Thanks for pointing it out. I just went back and saw it among all of the other RSS feeds that I haven’t gotten to read.

If you ask my wife, when I went to rabbinical school I became a friar. John, I assume that Andy is hinting at the modern Hebrew slang use of "friar" which means a gullible individual (insert lewder definition here). I have no idea where it comes from, maybe this is a job for Balashon.

I just saw John’s second follow-up post that you linked to. Are you a rabbi or a friar? (sorry).

I think this would fall under ‘too smart.’
