This has been a favorite of mine for many years... enjoy!
Every morning the Trids got up, ate breakfast, and marched over the bridge to Tridville to work.
One morning, a troll moved in under the bridge.
When the Trids tried to cross the bridge, the troll climbed up and kicked the Trids all the way back to their homes.
The Trids decided to take the day off in hopes that the troll would go away, but the next morning the troll once again climbed up onto the bridge and kicked them back to their homes.
In desperation, the Trids decided to ask their Rabbi for help.
So the next morning the Rabbi walked across the bridge several times but never saw the troll.
He went home believing the troll had indeed moved on.
When the Trids tried to cross the bridge afterward, the troll climbed up again and kicked the Trids back home.
The Rabbi returned to the bridge and called out for the troll.
When the troll appeared, the Rabbi asked why he was allowed to cross the bridge but not the Trids.
The troll replied, "Silly Rabbi, kicks are for Trids."
You know you love it!

This reminds me of the one about the frog who goes into a bank to get a loan. He speaks with the loan officer, Miss Paddywack.
She asks the frog what he will use for collateral on the loan. He asks what collateral is and she explains that it is something of value to pledge in case he doesn't replay the loan. The frog goes home to see what he has and returns with an item.
He hands her the item, but she's not sure what it is, so she goes to see the VP of loans and says, "There's a frog asking for a loan, but when I asked about his collateral, he just handed this to me and I'm not sure what it is or what I should do."
The VP simply said, "Its a knick-knack Paddywack, give the frog a loan!"
Sorry - forgot to add my name to the Knick-Knack Paddywack, joke -
Hope you enjoyed it...
