Oooh, penguins!
You were very nearly devoured by a giant demon snake. The words 'let that be a lesson' are a tad redundant at this juncture.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Brought to you by "it's morning, and I'm having too much thoughts, but look, penguins!"
Well, that makes my day.

ION, headdesk.
I read something very interesting this morning: apparently Israel did warn Gaza dwellers to get out of there when the op started, but apparently Hamas warned them that if they'll do, they'll get shot. By Hamas people.

Do you have a link for this? Also, where were they supposed to go?

I read it on Ynet (the Hebrew version of it is much more balanced than the English one), which rarely translates and if it does it only translates the most rightist articles, but I'll try to find a link in English.
Where were they supposed to go? Excellent question. I guess the answer is somewhere along the lines of "nobody really cares, they don't count as human beings".

Sorry, Hil, I can't find a link in English.
And also, mother of all AARRRGGGGHH: Sirens were heard 3 minutes ago in Qiryat Shmona in the north. Maybe rocket launching from the north. I'm waiting for updates.

I'm feeling dehydrated again. Not sure why this keeps happening. I've been tested for all the usual causes, and everything looks fine. Just suddenly guzzling water and still feeling really dry.
The predictions for what DC will be like during inauguration keep getting crazier. Really seems like this city just isn't big enough to hold all of the people who are going to be here. They're cutting off traffic to huge portions of the city. I'm kind of torn between wanting to be a part of it and wanting to hide from the crowds. I think I might try to go to some of the pre-inauguration stuff, maybe that'll be a little less crowded than inauguration day.

Yep. Rockets did land in north of Israel. Joy.
Hil, I hope you'll feel better. And I can relate to your feeling, but maybe because I'm not really an urban type. Jerusalem is the only city I ever felt comfortable living in.

Oh, great.
There was some newscast or TV program or something I watched a few years ago, that had one segment where an elderly Arab Israeli man walked a reporter around the remains of the village where he grew up, and then they were sitting on a bench on the beach (I'm pretty sure it was in Tel Aviv), talking about the situation. Elderly man says, "...and peace will be good for everyone -- good for the Jews, good for the Muslims,..." Random surfer dude walking by adds, "Good for the surfers!" Elderly man, without missing a beat, continues, "...good for the surfers, good for everybody." It was hysterical. I'm trying to find this clip again, but I can't remember enough about the program to get the right search terms.
