My MQ (Manliness Quotient) was well above normal this week, while Esther’s FQ (Fell Questions) kept me on track:
I replaced a ceiling fixture in our kitchen, changing the dying fluorescent one with a spanking new LED one. The kitchen is much brighter.
Then, I found a small container of the paint we’d used in our “salon”, so rather than repainting all the walls, I just touched-up the parts messed up by the A/C installer. Hopefully, it’ll blend in after a few days.
Not content with that, I removed the “tris” (internal slatted blinds) in our kitchen window, and stopped up the hole with drywall and patched it up. The rest of the week I was fixing up the surface of that wall and the rest of the walls in the kitchen, so we can paint them next week.
Turning my attention to the “BBQ chimney” project, I removed the bottom “tubes” and cut off the bottom, and scraped out a lot of fiberglass insulation. I hate that stuff! More manliness, next week (if I survive).
Various and sundry:
- Mallen asks: Is incompetence America’s biggest security threat?
- Along those lines, just this past week more than 150 US government servers were exposed to the internet.
- A thread on the Netanyahu vs Ronen Bar situation.
- And a thread with the highlights from the 7 October Parliamentary Commission (aka the “Roberts Report”).
I finally made the major release of 8th I’d been threatening. I’m sure there’s all sorts of indecently exposed bits that need love, but I had to get that monkey off my shoulders so I could turn my attention to more immediate matters.
We went for a medical visit near the “shuq” in Jerusalem, and had lunch afterwards at a new place, “Crispy Chicken”. The food was tasty and abundant, and less expensive than our accustomed favorite “Fish’en’Chips”. Recommended if you like fried chicken (and if you don’t, are you really human?).
Today Esther’s out with her knitting knuts; and as she’ll return later on, prepping shabbat is mostly on me. Thoughts and prayers!
This shabbat we (I) will cook up:
ḥallah,
Lancashire hot-pot,
various salatim,
tuna salad,
and ice-cream.
Until next time,
shabbat shalom!
