Larry Joseph of radio station WBAI, N.Y.C, told this joke on Garrison Keillor's show today:
CNN heard of a Jew in Israel who prayed at the Western Wall every single day for years. A broadcaster caught the man as he was finishing one day, introduced herself, and said,
"I'm from CNN. We've heard you are here every day. May I ask your name?"
"Abe Goldberg."
"How long have you been praying here?"
"60 years."
"60 years! What do you pray for?"
"I pray for peace among Christians, Jews, and Muslims and among all people of the world. I pray for politicians to listen, understand, be generous, and find a way to live together. I pray that everyone stop, look around, appreciate this wonderful world, and enjoy what God has given us."
"And, Mr. Goldberg, how do you feel about it after all these years?"
"It's like talking to a wall!"
