just had to tell this story

i wasn't feeling well this evening so i decided to walk down the block to the grocery store. sounds pretty simple, nothing at all adventurous about it. but of course, i live in brooklyn.

when i got to the corner the first thing i saw was a very large nypd van with it's lights flashing, no siren. behind it, a very large group of people singing christmas carols in spanish. some of them are in costume. i see more than one jesus. i continue to the grocery store, pick up my orange juice and chicken soup. when i leave the store i immediately see that the carollers have moved. they are now standing in a fork in the road, on their way straight for the yeshiva (the hassidic jewish neighborhood a couple of blocks away). the only thing i can imagine is that the carrollers are on their way to the yeshiva to sing the jews into jesus.

only in brooklyn.
