.
>
> “What we do is save up all the foreskins, and when we have enough we actually send them to the IRS.”
>
> “To the IRS ?” questioned the auditor in disbelief.
>
> “Ah, yes,” replied the Rabbi, “directly to The IRS … And about once a year, they send us a little prick like you.”
>
> Soon there will be another 87,000 of them.
