| - | '''Zach Wachs''' As Haganah’s Kohen Godol Sam Zuckert once said, “Look at him he is uneducated, he doesn’t have a penny to his name, and he spends his weekend hanging around with teenage boys.” That is a mostly partially accurate description of why Wachs should be advisor of the year. Clearly, there are better things he could be doing; he could be going somewhere where people don’t laugh at the words poop, vagina, penis, and any derivation off any of those words. However, he chooses to spend his time hanging around with us. He puts aside his social life and everything else, to come join us every so often. However, even if he can’t make it he’ll always make sure there is a parent there. But mainly he is able to connect with us and speak our language as he said in his own words, “Where’s the meeting at, g”, clearly he goes the extra mile, not only is he there, but he talks in a manner that today’s youth speak in. In doing so he is able to establish a deeper rapport between him the rest of Haganah. This is most important because any one armed blind monkey could come and sit and watch us making sure any of us are seriously killed, however it takes a special kind of advisor to keep us alive and be our friends, or perhaps even a brother, though he would be that brother who is like ten years older than you, but he still lives in his parents’ house and it seems that he is never going to actually get his life going.
