Stick a fork in us

We are done

It's official. Israel has become a watered down, highly pathetic, and very poorly dressed copy of Ameropue.

I get the whole celebrity obsession thing in America. In the States, if you can't find something to excite you then life gets boring. Some people get excited by fishing, others learning, and some people (O.K., just women) get their kicks out of flipping the pages of PEOPLE.

But in Israel you don't need to look far for excitement. In fact, life would be a whole lot better if it were a tad more boring. Shouldn't nonstop violence lend some perspective?

Somewhere in shamayim the Satmar Rebbe is telling Ben Gurion, "I told you so."

p.s. I know that I am a bit behind the times with this story. Gimme a break. I got two babies.

If you find yourself in need of a babysitter, you can certainly try me. I do have quite a few references in both Israel and the States :-P

chag kasher v'sameach.

p.s. I was going to stop by on Shushan Purim, but I didn't want it to seem wierd, a near-stranger dropping by unannounced, in costume no less.

As always, I very much enjoyed the post.
I'm in the holyland, and I heard that you are, as well. I assume you're pretty busy Erev Pesach, so I'll bl"n give you a call on chol hamoed. Have a Chag Sameach.
