Go Go Go Joseph!

So the past few weeks of Parashot have involved the Joseph story (Joseph was taken to Egypt in chains and sold/Joseph was taken to Egypt in chains and sold), and I've had a hard time listening to Torah study because I keep getting songs from Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat stuck in my head.

I mentioned this to one of our rabbis, who kind of curled her lip in polite disdain. I don't think she's an Andrew Lloyd Webber fan.

I didn't intend to be either, but Cats came out when I was a 1o-year-old with a subscription to Cat Fancy magazine, and Phantom of the Opera came out when I was a pudgy, overly-romantic 14-year-old, so I hope I can be forgiven the nostalgia value.
