An essay on when I participated in a Passover Seder in an Oregon state prison. Hopefully it gives a little perspective on the meaning of the holiday. http://www.hadassahmagazine.org/site/apps/nlnet/content.aspx?c=twI6LmN7IzF&b=6725377&ct=12964863&notoc=1

very interesting, thanks.
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

I'm not actually Jewish (by at least one, possibly two, generations of maternal grandparents) but I have to say that I found your piece to be quite moving. Thank you.

A fine story. Thanks for sharing that.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
