A Joke to Start the Week: "Squeezing the Lemon"

Tonight we light the sixth candle of Hanukkah. So you think you're gettting another Hanukkah music video? Think again, because today is Monday, and it's time for another joke to start the week.

As we get closer to a new year and get ready for some more comedy shows in Florida, Israel, and other locations,we're building a collection of jokes from our audiences. But until we have a backlog of these home grown jokes, we'll continue to pick and choose the funniest (and cleanest) jokes we can find from the large inventory of Old Jews Telling Jokes.

Today's joke teller is Lou Charloff, a 92-year-old retired actor. Lou starts off his joke this way:

The strongman was doing his act. He had a chain around his chest and smashed it, just extending his muscles...

And in the climax of his act, he took a lemon, an ordinary lemon in his right hand and a glass in his left hand. And then...

Enjoy!
