OK a jewish joke then funny or not?!
Question: An elderly Jewish man was traveling by slow train from Minsk to Pinsk. At one of the frequent stops he felt hungry and bought a large salt herring. At the same stop a young Russian boy entered into his compartment and as the old man slowly munched his herring the young boy began to tease him.
He said " You Jews have a reputation of being so smart. How come that you are all so clever?" The old man said to him in answer " Since you are such a polite young man and asked so nicely, I will tell you the secret, if you promise not to tell a soul" The boy swore by all that was holy that he would never reveal such a precious secret, so the old man finally told him " We Jews are so smart because we eat the head of the salt herring" The boy was really impressed and said " I would like to get smart right away, I see you still have the head of the herring you have just eaten, would you sell it to me? "
The old man was reluctant, but in the end he gave in and said " All right, all right, you can have it for a ruble " Well, a ruble was a high price, but the boy could not wait to get started, so he paid and began to eat the head of the herring. When he was nearly finished he shouted, " Wait a minute, I saw you by that whole herring for just ten kopecks and I paid you ten times that just for the head! "
The old Jew smiled back at him and said "You see, it is begging to work already"

I tell the same joke, with "whitefish" in place of "herring," all the time. It's a classic!
Okay, now here's one for you: A Jew walks into a kosher chinese restaurant. The waiter, who is Chinese, approaches the Jew, and much to this customer's surprise, takes his order in Yiddish. The waiter brings him his food, even comes back to ensure that the Jew has everything he needs, shmoozes (chats) with him a little. So anyway, the guy finishes his meal, gets the check, and walks over to the register to pay for his meal. Behind the register is the restaurant's owner, a short, stout man, also Jewish. The owner asks the customer: "So, how was it?" The customer says: "It was gevaldik. Seriously, the food was wonderful, but what was really amazing was that waiter. Where on earth did you find a Chinese waiter that speaks Yiddish?" To which the restaurant's owner replies: "SHHH! Not so loud! He thinks we're teaching him English!"
