Purim torah!

[cellio]

It's the season of Purim Torah on Mi Yodeya. Here are some of my favorites:

From this year:

• My answer to a question asking what Birkat Amazon is and what giving thanks after a meal has to do with amazon.com

• What are we supposed to do about losing an hour of Purim this year? (I answered that one too)

• Why do we shake four heretics on Sukkot? (on Sukkot we shake the "four species", different plants; the word for "species" resembles the word for heretics)

• Can one go back in time to complete a minyan?

And some from past years:

• Perl programming in the Torah

• Surviving the zombie apocalypse

• Using the Force on Shabbat

• Rejecting others' friend requests on Facebook

• And one I had a lot of fun answering, Why don't Jews accept Our Lord and Savior?

There are a lot more where those came from, and the season continues for about the next two weeks.
