Jewish Prayer

A female CNN journalist heard about a very old Jewish man who hadbeen going to the Wailing Wall to pray, twice a day, every day, for along, long time.
 
So she went to check it out.  She went to the Wailing Wall and therehe was, walking slowly up to the holy site.
 
She watched him pray and after about 45 minutes, when he turned toleave, using a cane and moving very slowly, she approached him for aninterview .
 
'Pardon me, sir, I'm Rebecca Smith from CNN.  What's your name?
 
'Morris Fishbein,' he replied.
 
'Sir, how long have you been coming to the Wailing Wall and praying?'
 
'For about 60 years.'
 
'60 years!  That's amazing!   What do you pray for?'
 
'I pray for peace between the Christians, Jews and the Muslims.'  I prayfor all the wars and all the hatred to stop.  I pray for all our children to growup safely as responsible adults, and to love their fellow man.'
 
'How do you feel after doing this for 60 years?'
 
'Like I'm talking to a fuckin' wall.
