Who's Schmooie?

I moved out West a few years back to obtain a fancy edumacation. In the process, I told all my new friends in that new place out West to find me a nice Jewish boy. I was living in a modern city, but much to my astonishment, my friends told me I was the first Jewish person they had ever known. Well, I still do live in that very modern city even though most of those friends have moved back to their respective home-states. Surely, Schmooie must be in this city somewhere?
Then a year and a half ago, I did something rather stupid. I moved to Mississippi. How the heck was I going to find Schmooie in a place where I had to explain what a “latke” was? Good grief, I actually had a customer who’s name was “Bris.” He was 3 years old. It was hard keeping a straight face when talking to his mother. Perhaps he was named after a delicious slice of brisket his mother ate when she was pregnant. No one believed me when I later tried to explain to my Southern classmates what a “bris” was in the Jewish religion. They thought perhaps that I was some sort of witch doctor. Schmooie, you probably don’t live in Mississippi, do you?
Now, I’m in the process of moving back to that very modern city out West. I need a job and I need to locate Schmooie. Sometimes it’s a frustrating fruitless process that makes me want to strangle Schmooie once I do find him. This blog details all my attempts to locate Schmooie where ever I go.
Who is Schmooie, you ask? Schmooie is the man of my dreams; that knight in shiny armor, that Prince Charming (not Prince Charles). Schmooie is Mr. Right. I’m just searching for Schmooie.

  2. If you find Schmooie, let me know if he's got a Gentile cousin, would you? ;)
