An old
Jew and a young Jew are travelling on the train. The young Jew asks:
"Excuse me, what time is it?"
The old Jew does not answer.
"Excuse
me, sir, what time is it?"
The old Jew keeps silent.
"Sir, I'm asking you what time is it. Why don't you answer?!"
"Son,
the
next stop is the last on this route. I don't know you, so you must be a
stranger. If I answer you now, I'll have to invite you to my home.
You're handsome, and I have a beautiful daughter. You will both fall in
love and you will want to get married. Tell me, why would I
need a son-in-law who can't even afford a watch?"
