Profile: Curious George

http://www.jewornotjew.com/profile.jsp?ID=597

For those of you who are curious about George's amazing adventure as described above, check out this. There's something so satisfying in knowing that the nazis were beaten by a fictional monkey (well, his creators, but still)...

Thanks to multiple-time suggester and one-time profiler Pamela from North Carolina.

One of the best episodes of "The Critic" involves Siskel and Ebert breaking up and fighting for the partnership of Jay Sherman...

Profile: Harry Truman

http://www.jewornotjew.com/profile.jsp?ID=595

If it's not obvious, the crux of this is that Stalin thought Truman was Jewish. No, really. He supposedly did. But Stalin was also a paranoid lunatic, so there you go.

Thanks to Simon from Toronto for the suggestion.

Profile: Steve Wynn

http://www.jewornotjew.com/profile.jsp?ID=596

The poker monster has only demanded two trips to Las Vegas thus far (it has me in AC right freakin' NOW though, so it's all good). Meanwhile, I've yet to stay at the Wynn. Unfortunately, this means I can't review the hotel for those parties who may be interested in visiting. But, for the record, Mandalay Bay and Bellagio are nice enough.

As a side note, with casinos themed Italian, Roman, Egyptian, Parisian, New Yorken, etc. why not design a Jewish one? I mean, besides the obvious negative stereotypes that already exist with the correlation of Jews and money, name one good reason!

OK, so it's probably never gonna happen, but we can dream....

Profile: Lisa Turtle

http://www.jewornotjew.com/profile.jsp?ID=594

Here's what gets me about "Saved by the Bell": in one episode, Zach and Lisa became a couple. The following episode, it's like it NEVER HAPPENED...

Come to think of it, the same happened to Zach and Jessie. Ridiculous.

Peter Engel, the creator of SBTB: Jew.

Profile: Lewis Skolnick

For those of you who are wondering, yes, we're saying that Ogre (aka, Fred Palowakski) is Jewish.

And yes, Curt Schilling really is working on a Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game (MMORPG or Mumorpurger!), as seen here. He also is a hardcore World of Warcraft player. We don't know what type of character he plays, but we're rooting for blood elf.

Profile: Michael J. Fox

http://www.jewornotjew.com/profile.jsp?ID=591

Michael J is definitely one of those "we'll never profile this guy" profiles. And yet, here we are. Repeat after me: The queue is infinite. The queue is infinite. The queue is infinite......

Profile: Sam Raimi

http://www.jewornotjew.com/profile.jsp?ID=589

The timing of this profile seems pretty appropriate, since this week Raimi was named the director of a film to be based on "World of Warcraft". Any Jews in WoW? Hmmm...

Jews in the... HOLY CRAP!

Corruption in New Jersey? That's not exactly newsworthy. This though... this is (courtesty of Star Ledger, via nj.com):

Orthodox rabbis, acting more like crime bosses than religious leaders, laundered millions through synagogues and yeshivas in Deal, one of the state's wealthiest towns. And a Realtor tried to sell an informant a black market kidney for $160,000.

It's a huge scandal that's taken down three mayors (Hoboken, Secaucus, Ridgefield) a state cabinet member, and dozens of other state officials, and in the center of it all? Money-laundering, politician bribing, organ selling Rabbis.

Shocking. All this time we could have been purchasing kosher kidneys for our own personal use? Just a terrible waste.

Profile: Evan Rachel Wood

As promised on this very blog, the profile is finally here. Wood was also suggested by reader Rob from Queens.

Profile: Alan Veingrad

http://www.jewornotjew.com/profile.jsp?ID=588

We recently had a discussion of who is the most obscure profile on JONJ. We might have a new titleholder!

Veingrad was referred by multiple-time suggester Bruce from Los Angeles.

Big Ben, the gift that keeps on giving

What's this? Another bump in Ben Roethlisberger profile reads on JONJ? But it's not even football season...

Oh... Wow.

No, seriously, Not a Jew. We Jews don't invite women up to fix our TVs and then rape them... Allegedly.

Profile: Queen Beatrix

http://www.jewornotjew.com/profile.jsp?ID=587

The big debate at JONJ headquarters is, does .006% make someone BARELY Jewish. At the end, we say yes, because that .006% is verified*. (You can use that website to trace all the way back to Diego Velazquez.)

*Unless, of course, one of those countesses or marquises had a child out of wedlock. Then it's pretty much moot.

Profile: Noam Chomsky

http://www.jewornotjew.com/profile.jsp?ID=586

Yes, Noam. There is no more anti-semitism. So when a Jew-hating psycho guns down a guard at the Holocaust museum, it's not anti-semitism. It's... WHAT THE HELL IS IT?

Chomsky was suggested by reader Alex from London.
