    You guys rock! Come perform in Boston so I can see you! Take care. Modi you make me laugh. I live in Cambridge, MA. Things have been very tense here courtesy of those eppisers at Harvard. I am a singer, musician, actor and writer. I sing in Yiddish, Ladino, Hebrew, and other languages. I was in the film Gone Baby Gone as the homicidial maniac Roberta. Zei Gezunt. I teach Mindfulness which is truly hilarious in these Meshuganer Times.

    Modi, my name is Aharon, my husband Shachar, we absolutely love you!. I am seeing this video so late and I am sorry for that. We all are all Jews and you make us laugh so much. My Yiddish is bad, but my husband speaks it fluently and translates for me. Stick to Hebrew and English and I am good. Anyway, Leo is your twin, he is your soulmate. I met my husband to be 22 years ago, we married 20 years ago. He is my life and soul. I am looking at you and Leo, and your found your soul. He is not Jewish but we don't hold that against him, he is handsome and he makes you very happy. When you love a man is one thing, it is when he loves you back Baruch Hashem. Regarding the hostage's, we are friends with one there families, there poster is in our office. Bring them home from "this October Rain". your husband is not Jewish (even though he should be). There is feeling for our blood, it cries from the ground (you get this from Bereshit). our blood cries from the ground. Any way todah rabah for being your you are and todah rabah lEl for speaking our humor and truth ( I hate writing Hebrew in English. So, !מודי וליאו - רציתי לומר תודה על מי שאתם

    The host laughter is so annoying and artificial.
