A dark day for Pandora lovers

Thursday, May 3, 2007

If, like me, you live outside the US, and rely on pulsating Pandora music to get you through the long work days and nights, you will understand my disappointment. The future of Internet radio is in grave danger. You can read about what is going on here. We in Israel are not able to do [...]

Ray Bradbury

Sunday, April 15, 2007

We need not to be let alone. We need to be really bothered once in a while. How long is it since you were really bothered? About something important, about something real?
I came across this quote today from Ray Bradbury on my Google homepage, and it reminded me how much I enjoyed reading Fahrenheit 451 [...]

How the mighty have fallen

Sunday, April 15, 2007

It’s a very sad day when your husband has to be the one to nominate you for the JIB (Jewish and Israeli blogs) Awards, but nominate me he has  - so, roll up your sleeves and start voting for me here! The nomination is for the category “Best Slice of Life in Israel Blog.” To those [...]

Future history

Thursday, March 29, 2007

Funky title for a blog, no? Well, it’s my husband’s blog, so head on over there and check it out. He wrote here on this site a month ago with a guest post that was, in my opinion, hysterical if not a little heretical. The title was “God is a mob boss.”
I know I am [...]

AidelMaidel is engaged!

Tuesday, March 27, 2007

Okay, perhaps there is something weird about me taking out some tissues when I read the news on AidelMaidel’s blog that she said “yes” to “Mr. Sky High.” I don’t know the woman, for heaven’s sake. Yet here I am crying with tears of joy for this ultra-Orthodox single mother of two.

Something you don’t see everyday in Modi’in

Thursday, March 15, 2007

Just when we were beginning to say our final goodbyes to winter in Israel, G-d delivered a surprise. It hailed today. Yes, hail. Here’s some pics of our backyard and my husband’s hand. (You can’t beat bumming around working from home - you get to take pics of your garden in the middle of the [...]
