Did you hear the one about the guy who was installing all the fittings for a
new block of flats across the road from the Shul?

He went to the local mezuzah shop and discovered that they were sold out.
Next he tried the general Judaica store, only to find that they too had no
mezuzot in stock. After walking all over town, the man happened upon a small
shop in the middle of Chinatown, with hundreds of mezuzot in the window. He
walked in and asked in his thick Yiddish accent for 120.
"I'm sorry sir," said the shopowner, "but we don't serve Jews."
