Hi again!

This week was the end of my Mom's trip to the Holy Land. We sent her back Monday night, and she arrived back in Seattle safely, B"H. Given it was her first trip outside the USA, she did well and we hope she'll decide to make the trip again. Now that she realizes that not all of us ride donkeys to work (but some of us do: I encounter a trio of donkey-riding Arabs every morning on my way to work). And she didn't have difficulties with security in the airport.

My friend Dov-Ber alerted me to the Seattle divestment campaign. When I read stuff like that, it makes me thank God that I moved to Israel when I did. I'm on all their "black lists" now: white, male, Jewish, Israeli and a "settler". All I'm missing now is to become a multinational corporation...


Shabbat shalom!
