I'm Jewish! Yesterday was my Hatafat dam Brit (The poking bit, I wont go into details) then I went in the mikvah followed by a ceremony where I held the Torah for the first time as a Jew, said Shema for the first time as a Jew and was Blessed with my name Nachman Ovadya "compassionate servant of G-d".
Words alone cannot begin to explain the over whelming joy that pulses through my very soul right now. last night and this morning I said my prayers as a Jew and it was amazing like I said I can't explain it.
Tomorrow I am going to weekly minion and Saturday I will have my first Aliah, Life is good!

I am proud of you brother. My best friend's dream has come true, and I hope its everything you hoped it would be and that it makes you very happy.

Ian, I think your new name could not be any more appropriate for you. That is what you have been for as long as I have known you. You are quite a guy!
Okay, time to post a new blog now. Your fans are waiting to hear the latest news on life as a jewboy.
So were you referring to me being fashionably late getting a blog or you being fashionably late to commenting on it?
I'm confused because I am so wizard-like.
