Att: CD

As my sole reader, I direct this post to you. and only you. cuz i love having one frequent reader.

Why does G-d make life so hard for some pp?

Why can't someone buy me a car?

Why do aufrufs and shabbos kallahs exist?

Is there a specific purpose behind Jewish marriages?

Why do some pp have such a strong hold on life while others are completely... lost?

That's all for now.

I expect answers post weekend! After my Shabbos Kallah in yuhupitz.

Thanks.

The Palestinian foreign minister yesterday agreed to an international peace conference with Israel — the first time the Hamas-led government has indicated it would consider making amends with the Jewish state. - The Herald, Nov 13, 2006

I was born with a huge disadvantage. Something that will color the way I look at the Israeli/Arab conflict for the rest of days. Other people can be objective and forgiving, but I find that I simply can not handle these ludicrous headlines popping up every couple of years. I have an Israeli parent and my viewpoint will forever be skewed and farkoked.

I'm sure this novel idea was announced quite by coincidence right when Olmert arrived to the States to discuss our policy with Bush. Coincidence. Argh.

O and for an interesting opinion piece on religion, make sure to check out Elton John in the Observer. Poor angry gay English pop star. You can't really blame him.

Great photo -- we're going to run it as one of our rotating banners this week for our LITERATURE issue. Of course we'll credit you as the photographer and put your flickr account there too.

Again -- compliments, amazing work.
