Back at ya Matt! I'm going to a Mardi Gras party next week. Still trying to put together an outfit but I got these slick "mask" stickers for my face. Here I feel like showing them off:

Okay since we are talking Jewish here I will share a little story. I was a fairly new employee at a job several years ago. One day the owner comes into the employee break room and starts bashing his client. Saying things like; "She is such a jew - always looking for a discount" and several other derogatory comments about Jews. He suddenly notices I am in there and says "Gee, I hope you aren't Jewish?"
Usually I fumble for words or think later what I should have said. But this time my answer was perfect! I looked him straight in the eye and very deadpan replied "Baruch atah Adonai elohaynu melech ha'olam boray pri hagafen." He turned and ran out of the room!!!
The other funny part of the story is that is the only Hebrew that I know but he sure didn't know that!
Beautiful....job well done & I hope you got a raise!
Nope - no raise he just avoided me for a month which I found very amusing. But I sure got a lot of satisfaction for putting him in his place! 
I hate stereotyping. Everyone likes a discount, no matter what race or religion they are.

Hahahaha Mooks, you can cut to the chase....boray pri hagafen, the blessing over the wine is all the Hebrew you need. Ahh, that sweet Mogen David.
I loved charoses at Passover; the chopped up apples, pecans, cinnamon, and sweet wine. Now that I don't drink anymore, I wonder if I will make it with wine this year.
Oy, I miss my little Yiddishe mama, too. She was only 4'10 but she could belt out a song like nobody's business.
I forgot about Mogen David! If I remember that was really really sweet?
I never had charoses but it sounds yummy. Make it with non-alcoholic wine and invite me over. I am soooo proud of your abstinence Sandy!!! You are doing incredibly and are so strong. You must be very proud of your accomplishment yourself! BTW, you prob know this but I read last night that there are tons of on-line support groups. Maybe you could find one if you need to that is more to your liking.

OMG, I have to tell you what happened last night. I was waxing mine and my daughter's legs and knocked over the wax pot! What a friggen' mess!!! There was wax on the wall, floor, table, chairs.......Don't know if any of you are familiar with wax but about the only thing that takes it off is pure acetone. I was screaming and swearing so bad I'm ashamed of myself. But what a nightmare. An hour project turned into four hours of cleaning. Plus I now have one smooth leg and one hairy leg So now I have to go buy more wax and finish the job. Hopefully without trashing the house again!

Oh Mook, that really sucks! I couldn't have rescued you, but I have a can of stuff here specifically for taking gum off of surfaces...if you are going to attempt waxing again, maybe you should pick yourself up a can! It's made by Johnson's wax for professional gum removal on carpets...it freezes it instantly and it literally breaks off the stuff, but it is supposed to work on wax and other stuff too. Or maybe you should just try that new invention...a razor? Just sayin'!
Happy valentines day to everybodys!!!
hahahah! The razor is the old fashioned invention. Got a new can of wax yesterday and now have two hairless legs. Looks much better than having one of each!
Hmmm......but Mooks, one hairless leg and one hairy leg could be kind of kinky. 
OMG you guys, wax? Speaking of waxed chests, I watch this TV show 90210 just because there is a hot young guy that is always shown without his shirt! http://imgsrv.wpst.com/image/wpst/UserFiles/Image/liam from 90210.PNG
I thought we were MATURE vapers here! I like hair on my men! No like ape hair, but manly hair!
