Why woul I want to make a Rabbi joke?

Two priests and a rabbi were discussing what portion of the weekly collection they kept for themselves.
The first priest explained that he drew a circle on the ground, stepped a few paces back and pitched the money towards the circle. What landed in the circle he kept and what landed outside the circle God kept.
The second priest claimed that his method was almost the same, except that what landed outside the circle went to the priest and the money that landed inside the circle God kept.

The rabbi said, “I’ve got you both beat. I throw ALL the money into the air, and what God wants, God takes!”

Mazal Tov!

40 Days!

When G-d gave us the Torah, Moshe (Moses) spent 40 days in Heaven.
Now is our 40 day countdown to CNB08!

Wii acknowledge...

This past Sunday's JEPLI BBQ was a smashing success. We all enjoyed musical accompaniment by JEFnAZI, as well as Yehuda hogging the Mic and me standing in a shopping cart.

Congrats to Sam Lipke, the winner of the NINTENDO Wii.

AND DOES THIS PICTURE SURPRISE ANYONE?

HOW ABOUT THIS ONE?

As Promised, the new Nageela recruiting video, produced by the talented Mordechai Shenker (who still is the only person in Nageela besides his father who's been there longer than I have) is now on youTUBE. Send your friends, send your pets, send your in'laws... well, maybe skip the in-laws, but check it out!

Update

this is what the logo is looking like at this point in time. Nobody has done a very good job convincing me otherwise, so I'm leaning towards Amp.
Lots of you guys have come up with great logo ideas, though, so thanks for those, and if I get a chance I'll try to make them all into logos that I'll post.

Whoaaaaaaaaaaah!

One of my favorite potential T-shirt designs of all time is this AMP ENERGY logo. I decided last year not to use it because I was under the impression that is was not kosher.

I checked today, and according to the Star- K, AMP is kosher, so here it is!

Not enough results

With only 5 days left to vote, I really haven'y gotten enough response to make a decision. To choose one T-shirt design because 5 people like it just doesn't wash (ouch).
Get some more of your friends to answer the call... this is your choice, well at least partially. I'm taking this vote into strong consideration, so if we have a solid favorite that has a really good chance of being on your shirt.

VOTE! VOTE! VOTE!

If you won't come to the Mountain

One of the least know, yet most important Jewish holidays begins tonight. Know what it is?

If you're scratching your head right now, then you probably need a new bottle of Head n Shoulders. Aside from that, you need to check out these articles about SHAVUOT.

Shavuos, or Shavuot is one of my personal favorites, and not just because my wife made cheese cake in a chocolate pie crust. It celebrates our graduation (yo, Jeff, can I get some pomp and circumstance?) from the U 0f Sinai (known as JUST- Jewish University at Sinai- Torah). It's when G-d gave us all the instructions and tools we need to be good people and productive people. In honor of that, some of us stay up all night (just like color war) and sleep all day (like a waiter).

I plan on learning Torah all night long tonight. Crack open a Jewish book and learn a bit yourself. The credits count towards your graduation.

T-Shirt Vote

I've got a terrible dilemma. No, no, it has nothing to do with pickles. It has to do with this year's t-shirt design. I started with no decent ideas (you might argue after seeing the designs that I still don't have any decent ideas, but I beg to differ), and lots of pressure to come up with one that would do justice to the Nageela reputation of great T-shirt designs.

So here we have 5 options (and of course if you have a better, new idea, I'm happy to hear it). Please VOTE IN THE POLL SPACE to your right, and leave comments in the comment section below.

Please vote. The future of our children depends on it!

Public Opinion

I had an idea for the new Nageela t-shirt, and I need your opinion of whether or not it is a good one. Here it is

It is, of course, based on the drink FRUITOPIA, with its distinctive label. Please give me feedback, thanks.

I want to be buried

There are some interesting people out there, and you'd think that the guy who created the 'pringles can' might have been a creative soul.

He was buried in a Pringles Can.

Ughh.

Tribute

This post is a tribute to Sam Lipke.
We love you Sam.
Don't say I never mention you.

Congratulationanos

Congrats to Michael, Jeremy and Matthew Wechsler on winning the New generation iPod nano at last night's Say KNOW auction @ the color war shabbaton. It came preloaded with "Blowin' in the wind."
