I know there is a sterotypically nasally, smart, urban jewish persona seen in media, like Sandler or Adam Goldberg or maybe Sarah Silverman, but all jews aren't like that and that persona itself doesn't mean someone's a jew--c.f. Penny Marshall.

Remember the giant pink bunny in Italy that we talked about a few years ago? (It resulted in a COMM.) Here you can see it in a photo from space: [link]

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Sadly, I don't like wine.

And for some reason I suspect Jesus would be kind of a buzzkill. In a nice way and all, but still.

Yeah, I like the stuff, but I'm not sure there is cilantro in Cinicnnati much less Cincinnati chili.
