The Wonderful "Taming Korach" Kapo Dickie its "Golden Calfer" award for being a buffoon. For details, see this. Among other things, the blog reports:
'Why is Richard a shining example of the American Jewish "Baby Boomer" generation? Rich tells us that he was an undergraduate in college in the 1970's. He was and is affiliated with the American Conservative Movement. He studied at Berkeley. As his blog, Tikkun Olam indicates, he has a vision of "Judaism" that is more about social justice than about Torah. So what's the difference? Silverstein has posted numerous times through the years his (and his wife's) adventures to non-kosher restaurants. About his wedding anniversary he wrote:My wife discovered a wonderful new Seattle restaurant, Casuelita’s, which features Caribbean cuisine. She introduced me to it for our fifth wedding anniversary and it couldn’t have been a more wonderful anniversary present.This non-kosher restaurant servers shrimp, pork, and all kinds of sea food (I called them). Apparently Rich's Tikkun Olam ("Fixing The World" in Hebrew) doesn't extend to eating kosher or advertising kosher restaurants on his "Jewish" blog.'
We think his next award will be the Preparation H award for Anti-Semitic creativity, awarded for people with brains up where the Prep H goes.
