Mendele Personal Notices & Announcements Oct. 16, 2009 To minimize wear and tear on the untershames, three requests:
1. Send time-sensitive notices well in advance. 2. Send material as plain text: no HTML, other coding, or attachments; and be sure to write MENDELE PERSONALS in the subject line. 3. Correspond directly with the person who or organization which has posted the notice, *not* with your ever-beleaguered untershames. _______________________________________________________________________ Date: Sat, 10 Oct 2009 22:55:19 -0400 From: Alan Shuchat <[email protected]> Subject: Miami Beach Rhumba lyrics Does anyone know the Yiddish lyrics to Miami Beach Rhumba (music by Irving Fields, lyrics by Albert Gamse)?
