a little humor

Our good friend Steve, who married us, is in Israel on a trip for work. He is a pastor after all. He and his colleague made this very funny, well I find it funny, video. Enjoy.

Quite funny. Particularly if you imagine all these scholars inspecting that site and hypothesizing about what happened there and who lived there, etc. His theory about midgets, oops, little people (how is that any more PC?) is probably no more off the wall than some of the other theories all those scholars are coming up with...

Midget is a term that was originally coined in 1865, referring to an extremely short person with limbs similarly proportioned to his body as an average-size person's.[1] P.T. Barnum indirectly helped popularize "midget" when he began featuring General Tom Thumb in his circus. Dwarf was originally used to denote those with short limbs as compared to those who had proportioned limbs. Like many other older terms, "midget" has become part of popular language, although it was often used in a pejorative sense. When applied to a person who is very short, midget is now often considered offensive, an example of the euphemism treadmill.[2] Actor Hervé Villechaize insisted on being called a "midget" as opposed to a "little person", which irritated dwarf activists of the time.
