In all-time classic moments in Jewish geography, at a wedding in Istanbul someone asked me if I happened to know a woman from my law school. I did know them. Because I am married to her.

I honestly believe that trying to create an English-language consensus on what to call other countries using their native languages has the substantial risk of starting wars

That Time Hugo Chávez Threw Out The First Pitch At Shea Stadium Hugo Chávez, the polarizing president of Venezuela who died Tuesday at 58, had cast himself as a foe of the United States over much of the past decade. But it

Yes, a South American autocrat went what the British call full-kit wanker. I wish I could make things like this up.

The weirder thing is the ceremonial first pitch. Which was thrown out by Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez. In a full uniform including baseball pants and mitt.

5,000 days since Bobby Valentine’s fake mustache 000 days ago, one of the greatest stunts any manager ever pulled occurred. It was Fake Mustache Night in the Mets dugout—at least it was for manager Bobby Valentine. It was June 9…

Here’s more on the disguise, which, like I said, was the second weirdest thing that night.

Today is the 26th anniversary of the time Bobby Valentine got ejected and then snuck back into the Mets dugout wearing a fake mustache. Unbelievably, that was the second weirdest thing that happened at that ballgame. A 🧵

John Cougar Mellencamp is at the Knicks/Pacers game. I don’t think I’ve been physically proximate to him since a show where he was inexplicably playing a set between Willie Nelson and Bob Dylan

In Indianapolis, America’s okayest city. Made it to game 4. Hilarious to hear hip-hop at the pacers game b/c no matter what the basketball result it’s a NY cultural victory

This has been anxiously awaited by almost dozens of people
