Purim in the catskills
I love to shop in his store, I always wait for the summer to get my shoes,
he & his wife are very friendly
His behavior was definitely caused by the city dwellers that come up and trample all over them during the summer. Don’t you know we are the cause of all their problems?
wasnt he once allegedly arrested for allegedly having drug parphanelia in his store?
Wish we had a fightin’ mayor here in NYC. In fact, there was a New York mayor named Edward I. Koch. A protester at a rally once came up to him and assaulted him. The mayor socked him right in the face and the perp. dropped to the ground.
Btw. His Yiddish name was Yidl Itzik. He claimed that the name was after his grandfather, who, in pre-communist Russia was a gang leader.
