Sentence of The Month: April
Got a winning response to my Passover post from 'RIK (who, being the introvert type, chooses to reply via email rather than comment on the blog itself; which deprives the blogoshpere from some very enjoyable comments).
He checked with me that the Seder is indeed tonight, and I reprimanded him that even The JohnnyB is a better Jew than he is.
Why's that funny? 'cause The JohnnyB is anything but.
To which 'RIK responded immediately, without even blinking:

To which 'RIK responded immediately, without even blinking:
"I think that The JohnnyB must have been abandoned by his real, Jewish parents and set adrift down the Rochester River in a basket made of reeds...
Of course, I don't know what my excuse is!!"
And why's that funny? 'cause it's the traditional story of Moses, who was set adrift on the Nile river in a basket and found by Pharaoh's daughter.
Pfffffffffffffrrrrrrrrrrrr, it sucks having to explain everything to y'all.
Anyway, 'RIK's version of The JohnnyB's origins is quite intriguing, and might shed a new light on the lack of birth certificate that the INS was so upset about, as reported here.

Rochester River, y'know, the one flowing between Buffalo Lake and Syracuse Falls.
Hey, what do you know, they actually do refer to Rochester River in the literature.

Wow! The last two posts make me wanna run out and get a Drive-By-Circumcism or some other sort o' festive Hebraity. (Hebrewity? Zionisticality??? {-;)
la Chaim!
.. and may the Bunny be Fluffy for Passover for all y'all!
"make me wanna run out and get a Drive-By-Circumcism"
MichaelBains, that brings some painful images to one's mind.
Why don't you, instead, like, get a Hebrew teaching book? Less bloody, more beneficial.
I'd call it Jewishity.
...get a Hebrew teaching book?
Hhmmm... Been there. Done that. Well, same for the whole C-bit as well, but enough of that topic... :-)
Jewishity??? You sure about that one? Jewicity maybe?
Awwww... ne'ermind. I'm stickin' with simple silliness for you Nava dear.
How was Elijah, btw? Did he make it to Seder? Hope all went well and wonderfully, regardless.
So, you went for the Drive-thru C-bit... Cool. This opens such a vast field for intriguing debates, but we won't go there.
So - between this and giving Hebrew a chance - are you, may I ask, like, Hmm... y'know, one'f us long-nosed peoples?
Elijah says Hi.
I was going to comment on my picture, but don't want my name associated with the whole drive by circumcism question...
So there, I'm not commenting.
