Re: elvis

[avi finegold <afinegold...>]

ok im going to have to enter the fray and urge
everyone to check out www.schmelvis.org
the official website of the doc. where they took a
chabad elvis impersonator to graceland to say kaddish
at his grave and look for his seemingly jewish roots
(apparently his mothers mothers mother was jewish) 

i know i know it sounds like too much and it is but i
laughed the whole way though (though i must admit i
was laughing more AT it than WITH it)

anyways this will either settle everything or cause
even further tzoris

the whole world is a narrow bridge
     and the main thing is to have no fear  -rabbi nachman
the numerical equation of ahavah in hebrew is 13(a prime number)
     be'ahava is 2(bet) x 13
     when two complete and unbreakable (prime) loves come together in 
love(be'ahava), you have 26
     this shows that god (equivalent to 26) enters into a relationship only if 
there is a complete unbreakable selflessness to the other    -avi finegold 
and one one hand he tattooed the word love/and on the other the word fear   
-bruce springsteen
