Though I barely write any diarys or comments, I didn't see this anywhere and I'm still getting my mind around it.
A little bit of background...I grew up and still live in the St Louis area. We don't have much of a Jewish community. I remember when I was in school (in the 80's), there was only one Jewish girl in my class (that I knew of). Religious diversity is not very common here.
Tonight I was making dinner, half paying attention to the local news, when I heard something that I was just sure couldn't be true. After dinner, I went to my computer and looked it up. Yep...one of our local middle schools had spirit week this week and one of their special days was "hit a Jew day".
