Two Jewish businessmen meet in a restaurant for a lunch suggested by one of them.
The first says, "I have a good deal for you. When I was in Florida, I went to the town where the circus stays during the winter. I happened to pick up an elephant. I could let you have it for a thousand dollars."
The other businessman sipped his martini and said, "What are you, crazy? What am I going to do with an elephant? I live in a condo. I barely have room for my furniture. I can't even squeeze in an end table. So I'm going to buy an elephant?"
The first businessman said, "I could let you have three of them for two grand."
"Oh," said the other, "now you're talking!"
