Twitter talk.
OK, so y’all know that I love technology. I blog, I tweet, I have more computers than people in my household of five, etc. But to have my husband walk out of the bathroom, freshly showered, and say, “Hehe, that was funny” and realize that he’s talking about the message I just posted to Twitter? That’s just plain spooky. My tweets go directly to his phone, a mere 10 seconds after I post them. I’m not sure I’m ready for the arrival of in-house technokinesis.
(For the curious, the Twitter message was about “budget cuts,” and how I just trimmed my husband’s “JewFro” via a backyard haircut. It’s not bad, if I do say so myself…)

I just flagged this thread.....
I am a Jew - it is common stereotype (taken seriously at times) - that jews are extremely thrifty to the point of ridiculousness.
No offense or anything, but I find your reference to your husband's "backyard haircut" offensive.
Also even in your source citing -
"Heeb Magazine, an irreverent Jewish review, published a photo-spread on the "Jewfro" in its first issue"
Please reword your thread or just delete that passage all together.
lol EG- my ex and I used to
lol EG- my ex and I used to be simlar to that. We communicated more online than in RL. Dang technology. Very cute story. I wasnt offended by your jewfro bit either. ;)

Thanks for the comment. My husband is my best friend, so we do a lot of talking in real life, but he just can't resist a gadget.

One of the best parts of being a Jew is making fun of oneself! :) To be honest, I didn't think about the Jews = stingy thing, because I've always been frugal. Now that I've tamed his wild hair, I sort of miss it. Good thing I only have to wait a few weeks until it's out-of-control again.
