A Joke to Start the Week - "Good Genes"

During our week of Jewish humor lectures and comedy programs at the Berkshire Hills Eisenberg Adult Vacation Center, we shared the role of guest lecturer with Mark Levy, a California-based performer and teacher of Jewish music for 30 years at temples, synagogues, JCCs, elder hostels and other Jewish groups.

Mark's classes and lecture topics include Fiddlers on the Stage! - Ten Jewish Violinists, Music of the Bible, Klezmer 101, The Classics from Rossi to Bernstein, Songs of the Jewish Labor Movement, and A Century of Jewish Humor in America.

We got Mark to sit on the lawn next to Lake Copake and tell us some of his favorite jokes. We captured a few and we've been sharing them with you.

Here's the setup for today's joke: A guy goes to the doctor and gets some tests done. The doctor comes out with a chart in about 45 minutes. And then...

Enjoy!
