Everybody needs a kosher snack 

The Yiddish, and unreleased version of Bruce Springsteen's Hungry Heart, written well before he was famous and when he was on a kick to appeal to Hasidic Jews in Brooklyn. Here are the know lines to that song:

Got a wife and kid in Williamsburg, Irv, I went out for a nosh, never said a word. Everybody needs a Kosher snack, bagel with a schmear, not a breakfast jack. A good knish or a matzo brei, a piece of lox that is not too dry.

Everybody needs a Kosher snack, from Borough Park down to Hackensack. Like the Nile when it doesn't flow, I got such gas that I gotta go. Everybody needs a kosher snack, take one now and then bring one back.

Oy, Oy, Oy, Oy, Oy
Springsteen's ``The Jew Years'' featured Everybody needs a kosher snack.

Dick Urban 

The mythical Father of the Urban Dictionary, born and nurtured by his disciples, who ever moment of the day find meaning in the meaningless. An earthy dude in a foul mood who was at once a crude and rude. He said what was on his mind and then opened the forum to the world.
They ought to build a statue for Dick Urban, a man who got away with words.
