The song? Not quite top 40. But lovely. Most of us probably don't know, beyond

Hava Nagila, what my dad (in his Baltimore accent) called "Joosh "music and stuff . When he was a boy he made some money by roaming the Jewish neighborhoods on Fridays, making himself available to light candles for people who hadn't managed to do so before sundown. I wonder if Jack knows how many fans he has. Maybe better he doesn't, but we're all rooting him.

My dad was a milkman when I was young and dinosaurs roamed the earth and would talk of lighting and relighting fires for those Jewish folks on his route.

Oops, wrong demon.

If Rabbi O'Halloran shows up, I would be surprised at all.

He's got 100% of the Tulsa rabbis in his corner. What more could he want?

Sometimes my wife and I attend OLLI (Osher Lifelong Learning Institute) classes at the Hebrew Home (Zarrow) and I always hope to see our favorite 96 year old as we're walking in or leaving. So far, no luck. We both wish him (and you) well and a quick return to his abode.

Very touching. Godspeed, (the Jewish one), Jack. You'll be back in the Hebrew home in no time.

Bellowing and flirtation is that much better than the bellowing of flirtation, but I wouldn't want to guess by how much. Glad he's doing better and has a full compliment of rabbis at his disposal. But be careful letting the priests in as they can be hard to shake.

Jews and Catholics and who knows what else, oh no! A breakthrough in ecumenical relations! Don't they have laws forbidding that in Oklahoma?
