I imagine that's all everyone will talk about after service this Sunday!

Hey. Just go with me on this. Your brother told me to ask you this -- describe your family.

I can get the keys to the artifacts. I only have them for a short time next Friday night.

How do you feel about learning about Jewish culture next week?
