I initially saw the above quote on a friend's Facebook and was immediately prompted to Google it, and thus came across this article.

It's the first article on the page, the one about David Mamet. Thoughts? Especially on the whole "prevalence among Jews" thing mentioned in the article?

If this belongs in the Entertainment forum I wholeheartedly apologize.

I don't know about the whole "prevelance among Jews" thing, but I do think he's got a good point. I'm molding my son into the next great film director as we speak . . .

YAY, David Mamet! I know of him mostly as a playwright and I've heard nothing but the best about his plays (and plays making fun of his plays :wink: ). I know what author I'm reading next!
