I can still remember the Christmas when my mother gave me a hollowed out .45 caliber bullet on a golden chain to wear around my neck. At the time, with typical teenage arrogance, I thought it was a dumb idea; how wrong I was and how wise my mother was.Shortly after receiving my gift, I was walking north on Sixth Avenue in New York City (Avenue of the Americas to all the tourists that want to correct me) and an evangelical conference was going on across the street.
Things got a little heated and…it just had to happen in violence prone America…a bible was thrown. The bible flew across the street heading right toward me and…..
…..if it hadn’t been for that bullet that bible would have gone right through my heart.
I realized then how special that .45 caliber cartridge was and decided that it was meant for the world. So I grabbed a taxi to Central Park.There I was in one of the most beautiful spots in New York City, but all the trees had lost their leaves and were bare.I took the bullet from around my neck and strung it from the highest branch that I could reach in the highest tree I could find.And so it was that I gave New York City the first gift of Christmas…..A Cartridge in a Bare Tree.

Well, they were all Jewish, so giving raises should have happened for Hannukah.
