Subject: Kung Pao Kosher Komedy

 Two years ago, we attended the first evening of Kung Pao Kosher Komedy and
fell in love with Lisa Geduldig's comedy and her spirit.  Last year it was
even better. We have already reserved our tickets. We highly recommend this
Holiday treat for all Jews and non-Jews alike.. 
 Lisa emceed the variety show at the 1994 National PFLAG Convention in San
Francisco.
 Order early! This year will sell out again for sure. Also, feel free to pass
this along to other internet friends. They will thank you.  Please note the
date for Los Angeles Kung Pao at the end of this post.
