Jews, Non-Jews and Weight Loss
A little more than four years ago, I was walking on Cashio Street and I dropped something on the ground. When I bent down to get it, let’s just say it wasn’t easy to stand back up. I was almost 200 pounds with a big puffy face. I was really starting to feel old. A day or two later, as …

Comedian Mark Schiff’s Done it All: Seinfeld, Carson, Letterman and Leno – Now What?
By Joan Brunwasser I’ve been doing private events and touring with Jerry Seinfeld. I was at Caesar’s Palace with him a few times in the last couple of years. It’s a great gig.
