THINGS THAT HAPPEN IN<br />
ISRAEL AND NEVER AT HCME<br />
By Adam Eis<br />
1) Pushing old ladies - don’t deny it. You know you’ve done it at least once.<br />
2) 20 year olds wanting to look 17 - if you never asked for that card, you lost<br />
out.<br />
3) Perpendicular/diagonal parking - The Israeli motto is, “If it doesn’t fit,<br />
never quit...there’s always room for your car, whether it’s parked diagonal<br />
or perpendicular.”<br />
4) Buses pulling over for a falafel - don’t believe m e....just walk to the 5 shek<br />
falafel store (actually hut) and you’ll see.<br />
5) M16’s everywhere - It’s not in every country that people walk down the<br />
street with M16’s. Back at home if people see an M l6, they will run for<br />
cover.<br />
6) Checking bags when you enter and not when you leave - need I say more?<br />
7) Your falafel dealer is also an oral surgeon - rumor has it that you get a free<br />
falafel with every check-up...<br />
8) Chefetz Chashud - If you leave a bag unattended here, it gets blown up. If<br />
you do the same at home, it gets stolen.<br />
9) Ridiculous Store Hours - Why is it that stores are always closed during your<br />
free time, and open when you have classes. Can you say conspiracy?????<br />
10) Bezek - There is no way you will ever, and I mean ever, have an experience<br />
like this back home.
