Tanks, Kubeh, Bourekas and Babies: A Personal History of Immigration to Israel

10 Comments

  It turns out that Israel takes on different appearances depending on whose eyes it’s viewed through. An early twenty-something steps off the plane and sees through wide eyes a sun-kissed land filled to brimming with young olive skinned honeys filling out olive-toned uniforms in all the right places, deliciously greasy buckets of shwarma meat [...]

The good folks of funnyordie.com have put up a nice little promo for Walk Hard. It features a nice fight between Judd Apatow and Craig Robinson. Take a look at Craig Robinson‘s shirt. Guess he picked it up earlier this year on his visit. As you see the shenanigans unfold in this video you’ll see [...]

Tales of the Golan: Harry vs. The Wild Boar

Leave a Comment

I couldn’t help but laugh while reading Shmuel’s near splattering of a wild boar on the Golan Heights while driving home from work. It reminded me of one of the funniest experiences of my army service. We were somewhere in the middle of a military zone on the Golan Heights. Even though our base was [...]

Harry vs. Zombies

I’ve been feeling quite crappy lately. The drugs help the physical aspect of my pain of course, but don’t do much for the spirit. In fact, narcotic hazes can get quite depressing. I’m actually dumbfounded as to how people actually get addicted to this stuff. I haven’t taken a decent shit in over a week. [...]

Spent the day with a few college friends visiting from America. Took them for some awesome Kurdish Kube soup and some juice laced with narcotic qat leaves in the Mahane Yehuda shuk in Jerusalem. Ran into someone completely unexpected that I haven’t seen in years. Good times. Later in the day, we celebrated the engagement [...]

Hating on the J-Blogosphere

Leave a Comment

Michael, resident Jewlicious badboy (though he would prefer to be referred to as enfant terrible), takes issue with the prevalent aura of self-importance in the “Jewish Blogosphere.” His entry reminds me of the three year old question, “Are you a Jewish blogger or a blogger who is Jewish?” Me? I couldn’t give two shits. I [...]

Israeli daily Ma’ariv reported today that Israeli guitarist/schlockmeister/perpetual cheese machine David Broza laid down a few tracks with Wyclef Jean for the upcoming Fugees album. “The connection between myself and Wyclef is very musical” said Broza. “We first came together to compose music for movies. It then evolved into working on the Fugees reunion album. [...]

A man builds a car-powered raft and sets off from Bat Yam in an attempt to flee Israel. The Marine Policing Unit of the Tel Aviv District searched the Mediterranean coast in the area of the rumored launch and found that there was such a raft sailing west of Bat Yam, south of Tel Aviv. [...]

Tel Aviv Signage

I see a lot of things around here that warrant a chuckle. I always say to myself, “Damn Harry, you should carry your digital camera with you wherever you go.” Luckily, this time I did. I think I’ll pass on living on what I call “Take My Money” street and shopping at “Shams.” It’s shame [...]

Timewarp: Harry chats with Shaul Mofaz

Leave a Comment

Yet another chapter of the Harry’s army chronicles… 1998. My advanced tank training was held on the southern Golan Heights. We spent about 90 percent of our time out in the shetach (field). Upon returning to the base on Sunday we would drive our tanks through military only areas of the Golan, passing decimated and [...]
