Was gonna mention that Jospeh Heller was jewish, but Catch-22 is still one of my favorite books.

I don't think you're missing anything. The premise and first, oh, third or so were funny. After that it dragged and meandered. You've probably already read all the entertaining bits anyway.

Trends, advertising, and popularity are incontrovertible proof that people are influenced by their sensory input. Avoiding recognized jewishness is a positive step towards maintaining one's moral and spiritual health.

You'd need to avoid modern jewish society entirely to retain full health, but you have to start where you are.

It's one or my all time favorite books.. top 5 for sure.

Lonesome dove is great as well if you want a book that will have you laughing then pull a gut wrenching moment not soon after.

My dad looked just like Hawkeye Pierce and when I was a child I thought they were the same person, that probably every adult was on TV, that MASH was the show with my dad in it. Life was a party in 1983

I can open something and enjoy a few pages. But even if I like it I just don't care I guess. I dont listen to music either.
