See, now, this is food-related.

So, Moe Ginsberg the tailor retires, sells his shop and decides to go  
on a Mediterranean cruise. Since he's travelling alone, he is seated  
opposite a stranger at dinner. When the soup is served, the other  
gentleman rises, bows, and says, "Bon apetit!"

Ginsberg rises, bows, and says, "Ginsberg."

Next day, same thing. The Frenchman rises at the beginning of the  
meal, says, "Bon apetit!", and Ginsberg says, "Ginsberg."

A week passes. Finally, overcome with curiosity, Ginsberg asks a  
passing steward for an explanation for all this. The steward explains  
that "Bon apetit" is a pleasant, polite salute and expression of the  
desire that one's companion enjoy his meal.

That night, when the soup is served, Ginsberg rises, bows, and says,  
"Bon apetit!"

The Frenchman rises, bows, clicks his heels and says, "Ginsberg!"



Jeez, is that the time? I have so much to do today, I really must be  
going!
