Tomer Israeli tells a tale of a condom...
There was a free AIDS test offered in the Hebrew University. As I passed through the area where it was given, some girl who worked there offered me to a free test. I refused because there is absolutely no risk. No needles, no sex.Then this girl offered me a free condom. I refused, telling her I have no use for it. She said: "Take it. It'll bring you luck."
The damn thing won't bring me luck. People make their own luck, but I took it anyway.
It brought my roommate some luck, I guess. He got a free condom.
I had a package of those sent to me in college. They served others quite well.
