Look Who I Found In Synagogue

Pokemon

Well, this was quite a surprise in the hip Magen David Synagogue today.


I captured this amazing Pokemon. 


I can’t say that I actually saw him davening (praying) in shule. 


But he was on the way down to the kiddush (blessing and meal) after services. 


No virtual apps needed for this Pokemon.  


He was right there over the chulent (bean and meat stew)–Oh, that must’ve been another week. 


Anyway, this Pokemon is ready to defend in the next battle of good and evil. 


Thanks to Nintendo, Pokemon goes these days where the rest of our leaders are afraid to endeavor. 


Hence the search for Pokemon far and wide…it’s a true craze. 😉

Anime Kicks Butt

Character - Shoot
Japanese Anime is so cool.


They have these amazing characters that any kid would like to have. 



With swords, shields, guns and well-honed fighting powers, these champions are ready for battle. 



This one was at Barnes and Nobles for $34.95 this holiday session. 



If I was still a kid, I could wrap my imagination around this, and help save the world from all the evil and stupid characters out there–unfortunately, both fictional and too often real.   😉
