I'm amazed how many Hollywood personalities have a Russian Jew background. Feels like 90%

Some interesting stories (for me anyway) about how Jewish actors, producers etc got started in Hollywood back in the day, changing their names so as not to divulge their jewishness.

The Three Stooges were Jews. One thing I've noticed though about most American Jews is that many don't follow Jewish traditions regarding burials. In Toronto 100% of my Jewish friends families used Jewish Funeral homes exclusively for burying their dead, in Jewish cemetaries.
In California I see many Jews using traditional Funeral homes.

I've been to Jewish funerals in Toronto, closed casket etc. very different to traditional funerals.
 
What makes someone a "racist"? Do you have to say something racist? What if you just think racist things but never act on them or say anything racist?

Also, why do white people take most of the flak for racism? Don't chinks and niggers say/do racist things?

Actually "nigger" is only offensive to black persons when a non-black person uses it. I hear blackfolk call each other nigger all the time and they don't shoot each other for it.

yes pretty much I looked it up, because I'd never heard it simply put that way. That seems to be the way our metabolism works. you also pee or sweat some out too. but we exhale the majority of it.

and apparently even doctors didn't know this either. So don't feel bad Dr. Lawyer

When we lose weight, where does it go?

Nearly all the weight we lose is exhaled.

Even the 150 doctors, dietitians and personal trainers we surveyed shared this surprising gap in their health literacy. The most common misconception by far, was that fat is converted to energy. The problem with this theory is that it violates the law of conservation of matter, which all chemical reactions obey.

Some respondents thought fat turns into muscle, which is impossible, and others assumed it escapes via the colon. Only three of our respondents gave the right answer, which means 98% of the health professionals in our survey could not explain how weight loss works.

The correct answer is that fat is converted to carbon dioxide and water. You exhale the carbon dioxide and the water mixes into your circulation until it’s lost as urine or sweat.

If you lose 10kg of fat, precisely 8.4kg comes out through your lungs and the remaining 1.6kg turns into water. In other words, nearly all the weight we lose is exhaled.
