Inside Jokes

Directions: Read the complete list of inside jokes. For every joke you understand, award yourself one (1) imaginary point. Keep track of the points, or else.

Class A: Quotables
"There's a bungus among us"
"Magenta Pig!"
"I like it when you call me Rav Pappa"
"Can you read Rashi?... Can you write Rashi?"
"Heschel is cloaked in mushy-gushy"
"Say no to evil!"
"New shita has come to light!"
"STAM!"
"Shmeh"
"Oh, shalom!"

Class B: Concepts
The Prophecy and ABWs
ALEPH DELTA MAO
The Gilboa Virus
Bananaphone
Sudoku Mishna
Mail-order Chevruta

Class C: Activities
Wallowing in the Torah
Getting Ladle
"Neeger" and the arm pinch
The Cholent Club
Cucumbers
Getting Biggy with it
Calling Benjamin's cell phone

Class D: Personalities
Rav Shimon Schkop
Break-Dancing Midget
The High Commissioner of Pants
Juan Marie
Charlene and Clarisse

Class E: Griffins
"Shallow and Pedantic"
"Eat this pinecone!"
"The book can also be... a hat!"
The philosophy of Thomas Griffin
Josiah Griffin's telephone number

Now that you have all your points carefully added up, it's time to get your score:
0-8 points: You obviously know nothing about my time in Israel. Either that, or you can't add.
9-16 points: You display a fair amount of knowledge of my time in Israel. I recommend reviewing old entries, or watching a few select episodes of "Family Guy"
17-24 points: You seem to know a lot about my time in Israel. If you knew any more, you might actually be a part of Shiluv 13.
25-33 points: You are part of Shiluv 13. You have to be, to know so much about my time in Israel. Well done.
34-40 points: You somehow managed to score more points than there were questions. You are a dirty rotten cheater, and I have no respect for you as a human being. Better luck next time.

And... today is the birthday of the red-haired Canadian we all have grown to know and love. David Zvi Epstein, you are now officially one year older! And to mark this momentous occasion, allow me to offer a gift of the highest form: a standard purple copy of "Happy Birthday" as marked on my website:

Happy birthday to you,
Happy birthday to you,
Happy birthday to David Zvi,

Happy birthday, Magenta Pig!

You're back!

I got zero points, obviously, but come check out your link anyway. It's on the right side of my site.

WELCOME BACK YONI!! So thrilled to see you're back and finally getting better. You were sorely missed. I worked my way through the test and can only find 3 things that ring a bell, the most obvious being Benjamin's cell phone...and cucumbers...and aleph delta mao. How 'bout "Fa So No..."? May you continue to be in good health, Yoni. Tina
