Tech, Challah, and Conan O'Brien? Gather ROIers together and that's what you get!
ROIers never stop, so it was a special privilege that a few came out for a special bar meetup and to share a few words about their lives and projects.
Eli Winkelman is planning her Challah for Hunger component at the upcoming Hazon Food Conference, which is being organized by ROIer Emily Freed (who couldn't attend because she's the opposite of being New York-based).
Our tech guys Aryeh Goldsmith (whose idea it was to pass the candle) and Micah Bergdale are midway into some great projects (separately) that they'll share details about later. But we all raised a glass to Micah, whose birthday it was!
And Yitz "Y-Love" Jordan, fresh off his collaboration with Erran Baron Cohen on "Songs in the Key of Hanukkah," announced that he'll be appearing on Conan O'Brien's late-night talk show for his Hanukkah episode this Friday. The show's taped in advance, and of course, airs on Friday night, when observant Jews can't watch it. But maybe that's why God invented TiVo...
Special guest star at the bar night was visiting Birthright Israel NEXT South Florida director Lindsay Litowitz, in from Florida for a few days only, and spending her time with us for a mid-week surprise that was most welcome.
Break a leg, Yitz, and good luck to all our ROIers with their projects!
