I taught science and history at a yeshiva hs in Seattle for many years. Hilarity ensued. Over and over. But a lot of that shit they get behind ain't funny at all.
Good rabbi story! I grew up going to a reformed temple in Los Angeles. Our rabbi never mentioned Larry David, but this was way before Seinfeld, so that would've been a weird one to name check. One day, flipping around some local cable channels, I saw our rabbi on TV. That was the first and only time I saw a rabbi doing the televangelist thing. In unrelated news, I became an agnostic, cultural Jew shortly after my Bar Mitzvah.

I sure could relate to this.

It's like DARE for yids. But less funny.
