…I had my Bar Mitzvah. A few thoughts come to mind:
-
I used a manual typewriter for my speech
-
When I spoke about this Haftorah and the importance of dedicating oneself to religion I would have never thought that 3.5 years later I would take steps towards a Torah observant lifestyle
-
Brown isn’t my color
-
I rocked the Run DMC glasses before Run DMC
-
The DJ played “Mr. Roboto” and “Rock the Casbah”
-
I had a lot of family come in from out of town
-
A Bar Mitzvah kiddush meant good cake and not Tam Tams
-
When you are 13, Musaf seem to take forever from the Bimah
-
That day after shul I went home and played my Atari 5200, this week after shul I’ll learn Chumash with my son
Mazel Tov. Lookin’ sharp.
Now that I have your attention…
Am I the only one that eats latkes with sugar on top?
One Question, One Point:
Why are you lighting the Menorah with a Havdalah candle?
True, brown is not your color.
Mazel tov! Until 120! Those glasses rock!
Sugar? hmmm I prefer apple sauce, but to each their own!
And to think we all wanted thick framed glasses back then.
Mazel Tov. Pretty young to be an accountant.
Mazel tov.
sugar on latkes is crazy delicious!
mazel tov! such a cute little yingeleh!
DUDE! You need to submit your pictures to http://www.barmitzvahdisco.com/
Hmmm. The sheepherder also had his Bar Mitzvah on Shabbos Chanukah. Also, very big glasses. No, Atari, though. Happy B-Day.
