Yaphet Koto as Idi Amin puts that one over the top.<br /><br />Also, like your Rosh HaShanah story. So I'm in Queens, late 90s. It's a Wednesday morning in February, maybe March. I'm going to work, walking to the N train, and here comes this guy. Bedraggled one might say. Something all smudged on his forehead. Musta been a rough night I think to myself. Three steps later, a little old lady comes walking by. Smudge on her forehead. What the? Were they at the same party? Here comes another. And another. Am I missing something? And, oh, wait, it's a cross. Ash Wednesday. This just wasn't anything you saw growing up in the west coast 'burbs. <br /><br />L'Shanah Tovah<br />Danny from BellevueAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349290550527925310.post-35866532457599725432011-09-29T15:55:50.519-04:002011-09-29T15:55:50.519-04:00Such a mensch!Such a mensch!Patsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02840629057159581688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349290550527925310.post-17926507992238377442011-09-29T12:15:36.736-04:002011-09-29T12:15:36.736-04:00Hallock- Every Jewish girl should date a nice goy ...Hallock- Every Jewish girl should date a nice goy boy and every nice goy boy should date Jewish girl. Which reminds me, do you the difference between a Jewish American Princess and Jello? Jello moves when you eat it. <br /><br />Mr Lonely- OK.<br /><br />Jeff P. - I wish we could'a been at Entebbe but you would have been what? Seven or eight?<br /><br />MBN- So many stories.

A few years ago I was in the dark about the Rosh HaShanah, but have been dating a Jewish woman for the past year and have been opened up to an entire world of ethno-religious rituals—and delicious food like Russ & Daughters.Hallockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18372342906118935109noreply@blogger.com
