It all began two years ago today with this post, after my former blogging partner convinced me that I needed to start blogging again, following an approximately year-long hiatus brought on by my general inability to get my shit together multi-task on a grand level after the Little One was born. He even agreed to be my partner in crime, figuring that between the two of us, we...
Well, it’s now official. Amir Peretz, aka “The Mustache” is gone. Following nineteen painful months as Labor party leader, Amir Peretz has been voted out. The winner of yesterday’s Labor primaries is military man turned politician turned businessman turned politician Ehud Barak, who, quite frankly, does not make my socks roll up and down. I think I...
I’ve been busy busy busy these days, and it looks like I’m finally taking the freelance writing plunge, without actually giving up the dreary but lucrative technical writing. First, check out the post I’ve uploaded to my newest play area – Israelity. Be sure to let the powers that be know what you think. Feel free to leave comments here and there...
Since moving to our home in the north approximately ten years ago (though in this case “north” is open to interpretation, as some would refer to it as the “Northern Sharon” or simply as part of the ever-expanding boundaries of the “center”), we have done our best to take advantage of our proximity to some of the more beautiful parts of the...

Over the years, there’s one thing Israelis have done that always makes me laugh. They aren’t bashful about singing out loud, singing along with the radio, or basically about doing (or wearing!) anything in public that would make the average American cringe. The funniest, though, is definitely the singing, especially when the songs are in a language other than...
Once again, Prime Minister Olmert has proven that he cares more about himself and his own PR than about Israeli citizens. As qassam rockets continue to fall in Sderot and Israelis continue to get killed (yesterday’s innocent victim was the father of a young girl, and husband of a woman in her sixth month of pregnancy), Olmert has stated that he sees no reason why...
Well gag me with a spoon! It’s 80s Music Video Sunday, and if that’s not, like, totally gnarly, well frankly, I don’t know what is! Who can forget the invasion of the Valley Girls, introducing a variety of totally rad new words into the American lexicon. Like, for sure, we all got into it. I mean, back in those days, didn’t we all want to be, like...
