The Pope and The Poor Beggar

Too funny not to repeat!

Pope and The Poor Beggar Two beggars are sitting side by side on a street in Rome, Italy. One has a Cross in front of him; the other one is holding the Star of David. Many people go by, look at both beggars, but only put money into the hat of the beggar sitting behind the Cross. The Pope comes by. He stops to watch the throngs of people giving money to the beggar who holds the Cross while none give to the beggar holding the Star of David. Finally, the Pope approaches the beggar with the Star of David and says: "My poor fellow, don't you understand? This is a Catholic country; this city is the seat of Catholicism. People aren't going to give you money if you sit there with a Star of David in front of you, especially when you're sitting beside a beggar who is holding a Cross. In fact, they would probably give more money to him just out of spite!" The beggar with the Star of David listened to the Pope, smiled, and turned to the beggar with the Cross and said: "Moishe, would you look who's trying to teach the Goldstein brothers about marketing!"

PS

Reminds me of the 'Foreign Examiner' from UK at the Master of Surgery exam finals held in Sri Lanka.

I asked him who looks after his patients in his wards while he is away in Sri Lanka. He replied . 'By the doctors who ALWAYS look after my patients'.

Have a look at the attached items sold in Ceylon in the 1930's . I was just fascinated by them.  Surely just cannot be imagined in this day and age
