Have a queer Sabbath… with me!

Here’s the skinny on the first Kulanu event I’ve planned:

Kulanu (Montreal’s queer, Jewish students group) along with Kolot Rabbim and Feygelah, invites you to a shabbaton (and Kulanu’s first event of the year)!

When: Friday, September 16th, 7pm.

Where: 430 Prince-Arthur O, #4. (Please use the stairs off DuRocher, come up to the second floor.)

What else: A kosher, vegetarian dinner will be provided, following the traditional egalitarian services.

Nu? For more information on Kulanu, the shabbaton, and/or upcoming events, please check out http://groups.yahoo.com/group/kulanumontreal

Labour Day Weekend

vierge_en_trop’s description of Saturday night, after dinner and sangria, was quite brilliant:

And just so you know, last night involved wandering among droves of scary and scantily clad student-types on St Laurent (eep!), looking for a 24 hour cafe where my motley crew and I could play a game of midnight Scrabble. I wasn’t scared for a minute, as we were led by our favorite queer jewish fruit dehydrating specialist on his spectacular low-ride cruiser while he sang Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head.

As it happens…

Who amongst you is Dwight? Dwight from Texas, are you reading this? Today I received two items from my wishlist: Everything Scrabble, by Joe Edley, and Myths of Gender: Biological Theories About Women and Men, by Anne Fausto-Sterling. If, Dwight, you are reading this - thank you so much for the Amazon delivery! Thank you!
