My cultural experience...

One of the nice things about living here is that most of the culture here is Jewish. Another nice thing is that wine is really good and really cheap. As I was checking out of the supermarket today one of our Arab cousins was bagging my groceries. He did a pretty good job but I noticed that he avoided bagging the wine. At the end everything was bagged except the wine and he asked me to take care of it. I was a little puzzled but I complied. Then it came to me... Muslims won't even touch wine. Interesting. Well, too bad for them...L'Chaim!!!
