About Arjewtino
Arjewtino is a Reformed Jew born in Argentina who swears he is a citizen of the U.S.
He has lived in DC since before you were in diapers (more specifically, 1999) but was born in Argentina and grew up in Los Angeles.
He has been busted for playing Minesweeper at work, hugged Alyssa Milano when he was 12, and was rumored to be the starting shortstop for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
His favorite animal is NOT the panda. He likes to yell at the microwave to hurry up. He aggressively shuns Jews for Jesus, and has foolishly swum in the Potomac River.

Though I enjoy educating non-Jews during the High Holidays, YK is not a good day to see them. They will eat in front of you, drink long, refreshing sips of cold water, discuss their favorite restaurants, ask you to accompany them on errands, or ...

This is what tough Jew lawyers look like
My favorite part about this photo is our “law office’s” Web site. Brilliant.
After LOLing like a school girl on Facebook seeing the photo, I started thinking about lawyers and lawyering and how easy being a law-doing...

Finding the Yom Kippur loophole in fasting |

Originally published on Arjewtino.com.
Fasting on Yom Kippur should never be this confusing.
For years, the rules of what you are NOT supposed to do on the Day
of Atonement just made sense, like a list of bullets you follow to the
letter:
No eating or drinking
No bathing
No applying oils or lotions to the skin (including deodorant)
No sex
No wearing leather
But this year, for some reason, I started questioning whether the “no drinking” edict was one I even had to follow.
What Yom Kippur really...

FEATURED USER POST: The great yarmulke experiment of 2008 |

As I promised, I conducted a social experiment yesterday in which I wore a yarmulke
all day just to see what would happen. I wasn’t sure what to expect.
But I was curious to see how the people around me would react and
whether I would feel any different with the “weight of God” atop my head.
As it turned out, it was much more entertaining than I could have predicted:
