What a wonderful read. I'm sitting here on a bed with my girlfriend, Mars, having just read it to her. It reminded me of my Jewish mother and her vibrant storytelling. There's great pleasure in telling a riveting tale of a small slight. It reminded Mars of my not-Jewish (but somehow more Jewish) father. Both respectful and subversive, he'll make a joke to an armed guard if he can.
