Oy vey!

Sometimes I wish I were Jewish instead of a not-so-good Irish Catholic boy, simply because it would make me feel less strange for busting out Yiddish words and phrases all the time. I love what I term "Yiddioms" (aren't I clever!); they're just so useful and expressive. "Schlep," "schmukis," "putz," and "mensch," are among my favorites. "Schlong" is my number one, though. *hehe*
