Mergers and acquisitions aren’t reserved for failing banks or technology companies: Turns out there’s excitement and kvelling in the Jewish themed consumer goods arena.
Jewish Fashion Conspiracy had its run and their products sidled over to PopJudaica. In addition to “Jews for Jeter” t-shirts and matzah-print toilet seats, they put six-points of light into a [...]
My “Jews For Jeter” t-shirt provided comfort, good luck and naches during the Yankees’ championship run. But if you’re a Mets fan, the off-season came early, without celebration or pre-holiday post-season splurges at the local Dicks or Sports Authority.
Take heart, fans of the injury-prone but get’em next year Amazins: New Rome Clothing has [...]
OK, my French is horrendous, my high school French teacher wants to rescind the award that she gave me upon graduation for “excellence in studies” and L’Academie Francaise is going to put a contract out on my tongue. Quelle frommage.
I don’t get the hockey writer’s negative sentiment about the Canadiens this season. Sure, [...]
In case you haven’t noticed, I’m finding little to write about in the hockey world (and won’t have much to say until the draft and free agency roll around). At the same time, I’m moving more and more of my non-work related blogging, rambling and insanity here. Hence the new categories. I’d [...]
In t-shirt form, at least. After sitting shiva (electronically) for Jewish Fashion Conspiracy, the company that originated the “Jews For Jeter” t-shirt I was faced with a quandry about my favorite Yankees t-shirt: wear it and risk Premio sausage stains rendering it unfit for a trip outside, or retire it like an out-of-print [...]
Kippy, the Flames goalie with a goofy nickname, has given up 3 goals on 9 shots tonight. One was on a power play and one was a misdirection that fooled all three Flames pretending to occupy the slot, but this isn’t good for those of us who wanted to see Mike Cammalleri [...]
It’s late, the Devils just pulled out a game that they had won, then lost, then won again because Patrik Elias can reshape physics, Brian Gionta’s passes and all bounds of sensibility to score goals. Hockey isn’t well suited to TV, because so much of the play develops away from the puck; it’s [...]
I’ve had a soft spot in my Tri-State area hardened hockey heart for Mike Cammalleri since last season. Playing for the Kings, he seemed out of place, out of (contract) time and out of luck. The guy can skate, shoot and create plays; he is (flame suit on) the Jewish Scott Gomez at [...]
It’s not a joke; it’s an annual gathering of Jewish puck heads in the sole ice sheet with Jewish soul. The Israel Ice Hockey Tournament is a chance to play hockey in the northern town of Metulla, at the Israel Canada Center (home of various Olympic figure skaters and the Israeli national ice hockey [...]
With a tip of the propeller hat to the Beijing Olympics, I wore a USA hockey jersey to a training class today (I was one of the co-instructors; we all wore hockey jerseys representing USA, Russia and the Ukraine). Right theme, wrong Olympics, but for some reason I’m finding it hard to get [...]
