Spurious Passover Nibs


The Spurious Nib would like to wish our Jewish friends a joyous and enriching Passover!
Just a moment ago good old Dusty Japes recalled a story by our founder Maximus Tornblatt.

Back when I was starting The Harried Hessian Journal we lived next to the Cohen family. I was hiding Easter eggs for my grand-child Bunkie Fuzzbutton to find in the morning. I spotted little Bobby and Sissy Cohen outside searching for the Afikoman. And what’a ya know they each found an Easter egg and excitedly hurried back inside their home.
I wasn’t sure what to do. I hemmed and hawed for a bit. I didn’t want to intrude on their special night. But then I decided it would be best to go make sure I hadn’t gotten the little folks into any trouble. As I approached the front door it began to open. There was Bobby, eyes as wide as saucers, “Papa it’s Eliyahu!” Startled I stopped at the threshold. Mr. Cohen looked up and said, “Oy vey! That’s not Eliyahu, that’s the Easter bunny! We all had a good laugh.

With that said…
Happy Pesach
Chag Pesach Samech
Chag Pesach kasher vesame’ach
Gut yontif
Why do we have a Haggadah at Passover?
So we can Seder right words.
Be well my friends.
