Six retired Jewish men were playing poker in the Day Care Center when Levine
loses $500 on a single hand, clutches his chest and drops dead at the table.
Showing respect for their fallen comrade, the other five continued playing
standing up.
Finkelstein looks around and asks, "So, who is going to tell his wife"?
They draw straws. Goldberg picks the short one. They tell him to use good
judgment, be discreet and be gentle. Don't make a bad situation any worse.
"Discreet"? he asked. "I'll be the most discreet person you will ever
meet. Discretion is my middle name. Just leave it to me."
So, Goldberg goes over to the Levine's bungalow and knocks on the door.
The wife answers and asks what he wants. Goldberg declares, "Your husband
just lost $500 and is afraid to come home."
"Tell him to drop dead!" she yells.
"I'll go tell him," says Goldberg.
