Anyways, not a real Jewish holiday, but as the only Jews on the site, I can declare it as one. Tan and I are gonna be off to Florida starting Saturday night. I'll still be online at night, but as we're gonna be in Disney World, I make no promises for daytime hours. :)

I once timed a line I was in for a big new rollercoaster. I spent 45 minutes in line to ride what turned out to be (from start to stop) a 17 second ride.

I was in line ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY EIGHT FARKING TIMES as long as the ride itself!!!

It was like that episode of the Simpsons, where Homer stands in a mega-line at the amusement park waiting two hours to finally get to the end - where a sign reads: "We hope you enjoyed LINE, THE RIDE!"

In jersey, we have a six flags with this giant ride called Kingdaka or something like that. Tan, my sister and I stood there waiting for an hour, and then the ride broke down. We stayed for another hour, and then got to go on the damn ride, which was ridiculously short and annoying. Ugh

Passover is happening this Friday night to Sunday night, and then again from next Thursday night to Saturday night, I think. Tan and I will be offline for the duration. ^_^

(Also, happy Easter to the Christians. Hope you guys find chocolate eggs. ^_^)

Woke up this morning to a preacher on tv ranting that "Easterrrr" is a pagan holiday and that "every time you roll your Easterrrr eggs, you put your immortal soul in peril of hell!"

He said that phrase five or six times.  (Roll your Easter eggs? Was that like, a thing people used to do?)

Then he told us we needed to celebrate "Passover, the true resurrection of Christ!"

(I'm fairly certain Passover isn't a celebration of the resurrection of Christ. Xd )

Passover was a Moses thing right? But there is a tie-in with the Christian Resurrection theme there.

The blood of the Sacrificial Lamb, painted over the doors, spared Israel from the Angle of Death. Not sure what the Jewish way of looking at this is, but with Christianity, it is an allegory of Jesus (the Lamb of God) spilling his blood to save the world from death through his resurrection.

So that would be my guess why Passover and Easter would sometimes be mentioned together.

Interested in what Aman or Tans would say the Passover represents for the Jewish community.

Huh. So Jesus is called the sacrificial lamb? It would fit well with Passover, seeing how every year we make a sacrificial lamb offering.

Passover for us is the exodus, and we pray for the final exodus and the coming of the messiah

For us it wasn't actually the angel of death, it was God himself who went and killed all the Egyptian first-born.

Aman already went over it, but Pesah is basically about our road from slavery in Egypt to being free to service our own God in our own land. Since then we've been exiled time and time again, and as such we're looking forward to the next and final Exodus where all the Jews will live in Israel.
Wouldn't really say that we'll rule the world when the Messiah comes, cause we already do ;) ;D.

But seriously, from what I know, it seems its less 'ruling the world' and more, 'the nations of the world will love us' and whatever the inquires, since we're supposed to basically be the High-priests/Kohanim of the world by then. Something like that...

So here's the weird one. Aman has it easy in Israel, but we have a two-day holiday starting  tonight and ending Tues night. Wed-Fri is good. Then Sat-night through Wednesday (I think) is holiday again. Apparently ends the 6th. After that we're clear 'til Hanukkah sometime december ;D
