“My mother made me go to the mikvah before my wedding, so I show up at this old dingy hole in the ground in the basement of our synagogue that reminded me of the pool at the Y and I…
So I was under the influence last Saturday night when I had an epiphany, I’ve never had an “under the influence” related epiphany, mostly because I rarely become under any influence, besides that of a very good speaker. So I’m…
Rabbi Sara Hurwitz is the first woman to be ordained as an orthodox Rabbi, this was done by Rabbi Avi Weiss in Riverdale – which most of the frum people I know view as a non-orthodox Rabbi. I don’t even…
The following video was made in homage to the post I wrote sometime back about how picking up fallen change may make Jews look cheap. Are Jews cheap? I think the stereotype probably started because we were barred from owning…
I wrote this post last night and just this morning I received word that a flight was diverted from New York to Philly because some kid decided to whip out his tefillin, and some folks thought it was a bomb.…
I always thought other wise, but here you have a bunch of Jewish women talking about hot Jewish women are.
Reading your blogs has given me confidence that you may be able to help in our logistical dilemma of where the hell we are supposed to be normal frum Jews amongst communities filled with such difficult, boring and materialistic people.…
I was just interviewed on the blog Heeb ‘n Vegan. Michael Croland, who runs the site, managed to get a lot out of me in very little space — we talk about Muslim punk music, my novel Never Mind the…
And the Jews had light, and happiness, and joy and honor. Yes, we had all those things and more when President Jimmy Carter sheepishly apologized for insulting our sensibilities and for having the chutzpah to voice his very own perspective…
Well the dude from Ma Nishtana blog hates it so much he made what seems to be the funniest video on the topic I have ever seen.
Walking down the street in Los Angeles, a little blond seven-year-old Jewish girl sees a black Orthodox Jewish man in a black suit, black hat, white shirt and tzitzit flying in the wind. “Wow, that’s weird,” she says to her…
I know this video is kind of belated, but definitely not outdated, food will never become outdated because we need it to survive. This years kosherfest was definitely not as good as last years – mostly because the civilians found…
My brother wants to open a Moishe House in Boulder, Colorado – so he made this video as part of the application process, I just hope they don’t deduct points for being religious. From what I understand the only fully…
For most folks there is no connection between humor and the Holocaust, but it seems to be becoming more widely accepted. The Producers is hilarious and it came out in 1968 – only 23 years after the camps were liberated,…
By now if you are hooked into the internet and have someone who is into shameless self promotion in honor of receiving a $25,000 grant you have probably heard about the UJC Jewish Community Heroes project, in which you can…
By Schwartzie While the title of the movie sounds promising enough, the documentary film “Jewish Ritual Murder Revisited” is ultimately a let-down, as director Mark Farrell inexplicably bungles what should have been a sure-fire hit. In the documentary, Farrell sets…
By Vicki Boykis I play with the idea of making aliyah from time to time, much like kids play with Legos, abandon them, then pick them up, then tear their heads off. But, I’m not religious and plus I was…

I went into a lot of churches in Spain, but not once did I think I was entering a house of worship – to me they were just huge cool looking museums. Then I posted the following video (see below)…
By far my favorite activity to do in Jerusalem is people watch, and my favorite people to watch are Baal Teshuvas. For many BT’s it is their first taste of Judaism and the place in which they ultimately drink the…
For those of you who don’t know, I wasn’t flown to Israel to perform at a comedy club in Jerusalem, I am just not that good, I was flown to Israel to participate in the ROI Summit which is a…
I bid good bye to my friend Josh at Kikar Shabbat, we had expected some riots, but there were none and we both turned toward home, let down by the seemingly non-violence of the Charedim. I walked toward the Beis…
