MEMBER OF THE WEEK: Amazing, tireless, extraordinary, inspirational. Just a few of the adjectives that describe the incredible contributions to the YOUNG ISRAEL OF CHOMEDEY of our very own pillar of strength, NAT YACOWAR. NAT has served on just about every committee in our synagogue since the early years, including a stint as President from 1984-86. He spends countless hours organizing and soliciting contributions for our SEMI-ANNUAL BAZAAR, including arranging pick up crews for the merchandise. The thousands of items NAT gets from donors will be available to all the next couple of Sundays, NOVEMBER 22nd AND 29th and, as usual, NAT encourages our members to donate their time to help out at the BAZAAR. He counts on all of us to pitch in and help, in the same way that he continues to play a prominent role in so many shul activities.NAT orchestrated the program for our very successful 50th ANNIVERSARY GALA and put together much of the fabulous PROGRAM BOOK that remains the talk of the town since August 30th. He is presently working hard to make a DVD disc available to our members so that each of us can have a lasting memory of an unforgettable evening. NAT'S boundless energy continues to motivate us all to do a little more for the synagogue. Every year NAT organizes the aliyahs for our HIGH HOLIDAY SERVICES. It has become a welcome tradition to see NAT in his limitless wheelchair in front of the opened ark during NEILAH services at the end of YOM KIPPUR. His wonderful wife, LUCY, and their beautiful children and grandchildren adore this very special individual, as we all do. NAT'S lifelong commitment to the YOUNG ISRAEL OF CHOMEDEY and to the CHOMEDEY community continues to encourage many of us to do whatever we can as well. NAT YACOWAR, an inspiration to us all and a most deserving recipient of the title of MEMBER OF THE WEEK.

COMEDY BREAK:
A rabbi, a priest, and a minister are out fishing in the middle of a lake. The priest tells his two colleagues, "I forgot my fishing pole in the car; I'll be right back." He gets out of the boat, walks across the water to the beach, goes to the car, walks back across the lake, and gets into the boat. The rabbi stares in amazement. A half hour later, the minister says, "I need to use the bathroom." He, too, gets out of the boat, walks across the water, finds the nearest men's room, and walks back across the water and gets into the boat. The rabbi is absolutely dumbfounded! The rabbi keeps thinking, "My faith is as great as theirs!" So he speaks up and says, "I need to get something to drink; there's a refreshment stand up on the beach."
He stands up, puts his feet on the water, and SPLASH goes straight down under the water. The priest and minister help him back into the boat.
He is embarrassed, not to mention wet, but he knows he can do it if the other two can. So, he stands up again, steps out onto the water, and again, SPLASH!! Again, he is dragged out, and again he decides to try. As he is going down for the third time, the priest turns to the minister and asks, "Do you think we should show him where the rocks are?"
HAVE A GREAT WEEK |
