A Purim to Remember

Remember that Purim video from last year? Well, just like Purim, a year later it's back for everyone to enjoy. Enjoy the clip (as over 700 people on Youtube already have!) and make sure you come out for this year's Hillel Purim party for another round of mayhem. Click here for details.

Anti-Semitism at University of Toronto

Who is Oboehobo?

Avi and a Hobo that isn't G.I. Joey

OK, first off, I want to say thank you to all you Shul visitors. We have had well over 15 000 page loads and I couldn't be prouder. Thank you to Mr. T for being the guiding light that continues to inspire me.

*Ahem!*

So, who or what is Oboe Hobo? Well, her name is Rachel and she gets her education in Cincinnati, Ohio. Beyond being a really cool, interesting person, she also writes a great blog. Just like this one, it is part of the Jblog web ring. You can find a link to it near the bottom of this page. Or you can just click here.

Got a blog you think is worth sharing? A new recipe? Have a love advice question for Dr. Love? Leave it in the comment box.

Downtown Sabbath Boogie

I got back last night from a fun-filled Shabbat (Sabbath) in downtown Toronto. A special shout-out to Noam and Tamara for being such awesome housemates.

The Hillel at the University of Toronto/ Hillel at Ryerson University joint IsraelFest dinner was a lot of fun, and just like that title, it was a mouthful.

Bouncing over to the Anshei Minsk synagogue in Chinatown (formerly Jewtown) was a great. While we were crossing College street we shared a stare with Rush lead singer Geddy Lee as he rode a bicycle Eastward. Mr. Lee (or Weinrib), if you read this, drop a comment and say hi!

Rabbi Spiro at the Minsk was as friendly and generous as always. He fed us well, and I continue to salivate when I think about the hot cholent. So tasty!

As a special treat, here is the latest music video from Canadian hit super-band, Broken Social Scene. Why this video? Well, it features a great cameo appearance by none other than Geddy Lee!
Enjoy.
