Well, you learn something new every day. Not being Jewish, I could just watch this video and think, "What the hell????" But I looked 'sukkot' up on Wikipedia, and now I know more that I did when I woke up this morning. It also seems like the back of my brain is telling me that there was something about this in Anne Rice's novel "Christ the Lord: Out of Egypt," but I don't really remember.
Oh, when I say that there was something about it in Rice's novel, I mean the part about temporary shelters. I don't remember the shaking stuff at all.
Believe me, sometimes being Jewish you STILL think, "What the hell???" I am glad that you learned something new.
The new Billy Ray Sheet video about Sukkot is now online at http://one.revver.com/watch/410634. Enjoy!

Hey, Billy Ray Sheet here again. I now have a set of 4 Purim videos that tell the megillah story to a Beverly Hillbillies tune, with settings in the White House, ancient Persia, and the planet Naboo (Star Wars). You can see them in order here, here, here, and here. Enjoy!
