I think i must be misunderstanding something about what the parents are thinking of.

I am guessing that most guests at Bar Mitzvahs give cash. So if Sami's mom gave cash to every one Sami went to that would be a lot of money she's given to these various people.

But isn't the cash kind of similar to what you give when going to a wedding, rather than something you'd even think that someone would pay back as a return favor someday?

To me it is, and more because of the religious aspect and the importance of a Mitzvah.

Jane - Someone linked to this article on Leslie Odom, Jr. in HAMILTON

http://www.wsj.com/articles/playing-the-man-who-shot-hamilton-1438896589

The link keeps giving pop-up ads, but with a little patience, it's worth reading, a good solid interview.

Thank you for the link.

Have any New Yorkers seen "Invisible Tread"? Odom's wife is in it.

I just read in an artcile that Whitney Houston had been named after Whitney Blake (the late mom of Meredith Baxter, played the mom on Hazel, co-creator of One Day at a Time).

Jrand - I've been using that line "I'm so old Abraham Lincoln stayed home on my birthday" to much laughter and delight.

I read that as the abundance of HAZEL (which of course is becoming a musical directed by Lucie Arnaz)

If Wall Street Journal links are working for folks here: This article about a new book on redheads says our impression of redheads is greatly influenced (ironically) by Lucille Ball.

http://www.wsj.com/articles/ginger-snaps-1438970122

From the article:

" It is in the nature of our ambivalence toward red hair, Ms. Colliss Harvey argues, that much as we fear or distrust what it represents, we desire its empowering qualities and its ability to make us stand out. Red hair dye, the author points out, sells better than any other shade. She believes that we have Lucille Ball, who happily admitted to dyeing her hair to play her popular TV character, to thank. Independent and resourceful, Ball created an enduring archetype of redheaded feistiness originally seen in Lilith and later reflected in characters like the cowgirl Jessie in “Toy Story 2.” "

I am hoping I didn't commit to anything today. I don't have anything on my calendar. My phone hasn't rung, so that's a good thing.

A biography of Whitney Houston seems to confirm this.

Let's see if this unwieldy link from googlebooks works:

https://books.google.com/books?id=-p1DCgAAQBAJ&pg=PA17&lpg=PA17&dq=%22whitney+houston%22+%22whitney+blake%22&source=bl&ots=xSH8OpZyvk&sig=7hS8lFiLS-40FVYikvVnvsRlLgs&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0CEUQ6AEwDmoVChMIxfv-zIKaxwIVCygeCh23Aw5r#v=onepage&q=%22whitney%20houston%22%20%22whitney%20blake%22&f=false
