Snorkle!
Jake Fuller Gainesville Sun May 17, 2008 |
I find it particularly annoying that while we can't criticize Obama without someone screaming "Racist!", Hillary is either an Unwomanly ball-breaking bitch who isn't fit to run the country or a woman, who is obviously, by virtue of her gender, too weak to run the country. While the political cartoonists only give Obama big ears, they nearly all show Hillary as a wizened, mean crone, or as a drill sergeant, or as a Gentile version of a Jewish Mother. She can't win [even when she does].

George's New Career after Leaving the Presidency?
His elocution would probably improve more if he read "Fox in Socks" about 50 times.
Israel Has Turned 60, and I'm 62
This photo was taken while visiting my Aunt Jenny in New York, on the day Israel's Independence was declared. I have some vague memories of all the adults--my Aunt Jenny and Uncle Harry, and my parents, laughing and crying while listening to the radio in the "front room" of the fifth floor, walk-up tenement flat on Avenue B and 4th Street. Next month, Jenny and Harry's granddaughter--a woman only 4 years younger than myself, her husband, and their two grown children (Jenny's great-grandson is the same age as my son) and son-in-law will visit Israel for the first time.

Yo, Big Mama!

Could this be why Hillary's having trouble corralling the votes? Obama talks airy-fairy stuff about "change" and we are called "racists" for pointing out that he's got no experience whatsoever, but Hillary is compared to a (oy gevalt!) Yiddishe Mama? (And a Yiddishe Mama's supposed to be a Bad Thing, you know.

A Confession
Wednesday night I surrendered and ate chametz.
Since the onset of Passover I had been having continual diarrhea and suffering two to three severe hypoglycemic attacks per day.
This is a bit odd, since the usual problem for diabetics with the Passover diet is that they ingest too much carbohydrates -- one half a regular piece of matzah is the equivalent of a full slice of bread. Potatoes and rice (for those, like me, who eat kitniyot) just don't satisfy the way a nice thick slice of bread, heavily buttered, and preferably hot out of the oven, does.
Maybe it was too much gefilte fish, rather than the matzah, which tied my kishkes in knots; or rather, untied all the knots and greased the intestinal runway.
Ah well, I'm sure God understands, and hey, I'm in the Holy Land anyway, so maybe He'll think I've done my bit already
