I finally decided to post a picture of Bryan and I...decked out in our Purim finery. Hebrew tip of the day - Smurf in Hebrew is "dardas", so Bryan is Dardas-abba and I am Dardasit. The picture was taken in the quad at my medical school, where for reasons I have yet to understand there is a small statue of a tree that looks exactly like the Smurf tree. Maybe the Smurfs had mystical healing powers?

Noa --
Why you looking so blue? :-(
And ain't Bryan a bit tall to be a Smurf? I think he may be an impostor!
Merry Purim!
Fun Joel
Actually, Bryan is only a few inches taller than me. He's standing on a ladder in that pic, but you can't tell because his feet are cut off. rather flattering for Bryan. I, on the other hand, look like I have an enormous bum in that picture, and I DON'T, so I guess that pic is way unflattering for me. Oh well.
Aww...my roommate was Papa Smurf one year for Halloween, and she was adorable and so are you guys...
OT - I had my wisdom teeth out just on the other side of that quad.
Cute picture.
I had trouble posting a comment on your previous post - yes you were right to be peeved and maybe a bit of misinformation, or telling your vendors to say "Noa has something exclusive to her" might go a long way. At least the weddings are in different places.

wow. now that's messed up.
great picture!
Oh, so now when my mother asks me what he looks like (she has about five times now) I can tell her: blue. With a big white beard.
One thing though -- it is "I finally decided to post a picture of Bryan and me (or myself)" not Bryan and I. Just 'cos you're an Israeli now don't mean I'm gonna let it go.

Well, I just happened to stumble on to this blog by accident - I was looking for a place to get married in Jerusalem.
Anyway, as I myself am a student in this fine institution, concerning the "smurf tree" -
the true story is quite as comical.
The tree is a statue in memory of 4 students from Hadassah med school who were killed in a car accident a few years ago.
Sorry to spoil the otherwise funny picture.
Of course what I meant to say was the true story was "NOT quite as comical".
