		Let me explain: "Our Jewish jazz expresses the complexity of our life, the collective memory of East European Jewry, its culture, its art, its Yiddish world, a memory which was, at home, an integral part of our life and at the same time we want to express in our music the Israeli reality and existence.
		By integrating Merzer's artistic legacy into their performances they indeed preserve the legacy of the traditional Jewish melodies and the best of the Yiddish culture which was almost destroyed completely by the Nazis and their collaborators.

	JEWISH
		Perhaps Hashem, our Jewish revelation of God is intentionally obscure, requiring Jews from the beginning to twist and turn their "grubber finger", their fat finger, in increasingly didactic exercises of logic, thereby honoring and rewarding smartness in their long history of service to mankind.
		Hashem is on the side of the enlightened, not on the side of the Serbs, the Americans or the Jews.
		The native Americans are the only ones that could claim it as a homeland, but even they came here from other continents.

	Home - Voluntary Simplicity (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Concerned that members of their communities are going into debt to create celebrations that "keep up with the Goldbergs," the guidelines stipulate maximum numbers of guests and musicians and even specify appropriate centerpieces, flowers and menus, regardless of the celebrants’ incomes.
