Greenfield's expose is brilliant and riveting, raw and disturbing . .
.
Rarely has such a modern writer, with pen and ear so finely-tuned to
post-modern New York, written such a classic work. . . A must-read for all
who want to understand the 21st century.
- Peter (Ephraim) Friedman, vicarious
wanna-be

From Seth Galena:
- You run up 5 flights of stairs only to realize the minyan is on the
first floor this week (happened to me)
- Is it AskWendyD @ hotmail or yahoo?
- The youth leadership committee should be made to wear top hats.
- To be gabbai, start from the bottom (as kiddushguy) then work your way
up, or just get into party promoting
- Like the Rabbi, your minhag is to sit for beginning of sermons, stand
for kiddush.
- You spend all of laining not analyzing the parsha, but rather the Rabbi
Soleivechick Dvar Torah
- You miss getting flyers about Saturday night parties from the past
Gabbaim
- All the shul's a stage....and we are just daveners in it. (1st floor)
- Trivia: where is the pool in JC?
- Ain MJE cholent, Ain Minyan
- I want to see a Young Professional Minayn (OZ) vs. Parrallel Minyan
(JC) Hardcore Brocha Bee, or gabbai tagteam wrestling match. Now
that I would pay 365 buck for.
