Jewish New Year's Coming (1989)

1989 Dry Bones cartoon -Soon it'll be the Jewish New Year, when we Jews declare our sins... the rest of the year there's the UN

This year the Jewish New Year (Rosh HaShana) begins at sundown on September 22, 2006.
I'm forever getting into arguments with otherwise knowledgeable Jews in Israel who claim that Rosh HaShana marks the date on which the World was created.
Wrong.
Rosh HaShana marks the creation of Adam and Eve.

On the other hand it's hard to find a Jew here in Israel who would argue with my low opinion of the UN.
