Our son did our Passover shopping, which included a visit to the Jewel on Howard in Evanston, known locally as the "kosher Jewel." Saturday is the best day to go because one doesn't have to compete with the Orthodox customers.
When he called me to check on exactly what I wanted in the Passover aisle, he told me that the aisle was full of young guys like him, all on the phone with their mothers!
For those of you who are zooming their Seders, as we are, here is a bit I cribbed from a friend's FB post:
The Torah Speaks of Four Kinds of People Who Use Zoom:The Wise
The Wicked
The Simple
The One Who Does Not Know How to “Mute”
The Wise Person says: “I’ll handle the Admin Feature Controls and Chat Rooms, and forward the Cloud Recording Transcript after the call.”
The Wicked Person says: “Since I have unlimited duration, I scheduled the meeting for six hours—as it says in the Haggadah, whoever prolongs the telling of the story, harei zeh ‘shubach, is praiseworthy.”
The Simple Person says: “Hello? Am I on? I can hear you, but I can’t see you.”
[Jerusalem Talmud reads here: “I can see you, but I can’t hear you.”]
The One Who Does Not Know How to Mute says: “How should I know where you put the keys? I’m stuck on this stupid Zoom call with these idiots.”
To the Wise Person you should offer all of the Zoom Pro Optional Add-On Plans.
To the Wicked Person you should say: “Had you been in charge, we would still be in Egypt.”
To the Simple Person you should say: “Try the call-in number instead.”
To the One Who Does Not Know How to Mute you should say: “Why should this night be different from all other nights?”
