>>JM, I love this! Too funny.... chutzpah, indeed. <<

...which leads to another thought, not unrelated. How many words in current usage in the English language have their origins in Yiddish?

And if Yiddish words are being used freely in English, how many of them are being used in, say, Spanish? I was delighted to see juanmaria's post include "Chutzpah". Do you use others, jm?
