Benny and Max meet one Shabbat while parking their cars down a little road out of sight of the synagogue. As they begin their five-minute walk to the synagogue, Benny says, “I’m glad I’ve bumped into you, Max. It’s my parents’ golden wedding anniversary next week and I would like you to come to the party.”
“It’s nice of you to ask,” replies Max, “Thank you, yes, I will come.”
“And if you have some friends you can bring with you, please do so,” says Benny. “It will be nice to have a lot of people at the party.”
“Yes. I can bring Hymie Cohen and Melvyn Levy.”
“Great, but don’t forget to remind them to bring something gold!”
“OK.”
So Max brought a goldfish, Hymie Cohen brought a jar of Gold Blend coffee and Melvyn Levy brought Howard Goldberg.
