A Joke to Start the Week: "Dinner in London"
It's Monday, Memorial Day. Not everyone is working today, but it's still a good day to start the week with a joke. Here's an oldie but goodie about a dinner in London. The joke teller is Paul Cohen, a 70-year-old salesman in printer management and veteran contributor to Old Jews Telling Jokes.

They hired a staff of the most Anglo servants they could possibly have. One night they were leaving the house and told one of the staff, "James, could you make sure the table is set for four..." And then...
Enjoy!
