Dr. Pepper–
Your question reminded me of the following joke (copied from another site):
The first 3-man space shuttle came splashing down from the moon and the ship the U.S.S. Seagull picked up the capsule…
The first man who got out of the capsule was Protestant. His minister asked him, “How was it, my son?” The Protestant astronaut answered with a big healthy smile, “It was truly a great experience to see the sun rise and set from space.”
The second man was Catholic, and when he emerged from the capsule his priest blessed him and asked him, “How was it?” He replied, “It was fabulous, Father! Imagine, taking a trip around the world in an hour and a half.”
The third man was Jewish and with great effort left the space ship. He was still huffing and puffing as his Rabbi came up to him and asked, “Nu, what happened? The other two astronauts came out composed and refreshed – and you, nu?”
The Jewish astronaut answered, breathing heavily…
“Every 90 minutes… shacharit, mincha, ma’ariv… shacharit, mincha, ma’ariv…”

I thought all of the ideas posted here we pretty good.
A better response to someone who took the time to come up with a suggestion and post it – even if it’s one you already thought of and/or was already used – might be:
– “thank you, but that one’s already been done”.
– “thank you”.
