Wheels of life

This funny in a way, but also so true and in a sence sad hey?

The Taxman

At the end of the tax year, the Tax Office sent an inspector to audit the books of a synagogue.

While he was checking the books he turned to the Rabbi and said: "I notice you buy a lot of candles. What do you do with the candle drippings?"
"Good question," noted the Rabbi. "We save them up and send them back to the candle makers, and every now and then they send us a free box of candles."

"Oh," replied the auditor, somewhat disappointed that his unusual question had a practical answer.

But on he went, in his obnoxious way: "What about all these biscuit purchases? What do you do with the crumbs?"

"Ah, yes," replied the Rabbi, realising that the inspector was trying to trap him with an unanswerable question.

"We collect them and send them back to the manufacturers, and every now and then they send a free box of holy biscuits."

"I see!" replied the auditor, thinking hard about how he could fluster the know-it-all Rabbi.

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

"Here, too, we do not waste," answered the Rabbi. "What we do is save up all the foreskins and send them to the Tax Office, and about once a year they send us a complete dick."

A good wife can bring balance to your life!

Capetown robbery

A man with a gun went into a bank and demanded their money. Once he
was given the money, he turned to a customer and asked, "Did you see me
rob this bank?"

The man replied, "Yes sir, I did."

The robber then shot him in the temple, killing him instantly.

He then turned to a coloured couple standing next to him and asked the
man, "Did you see me rob this bank?"

The man replied, "Nay meneer ek hettie gasien nie, maar my vrou het!"

Piet Schaap-may you rest in peace

I have to apologize for not updating my blog for so long.The reason for this is that my father passed away on the 10th of April and that’s why I neglected my blog.My family and I lost a very dear and kind man.We will sadly miss him as he was well respected by us and everyone that had any dealings with him.What a positive man he was,although he had some setbacks medically he was never down and always had a very nice positive attitude and a warm personality and would go out of his way to assist anyone in need.My father Piet Schaapwas born on the 10-08-1934 and grew up on a farm called Rooirivier in the Klein Karoo in the Uniondale district .After matriculating he joined the South African Police in 1956-1958 and then resigned from the police and then joined South African Airways (Suid Afrikaanse Lugdiens) in 1959.In 1969 he met my mother Juliana and they got married and a year later I was born.My father enjoyed his work and was very dedicated and passionate about his work at the South African Airways and served them from 1959 to 1993.I still remember the good old days when he used to take our family all over the world.I never in my life ever met a more interesting person like my dad a good sense of humour and well informed about everything.Rugby was a big passion of my dad,A Western province supporter like me and he never missed rugby,cricket etc etc on tv.I would like to thanks Joppie Niemand and all the ex-South African Airways crew and Cockpit (Orange tailers) www.orangetail.co.za for their support in the difficult time our family is going through.A further thanks to all the staff at the Glynwood life hospital where my dad spent the last 11 days of his life in the icu and a great thank you to Sue and the icu staff as well for the manner in which you took care of him and for the manner in which you treated our family.A further thanks to friends and family for all your support in this time and for uplifting me,my sister Bernie and my mom Julie.We will surely miss him a lot and may he live forever in our minds and hearts.My father was an inspiration for me and a good role model and I will always try to be like him,although it wont be easy to fill his shoes.Hope you will forgive me for not updating my blog in this time but im sure you would understand.

Kind regards
