It's' Everywhere

From my pleasure reading (THe Jew in the Lotus, Rodger Kamenetz, p.140)

"For example, the philosophy of Maimonides is extremely similar to Buddhist philosophy."

It really is everywhere. Maybe I was right, back in high school, that I really needed to play with Medieval Jewish texts, etc.

I don't really remember, honestly. I do remember being quite miffed at the rabbi who made jokes about KY Jelly in his lecture afterwards.

He did? I didn't even notice such jokes. Or if I did, they must have sort of bounced off without much attention. What sort of jokes could he possibly have made?
