So you add to the insult, by adding in the old notion that Jews are cheap,
and only buy wholesale?
As to etymology, it is meaningless, and Foss should be more careful w/ his
use of slurs as jokes in public placess, or put in parenthesis *sarcasm*
or something. It is print not speach and there is no inflection to tell
what he means, so why should I take it at anything but at face value.

I'm not the overly sensitive Jew this may sound like, but I expect better
from this list.
