When you ask people which side they believe will triumph, there’s no equivocating. But last weekend, in a debate unlike any you’ve ever witnessed, when the final tally was announced?

Thanks for reading and commenting.
Ah, well. I guess its back to Corky and Lennys for some beef and latkes to drown my sorrows. Great hat. And what’s wrong with Palmreader’s Digest? If there was such a thing I would sell it in my store.
Ok ok – Palmreaders Digest – on my next year’s wishlist for Chanuka. I did get my palm read two years ago on my birthday. I forget what they told me. Probably that I’d lose my memory.
[...] the whole…well…Megillah as they say. (For anyone who remembers that I participated in a Latke v. Hamantashen debate at Chanuka time last December, I represented the Hamantash and won – it’s a triagular [...]
