Default Re: Prayer at the Office Xmas Party

Read out part of the jewish Hallel, completely deadpan:

Psalm 114

"1 When Israel went forth out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of foreign language; 2 Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion. 3 The sea saw it, and fled. The Jordan was driven back. 4 The mountains skipped like rams, the little hills like lambs. 5 What was it, you sea, that you fled? You Jordan, that you turned back? 6 You mountains, that you skipped like rams; you little hills, like lambs? 7 Tremble, you earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob, 8 who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a spring of waters."

Psalm 115

"12 The Lord remembers us. He will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel. He will bless the house of Aaron. 13 He will bless those who fear the Lord, both small and great. 14 May the Lord increase you more and more, you and your children. 15 Blessed are you by the Lord, who made heaven and earth. 16 The heavens are the heavens of the Lord; but the earth has he given to the children of men. 17 The dead don’t praise God, neither any who go down into silence; 18 But we will bless God, from this time forth and forevermore. Halleluyah!"


Then at the end if they question it act like you thought it was obvious you were jewish and you thought they all were too. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
