A Jewish Mother’s Answering Machine:-ok

If you want lox and eggs, dial 1;
If you want knishes press 2;
If you want chicken soup, press 3;
If you want matzoh balls with the soup, press 4;
If you want to know how am I feeling, you are calling the Wrong Number since NOBODY ever asks me how I am feeling. Who knows I could even be dead by now.

Thank you so much for this writing. I liked it very very much. It inspired me to write my own version of an answering machine message. It brought to mind many friends who have had to use answering machines for years, because they are not allowed to pick up the phone. Come read my answering machine message, and add a note if you can. peace on your journey.

(1) and (2) and how are you feeling anyhow??? 😀

RYN: the moldy bible was bought in Austrailia. By the time I finish calling there and shipping back and forth and all that I would have spent what it would cost to buy a new one myself.
