Rabbi in space

(ethnic, smirk)

(Borrowed shamelessly from a friend:)

Following the marginally successful Teacher In Space program, NASA decided
to send up some religious leaders.  So up go a priest and a rabbi on the
Atlantis.  After a few days in orbit they're back and in a news conference
they're asked how it was.

"It was simply magnificent!" exclaimed the priest "God's creation in its
full glory."

"And you, rabbi" asked one of the reporters.

"Oy, I tell you it vas just awful."

"Well, why?"

"You vouldn't believe it, every five minutes it's de same ting:  on vith the
 tfillin, off with the tfillin, on with the tfillin, off with the tfillin..."


(For those of you with puzzled looks:
Tfillin are sacred prayer scrolls in special leather holders. Each morning
Every Jewish man is supposed to put them on his forehead and arm as part of
morning prayer.)

(From the "Rest" of RHF)
