So I might host a Passover Seder for the first time ever this year. This may or may not be a Good Thing, but it did result in one truly silly conversation with Michael, when he told me his parents had offered to bring us copies of the Haggadah(s) they used to use. "Cool, that might be helpful." I said.
"Yeah, but you don't understand. This Haggadah went on forever."
(Switches to Charleton Heston/Monty Python voice)
"And, lo, Moses wandered in the desert with the Israelites, and they wandered and wandered for 40 days. And then, lo, Moses came upon Pharaoh and said 'Pharaoh, let my people go." And verily, Pharoah said to him, 'Not a chance.' And so Moses wandered the desert some more. And then he spoke to the Israelites and told them many things. And then he quoth to the Lord, 'Oh Lord!' And the Lord spake unto Moses and said, 'Moses, you need to do this first thing.' And Moses did the first thing and wandered some more..."
{ Then several minutes of this followed, but I can't recall it well enough to do it justice. But it involved plagues. Lots of plagues.}
"And then, the most ridiculous part... was that it ended with the song "God Bless America!'"
I'm not sure I'm ready for this.
