After seeing the excellent movie Sideways, I thought, "I would love to wrap my arms around that movie!" and I thought, "I'd love to stick my nose into a Pinot." Unfortunately my mom and dad don't really drink and Jonah had a cold so I was left to jones for Pinot all by my deprived self...that is until last night when a certain someone surprised me with a very special Pinot and feast!!
Jonah, you and Pinot are the best.
Coo stuff. Looks yummy if I weren't following the clean food laws of the Torah. I am not Hasidim but I like that shit. You should really really visit a Hassidic persons house. Do like I did. I went to their synagogue on a Friday evening service. Then they will not let you go home without being invited to come to their house. The couple I went to wanted me to sleep over, I don't think because they were swinging or anything, just so my wife and I would break the Sabbath. Anyway it is really cool. And they are very warm and inviting ppl. REally.
Anyway I apologize for the long post. But can u post a link to how you started your blog. I tried teh IBLOG thing and they have limited amounts of templates. I don't wanna bit off of Chelsea's which is the only other cool one in there (NY black). I would appreciate.
Edit to original post.
So that we would NOT break the Sabbath. We didn't stay by the way (I was a poet and I did not know it).
By now everyone has read the papers so it should come as no suprise, due to the success of "Sideways" Pinot sales have skyrocked. Mhere as Merlot...let us say ...not as much.
Posted by: me of me inc. at January 3, 2005 9:59 AMCan anyone help Mr. Incredible get a blog? I think his views are facinating and coherent. However, you don't have to go to a Hassidic home to get a sense of their warmth. All you need to do is rent "The Chosen" staring Robbie Benson as the Hassidic Danny Saunders. After "One on One" it is clearly Benson's best work. Why go to the trouble of meeting people, when you can sit home and watch TV?
Posted by: Bob at January 3, 2005 12:20 PMI sensed a sardonic tone in that "coherent comment." *Sniffles* <Was that effeminate <Is the term effeminate fundamentally misogynistic <Am I too self-aware <When self-aware of usually unexpressed prejudiced are you beyond it, or are you prejudiced for noticing it exists.
I am Dominican Lou in Chelsea's blog. Get off your couch and meet a real live Hasidim.
Posted by: Mr. Incredible at January 3, 2005 2:34 PMI live in NY, how could I not meet Hasidim? If you don't go to Fortunoffs where do you buy your diamonds? Ziggy Shanz baby!! In fact, very often the Hasidim pull over their RV and ask me if I'm observant. When I give them that goyum(?is that spelled right?) look, they wish me a good day and move on to the next "could be jewish" guy. I still think you should watch "The Chosen." Rod Stieger was very good in it.
