A minister, a priest, and a rabbi were sitting around a dinner table, having after-dinner coffee and arguing about religion. Suddenly, the Angel of the Lord appears and says, "I will grant one wish to each of you!"
The minister jumps to his feet and shouts, "I wish for the destruction of all Catholics!"
Then the priest jumps to his feet and shouts, "Well, I wish for the destruction of all Protestants!"
The angel turns to the rabbi and says, "What do you wish for, rabbi?"
And the rabbi says, "Well, if you're going to grant their wishes, then I'll just have another cup of coffee!"
A lecture about English
A linguistics professor was lecturing to his English class one day. "In English," he said, "A double negative forms a positive. In some languages, though, such as Russian, a double negative is still a negative. However, there is no language wherein a double positive can form a negative."
A voice from the back of the room piped up, "Yeah, right."
