Jack Abramoff now a Kosher pizza delivery boy
Share My, how the mighty have fallen. Jack Abramoff was our favorite conniving a-hole before Bernie Madoff had to blow him out of the water. Madoff is the Barry Bonds to Mark McGuire.

If you keep kosher, you shouldn’t worry too much. The good thing about Judaism is that everyone has selective hearing in what [...]
where’s my knishes?
Share I’m always fascinated by random Jewish references in cartoons, especially older ones. This early Betty Boop cartoon (‘Dizzy Dishes’ from 1930) boasts fairly typical animation for that time period – movement is timed to music whenever possible, lip sync mouth shapes are over exaggerated, eyes are black dots or black dots with diagonal slits [...]
