Lewis black on Yom Kippur

Kol Nidre is tomorrow so I thought this was appropriate. Gmar Chatimah Tova everyone.

1. A young Jon Stewart - I was going to post this tomorrow

Yon Kippur. Greatest Jewish holiday ever. The Jewish day of attonement. You don’t eat for one day, all your sins for the year are wiped clean. Beat that with your little “Lent.” What is Lent? Forty days of absolution. Forty days to one day. Even in sin you’re paying retail.

2. Here's a confession joke I heard:

An older priest is coaching a younger priest on the subject of confession. "Suppose a person comes in and confesses to committing adultery 3 times. You say, 'Say ten Hail Marys.' A second person comes in and confesses to committing adultery 6 times. You say,'Say twenty Hail Marys.' You understand how it works?"

The young priest says, "I think it got it." The first person to confess to him says, "I committed adultery four times." The young priest starts doing the math in his head, but gets confused by the fractions. So he says, "Um, could you go commit adultery a couple more times and then come back?"
