An American, an Englishman and an Israeli were sitting drinking in a bar and indulging in a bit of boasting about their ancestors.
The American boasted, “One of my ancestors signed the Declaration of Independence way back in 1776”.
The Englishman spoke up and boasted, “That’s nothing. One of my ancestors was present at the signing of the Magna Carta in 1215”.
The Israeli waited for a minute, then went in for the kill, “You think that is something to boast about? Just remember that one of my ancestors drew up the Ten Commandments”.
