Albany, NY -- JEC Reunion







There are few types of people in the world more annoying to me than those who come back from Israel and behave like the guy in this video...

This falafel looks pretty good, but... it's just not the same as eating in Israel, you know... I think it's the olive oil. They have such good olive oil over there... you can't get olive oil like that in New York... it's not the same, they make it here... it's not in the Middle East, it's not from the Meditteranean. The olives aren't as good, the olive oil isn't going to be good -- it's simple math!

Maybe I'm an ass, but Reunion is one of the last places in the world I'd ever want to go.

(Hat tip, Daniel)

Albany, NY -- Are You Smarter Than a First-Grader?

Apparently you don't have to be to get on Wheel of Fortune. I was watching today at the gym, and a guy asked to buy a vowel. What vowel? Well, um... uh... an "F!"

You can't make this stuff up...
