I have a daughter and family in Elizabeth, moving soon to Teaneck. Many friends' sons have attended yeshiva in Passaic. Small world. :) gw

Richard, thanks for your faith in this one... I just entered one titled 'Their Main Squeeze' (Aug. 26), however. We'll see what happens. Thanks again. Best wishes, Gershon
