Sorry for the double post.
Dollypop, or anyone, how do I go about sending PB.ENT a message? I'm kinda new to this, so if someone could tell me I would appreciate it. Thanks!

The word 'pulke" is Yiddish for thighs. It can be traced back to the language of the ancient tribe of Israel known as the Cellulites.

Pulke! I love that word. :P

Poulke is a great word, as is shnurevadleh (which means shoe lace), and kutchuruveh (curly, as in hair).

Again, how do I PM someone?

If you want to send someone a PM, look under their avitar (or logo) and you'll see "Send PM". You click it and voila!

In PB_ENT's case, go to the "Interviews" feature and scroll down to "Pati's Place". You can click on her name and send her a PM or an e-mail.

I grew up in a very small town on Eastern Long Island. We were one of the few Jewish familes. I was in a concert in high school and my grandmother went up to one of my music teachers and told him that he had nice payos. He had no idea of what she was talking about. She was from Brooklyn and everyone spoke Yiddish. I had to explain to him that payos meant sideburns
