Wow, I hope those interviews with Jewish Mothers keep updating. I read them all!

Fun post!...

I agree with Ambrosia Voyeur about the Jewish mothers. Harvey Fierstein's mom is great. I imagine her sounding just like him.

Not to be a party-pooper, but to me there's a difference between a Hall of Fame and some guy's list of stuff he likes that he decides to call a "hall of fame." I was severely disappointed by the "bookstores" link.

That aside, nice post!

Seriously. 'Here are 17 bookstores on the West Coast/NYC/London that I have been to. They are good. Huzzah!'
