Q: What is the best way to find Lester when he is missing?
A: Ask Robert Frost, he’s always going on about the road Les traveled by.
Q: What does this have to do with a Rabbi?
A: Edwardo Michelangelo Vitagiliano is a 61 year old native of Fitchburg. He went to Fitchburg High School graduating with the same class as Mike Barnicle. He went to Vietnam and still never talks of it. That is where he picked up the nickname “The Rabbi”. From that day on, only his late Mother and his wife of almost 40 years call him by his actual name. He moved to Florida about 6 years ago and currently lives there.
He known for his knowledge of sports, he love of warm weather, and his absolutely horrible jokes. He will tell a joke that is horrendous and then pump is fist saying either “I’ve got a million of them.” (He Does) or “I’ve still got it.” (Unfortunately he does). The people who know and love him after decades of these jokes refer to any joke that is sufficiently bad as a “Rabbi” joke, that is a joke that would be told by the Ed “the Rabbi” Vitagiliano.
So when you see the “Rabbi Joke” label beware the joke that follows is likely very bad.
Update: Actually his wife is 61. He is older but I don’t know his exact age.
