Michael Sylvester asked "Are Jews born smart? No, Michael, we're not born smart. However, we get that way very early in life as the result of mandatory attendance at weekly classes in which we are taught how to manipulate the world monetary system, control the world media, and make a proper New York style Jewish rye bread. Alas, the latter of these is proving the most difficult to import into the hinterlands.
And if you have any trouble believing in the existence of such a cabal, all you need do is check any Chinese restaurant on Christmas Day. That's where we hold our most important conventions. I know that most gentiles believe that these gatherings are primarily held in synagogues but it's a measure of our brilliance that we conceal the true nature of these meetings by making them appear to be mere consultations over what to order on a family style Chinese menu. This location also makes it easy to spot anyone who might try to infiltrate the deliberations of brethren. The fist person who suggests ordering cow mein or chop suey (particularly if ordered as his/her own individual dish) has just exposed himself as a spy. Think of it as a modern Jewish shibboleth.
