Little Itzik Goldshmit from Kibbutz Kfar Giladi in Israel was visiting his American cousin who lived in Florida. One day a farmer was driving along the road with a load of fertilizer. Itzik saw him and asked, “What do you have in your truck?”
“Fertilizer,” the farmer replied.
“What are you going to do with it?” asked little Itzik.
“Put it on strawberries,” answered the farmer.
“Back in my kibbutz,” Itzik advised, “We put sugar and cream on ours.”

Dave and Mike, both in their 90’s, had played professional baseball together and, after they retired, had remained close friends. Dave suddenly fell deathly ill. Mike visited Dave on his deathbed. After they talked a while and it became obvious that Dave had only a few more minutes to live, Mike said, “Listen old friend. After you die, try and get a message back to me. I want to know if there’s baseball in heaven.”
With his dying breath, Dave whispers, “If God permits, I’ll do my best to get you an answer.”
A few days after Dave died, Mike is sleeping when he hears Dave’s voice.
Dave says, “Mike, I’ve got good news and bad news. The good news is, yes, there IS baseball in heaven. The bad news is, you’re scheduled to pitch the top half of tomorrow’s double-header.”
