A Capuchin monk and a Jew walk into a bar; a joke from 1837.

Okay, maybe there was no bar. From Fraser's Magazine.

It is necessary to read about Saint Ursula.

    I don't find the joke funny at all. Have tastes changed, or is it just a bad joke?

    I agree. I was about to write the same thing. Not really funny -- but interesting historical find as usual. Thank you
