A Curious Jew
Meet Chana. She is a curious jew. She's curious as in unusual, different. As in "exciting attention as strange, novel, or unexpected".
Is it because she seems to effortlessly quote Tanach, Talmud, and G'dolim at the age of 17? And mix it up with Ayn Rand or 'Fiddler on the Roof'?
Nope. It is because she seems to want to listen before talking. She seems to want to remain friends in spite of disagreement. She projects love and not condescension. And because of this, she is a rather curious phenomenon. Curious in the world at large, certainly rare in the Jewish world, and damn near a contradiction of the Laws of Nature in the JBlogosphere.
Whatever it is she's got, I hope it's contagious.

Listen before talking... Look, so did I ;)
Anyhow, peace on earth and in Jerusalem. And chevron!
Amen to that!
