David's Israel Adventure

This blog will chronicle the adventures of me, David Weinfeld, as an Otzma fellow in Israel, from August 21st, 2005 to May 29th, 2006. I hope this is as exciting for you as it is for me (though that would be a tad bizarre, now wouldn't it?).

Mystical Jewish Pizza

A bunch of us ventured to a local kabbalah house tonight, enticed by free an offer of free pizza. For free food, I will do just aobut anything: wear a red bracelet, worship Madonna, you name it. Indeed, I secretly hoped that Madonna, aka Esther, was actually funding the pizza we ate. After the pizzza, we listened to a nice, well-intentioned kabbalist deliver the most anti-intellectual talk in the history of western civilization. Ok, I exaggerate. But my brain sort of shuts off when people look for these bizarre coincidences in the Torah to explain everything. When he mentioned "choose your own adventure" books, I was really lost. But it was brief, and painless, and he was so nice and smiley and gave us free pizza that I didn't really mind.

I nearly died laughing when I read the Choose Your Own Adventure line. Great to see you're having a good time, buddy. Harvard misses you, my hillarious friend.

Kapla.
