a purim tzetel...

...the following is the note we enclosed in our mishloach manoth this year. can you guess what we put in it? (answer will be posted after the comments on this one hits 30. that's right, 30.

"Shivas Haminim"

7 sins, no sons, of Haman - minim (apikorsim) they were, and might not have been with a little more "CHIVAS". The other 2 sons were rishoim of a different "kind". NinE? Nyne! He had ten. Ve chose the theme of 7 (7 minim, 7 sons, 7 items in the bag) because today - the day of purim - is 7 days since the first day of the rest of your life if you count from the end of Moshe Rabbeinu's and add 70*70*0.7 years. Elsewhere, speaking of our holy leader, is a great mitzvah. Hehehe - get it? THAT'S IT. NOPE. Furthermore, his brother lit the LAMP which later was the center of the miracle of burning 7 days of oil on 1 - a GREAT event that never happened, certainly not on this day (not unless you count TAXI"S charging 7k for every one.

When all is said and done, you've said too much and gotten lazy.
HAPPY POORIM ;-)
p.s. only read this when the drunk start here & it will make more sense.
