BRUSH HIGH
GRADUATES PERMITTED
On Yom Kippur, a congregant approached me in shul and said I was cool. Why? “Because you went to Brush High,” he said.
What? Brush High was cool? Brush, in Lyndhurst, Ohio, was the one place you graduated from and never thought of again. It isn’t to be confused with Bronx Science, Cass Tech, Heights or Shaker.
I knew a few more Brush people at services. Off subject: Brush had outstanding science teachers — Frank Smith, biology; Ron Yarian, chemistry; Alfred Eich, physics.
There’s no Brush section in the shul on Yom Kippur. Maybe there’s a Heights section.
Maybe there’s no shul. My shul is totally on Zoom tomorrow, because of Covid. I’m totally Zoomed out. I’ll probably go to Solon Chabad. They have a big tent and let everybody in, including Brush grads.

The main thing is the importance of parking at least a mile away from the Chabad complex – car or bike. Or you could forgo the wheels altogether and walk….
L’Shana Tova to Bert and family.
