Dead Zone

No club is reading this yet — be the first to start one
Izzy Gam wants to be buried on the Mount of Olives, known as "the number one place for a Jew to be buried", as the resurrection is supposed to begin there. Unfortunately, it turns out that his planned resting place is already occupied, as is every other place in Israel that his increasingly flustered family tries to put him.
