  1. The Internal Revenue sent one of their auditors to a synagogue.

    The auditor is doing all the checks and then turns to the Rabbi, and says, "I noticed that you buy a
    lot of candles."

    "Yes," answered the Rabbi.

    "Well, Rabbi, what do you do with the candle drippings?" he asked.

    "A good question," noted the Rabbi. "We actually save them up and when we have enough, we send them
    back to the candle maker and every now and then, they send us a free box of candles."

    "Oh," replied the auditor somewhat disappointed that his unusual question actually had a practical
    answer. So he thought he'd go on, in his obnoxious way...

    we have enough, we send them in a box back to the manufacturer and every now and then, they send a
    box of matzo balls."

    "Well, Rabbi," he went on, "what do you do with all the foreskins from the circumcisions?"

    "Yes, here too, we do not waste," answered the Rabbi. "What we do is save up all the foreskins, and
    when we have enough we actually send them to the Internal Revenue Service."

    "The IRS????" questioned the auditor in disbelief. "Ah, yes," replied the Rabbi, ...and about once a
    year, they send us a little [censored] like you"
