I hope on Jewish people are offended by this.... 
Back in the cowboy days, a westbound wagon train was lost and low on food.
No other humans had been seen for days... and then they saw an old Jewish Rabbi, sitting beneath a tree.
The leader rushed to him and said, "We're lost and running out of food. Is there someplace ahead where we can get food?"
"Vell, I tink so, " the old man said, "But I vouldn't go up dat hill, und down de udder side. Somevun tole me you'd run into a big bacon tree."
"A bacon tree?" asked the wagon train leader.
"Yah, ah bacon tree. Vould I lie? .... Trust me, I vouldn't go dere."
The leader goes back and tells his people what the Rabbi said.
"So why did he say not to go there?" some pioneers asked. "Oh, you know those Jewish people -- they don't eat bacon."
So the wagon train goes up the hill and down the other side.
Suddenly, Indians are attacking from everywhere, arrows flying, loud war whoops coming from every direction.
The pioneers fight valiently and manage to just barely escape with thier lives.
Once they reach safety the leader searches and once again finds the the old Jewish man.
The injured man starts shouting, "You fool! You almost sent us to our deaths! We went over the hill but there was no bacon tree like you said.
Just hundreds of Indians, who almost killed us."
The old Jewish man holds up his hand and says, "Oy..... vait a minute."
He then gets out an English-Yiddish dictionary,and begins thumbing through.
"Oy Gevalt, I made myself such ah big mishtake! It vuzn't a bacon tree............
It vuz a ham bush!"
