I enjoyed picking oranges on the kibbutz. There were some beautiful women on the kibbutz. I learned how to say uni lo medaber eevreet which is I don\'t speak Hebrew. I had my Bar-Mitzvah in 1973. My poetry book on amazon is Wisdom From A Phool. I cured my aunt of lung cancer in 1992 with taheebo. It is inner tree bark from the rainforest in Brazil. It is also known as pau d\'arco. It is in Toronto health food stores. Sometimes you have to take a lot of it to get results. Be Well.
