The Unconventional Gazette
February 20, 2014
During the regular Saturday morning service at Congregation Shearith Israel, Rabbi Moishe Khosherman announced that he was planning to leave for a larger congregation that would pay him more. There is a hush within the congregation. No one wants him to leave because he is so popular.
Fred Shapiro, who owns several car dealerships in Venice and Sarasota, stands up and proclaims, “If the rabbi stays, I will provide him with a new Cadillac every year and his wife with a Honda mini-van to transport their children!”
The congregation sighs in appreciation and applauds.
Saul Cohen, a successful businessman and lawyer, stands and says, “If the rabbi will stay on here, I'll personally double his salary and establish a foundation to guarantee a free college education for his children!”
More sighs and loud applause!
Estelle Rubin, age 88, stands and announces with a smile, “If the rabbi stays, I will give him sex!”
There is total silence.
Rabbi Khosherman, blushing, asks her: “Mrs. Rubin, you're a wonderful and holy lady. Whatever possessed you to say that?”
Estelle's 90-year old husband, Abe, is now trying to hide, holding his forehead with the palm of his hand and shaking his head from side to side, while his wife replies:
“Well, I just asked my husband how we could help, and he said, “Fuck him!”
