Fun Things Rabbis Do in Their "Off" Time (From One of My Teachers in Rabbinical School) ...

Rabbis are lucky to have interesting work lives ... we never seem to do the same thing two days in a row ... but living in California (and in/near LA, in particular) seems to come with extra perks.  Click on the link below and check out how my Pastoral Counseling teacher got to spend his off time before this year's High Holy Days:

PS ... Here in Texas, we don't get as many opportunities for this ... but ... about six months ago, I got to help the set designers and costume designers with a movie being filmed in Smithville, Texas ... they needed some help making a Jewish funeral look authentic so I helped picking out a tallis for the dead guy and telling them how it was supposed to be used and found them appropriate kippot for the "guests" to wear at the funeral (some of our congregants were even extras in the scenes).  Just a little bit of the "out of the ordinary" ways rabbis spend their days!  : )
