shana tova (happy new year)

yesterday was jewish new years day. this means that it was one of the two days per year that i acknowledge my religious links to jerry seinfeld and go pay a visit to my rabbi.

it also signifies LOTS of eating, drinking and couching, all of which i am a big fan.

but why do jews celebrate new years in september? i hear you all pondering.

well my ignorant little pagans, the jewish religion teaches us that jesus was no more than a good carpenter who gave mates rates to anyone who joined his wacky new-fangled cult called christianity. therefore, we still go by the jewish calendar, ignoring all the BC and AD stuff. and so yesterday was the first day of 5765.

shana tova to you all.
