The Dizengoff Blader

If you sit at an outdoor table at a café on Dizengoff Street on a Friday you will see a tall man glide by on roller-blades. He is young, (in his twenties), and wears a crisp black suite. He has a beard and a large black hat and listens to music through small ear-phones, tucked into his ears. Over his shoulder he holds a large yellow flag with a large black crown. Bellow the crown the there is Hebrew writing. The flag signifies the belief that the now deceased Lubaviche Rebbe was/is the Messiah. You can see his roller-blading follower on Friday afternoons on Dizengoff Street, gliding along or waiting at the lights.
