Hi again!
Help feed the hungry in Israel!
Last shabbat we had guests from one of the seminaries. They were very nice young ladies; six in all, two of whom stayed with us. Shabbat day they were supposed to 'trade off', and two other were supposed to come to our place. However, the weather was nasty and they got lost on their way to our place ... so they turned around and went back to where they had been staying overnight. This shabbat we're supposed to have another strong storm (it's already started, and knocked out our power for two and a half hours).
משנכנס אדר, מחפשים עבודה... In ongoing job-market upheaval: I am now officially unemployed. So if you know of a position for a grumpy forty-something software wizard, please don't hesitate to send them my resume. I'm actually thinking of setting up shop helping people wean themselves off evil Microsoft products and save money at the same time. Speaking of evil MS products, a geek in Poland has managed to get Windows 3.1 running on a Nokia N95 phone -- the only question that comes to minds, "why?"...
Anti-semitism:
- Holland shoes our reservist. News slammed as anti-Israel
- America still holds Pollard prisoner after 24 years. On the same day that Jonathan Pollard was arrested , a Chinese gentleman was arrested for spying for Red China. That gentleman was released a long time ago. He committed the same kind of crime for an enemy state. Do Chinese have better status than Jews, or are all men created equal? Indeed the Americans want to use Pollard as a bargaining chip for 1967 border final status settlement or something like that. What other reason could it be? Pollard is a second Gil'ad Schalit.
- The UAE is not alone, just honest
- Muslim love
- Canada's got 'em too
Misc
- good demographic news
- need a car?
- America: look behind you!
- Gaydamak is a turd
Arab:
Until next week,
Shabbat shalom!
