Oh my goodness, we were just talking about them today. Jewish
and Italian, I do not know why. I think the discussion started in
reference to the movie Goodfellas. You never saw plastic covered
furniture? They even came up with stuff that had breathable holes
all over so when you sat down, WHOOSH all the air came out.

Sorry if anyone is offended, it's just true. Funny as hell.
