i meant to stick this in weeks ago

but never did, and now it's almost shabbat and i feel sorta bad leaving off like this with such a troublesome statement, but anyway:

A guy here at the Yeshiva told me that my eyes have "that Israeli look." Further inquiry revealed that statement to indicate "a bright sparkling soul light which has been brutalized and crushed."

Felt like I needed to share that.

On Sunday I am going to yet another wedding, a religious one this time, and then moving to Jerusalem. Or perhaps in the other order.

Have a great weekend, and stay in touch.

I had an austrian waiter (in Austria) tell me and my dining companions that we had a "Jewish Look". Is that the same thing?

He then said (in a thick accent), "You will love the boiled meat in broth, sorry we have no matzoh ball soup." The he and his coworkers laughed like the bad guys in Raiders of the Lost Ark. Kinda creepy.

To tell the truth, I wasn't really offended. It was just an observation. Besides, the people we were dining with looked really jewish :)

And anyway, Jason, aren't you the guy who's got a love of shredded meat in the family?
