… of Linkachu, what say you? Take a gander at the connection to this week’s parsha. Ya know, make it … count. Oy, that was terrible. Wish I could take it abacus. Oy, that was worse. My number’s up. Okay, I’m done here. Shabbat shalom, everyone!

Balak

… a look at this week’s parsha. This is what I’m wearing this week, and it’s another of my rebustories (that’s what I’m calling my “rebus plus” arrangements, unless someone can “neologize” something better). Can you determine the connection? Have fun! Shabbat shalom!

Chukat

Hi! Were you able to decipher what the links were last week? I took hi-res pictures! They were globes, representing the Earth, which swallowed up Korach and his fellow mutineers.
Now quick, translate—ahem—the meaning of these to this week’s parshas. Okay, off to shul! I have like, one minute less than last week, and I’m in a total hurry. Shabbat shalom, everyone!

Korach

… Linkalevio (Dating myself big-time with that one), shall we? What on earth could the connection to the parsha be here? Almond telling you, it’s a bit tough to swallow whole, but it will make incense if you give it some thought. Ha!
Shabbat shalom, everybody!

Shelach

Hi! Last week’s cufflinks were the menorah, which the parsha spent the first few pesukim discussing. Lots of folks told me they couldn’t quite make out the picture. I’ll do better! Did you know that 94% of modern photographs are taken by smartphone? I think that’s interesting too.
Now I spy with my little eye…cufflinks that have something to do with this week’s parsha. Can you guess what…They Might Be? Man, my Dad Jokes are on the…fringe. Scout’s…honor.
Okay, enough. Shabbat shalom, everyone!

Behaalotecha

Hi! I davened in a different shul last Shabbat morning to attend a simcha, and during the kiddush, EVERYone approached me to give me their best cufflink guess (The barber poles, for the Nazir’s after-program). I like Teaneck/Bergenfield.
Do you want to play? A game? There’s lots going on in this week’s parsha, but these tie in to one set piece. I’m not doing any puns this week because my kids have had enough. I mean, hey, that’s just how eyeroll. Nyuk nyuk nyuk! Shabbat shalom, everybody!

Naso

Hi! The chagim are creating all sorts of clipped deadlines, but I’m doing my “buzzt” to make them all. Pshew! Just made the … cut. By a … hair. Best I could do off … the top of my head. You know the drill. Mullet over. Shabbat shalom, “shaverybody!”

Shavuot

It’s time to play This Is Your Link! BRIElieve it or not, I’m gonna go out on a LIMBURGER, and say this has RICOTTA be the easiest tie-in ever. Yes, WHEY! HERVE a GOUDA chag, everyone! Enjoy the learning, and the GRATE foods on ORDA!

Bechukotai

… stop! Shabbat shalom everybody!
Gladius this is over, huh? Think you could claymore cleaver ones that are scimitar to mine? Man, I need to cutlass puns for my own good.
OK OK, done for real. That was epeec. Ragnaroked it, though I went a little over … broad.

Behar

… and this is the first time I had to present cufflinks for Behar. Have no fear! There must be at least 50 references in the parsha that are connected to these and I’m sure you can name them all. Go.
Enjoy the challenge and Shabbat Shalom!

Emor

Hi! Last week’s cufflinks were the Ravenclaw crest cufflinks from the Harry Potter mythos. Because the parsha warns multiple times against the use of sorcery, you could get in trouble with He Who Is Named.
David Roher, who should be familiar to readers from the pages of this paper, tried a different angle: “Never more!,” he said, “As in forbidden in this week’s parsha.” Very clever!
And now for another round of Roblinx, whaddya say? It’s a single parsha again this week, which is suddenly common these days (Yay, leap years!). You deserve a lay-up after …

Kedoshim

… found cuff links that were relevant to both parshiyot; this time it’s heavily weighted towards one because that makes sense. More hints, I’m not giving you.[*] Thanks for playing, and Shabbat Shalom!
[*] That’s either me regressing to Brooklynese or it’s Yodaspeak. You decide.
