Passover humor

Greetings.

Jewish date:  20 Nisan 5769.

Today’s holidays:  Ḥol hamMo‘edh Pesaḥ, day 5 of the ‘Omer.

Today’s quasi-holidays:  Don Quixote Day (invented by me), International Moment of Laughter Day (invented by somebody else).

Worthy causes of the day:  “Help Pass a Strong Global Warming Bill” and “We Want More Internet, Not Less”.

Today’s news and commentary:  “New chemicals for eco-friendly paints and lubricants”:  Who knew olestra would actually be useful for something other than causing gastrointestinal problems?  (NOTE:  It is not a slow news day.  I spent too much time last night working on a review of The God Delusion.)

Today’s weird thing is “Jacob Richman's Humor Pages - Passover”, which should have enough weirdness to keep almost anyone busy.  Enjoy and share the weirdness.

Aaron
