  1. brighton beoch,

    Welcome!! Your PLUSA manual, tiara, and membership card are in the mail.

    Please be advised that upon attending your first PLUSA gathering, you will be expected to buy the first round of shots. Identification of one or more PLUSAs will earn you extra credit.

    Please send Snappy your membership dues by the 15th of the month, she gets cranky if you’re late, and we stop sending the newsletter after two late payments.

    Also, please advise your boss that s/he needs to lighten your workload so that you can keep up with posting regularly. Spotty posting is frowned upon!!

    Best, Mgmt.

  2. brighton_beoch, did you ever see “St. Elmo’s Fire”? There’s an entire dinner scene where Joyce Van Patten, playing a Jewish mother, whispers “things she finds too horrible to pronounce”.

    “Did you hear about Betty Rothberg? [cancer]”
    “Betty’s daughter moved into the new neighborhood. Only 6 Jewish families but [very wealthy]”.

  3. DIBS, I know you didn’t mean it and I get the joke as well. :o)

    I just am very sensitive on that subject all together and I’ll tell you my reasons in person sometime if we’re ever on the conversation of Holocaust or growing up being a Jew in communist Russia.
