I need some new material.
Here's one of mine, but my wife will probably kill me if I use it again:
One year we had a blind gentleman at our seder. While we were passing the matzoh around the table, he ran his fingers over it and said

(12,008 posts)I've only ever been to one seder dinner, but it was fantastic - my favourite holiday I've been involved with. Scripted drinking is the best. It was hosted by a couple I went to college with. They each invited a gentile friend, and knowing that, my joke was to say when I showed up, "I haven't been to schul in years."

"You, Moses, must write the Environmental Impact Statement."
