Well today is the blowout bash at Médem, the finale for the year's courses, and I've got a major part in our class' little skit about the American Jew and his nextdorke. Seems like the French Jews really do find something novel and folksy about how American Jews thrive on blurring the boundaries between themselves and the mainstream. Dreyfus lives?
