Conversation with my daughter on the way to her softball game this morning:

Daughter: you know I don't have school on Monday or Tuesday
Me: why...it one of those Jew holidays?
Daughter: yes it's Rosh Hashana

Funny thing is that I don't have off for Rosh Hashanah, but I do for Yom Kippur... and last year, it was the other way around.

The thing that separates the wire from other great shows in a similar genre is they're primarily carried by a great lead actor...Tony Soprano...Walter White etc. The wire just has many layers of great characters

this is how powerful the jews are...even being nice its like 5% of the population of the school district (teachers/students/admin) and of that 5% like 3/4ths dont give a shtein about the holiday. so basically everyone gets a 4 day weekend for nothing...good stuff

at my old jew school they used to give us the off for smaller jew holidays and some of them lasted a week. those were amazing.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

It was a great show.  But it was just a goddamned show.

Let's move on.

The Wire is like the Grateful Dead.

Pretty good, but Jesus Christ, the fans.

That's why I don't visit the Shakespeare thread.
