“Not dead yet!”

That will get all over the Twilight bed sheets.

Oh come on, how could you tell? I'm sure those sparkle as well.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

This is pretty cool: Early Carol Burnett on The Ed Sullivan Show

If this is truly 1957 as stated (and I have no reason to doubt it), then this is two years before Burnett got her first major break in the Broadway musical Once Upon a Mattress, although she had done some television work beforehand. This is ten years before her immortal self-titled show would hit as a series. And I can't quite tell, frankly, how parts of her routine are going over with the audience. I'm wondering if they knew what to do with her, frankly. But I think it's great. Hints of the mayhem that was to come.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I am wishing safety for you and yours, Nilly and Shir. I also wish for truce and talking to come soon.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Oh! There are chances my sis would be home tomorrow for 48 hours!

Buffistas~ma for this would be very, greatly appreciated. I'm not sure when was the last time Little Fiend had rest, or even grabbed a shower.

And an update: IDF put cannons outside of the Strip, first time in 12 months. Egypt shot dead a person from the Strip, trying to escape.

I can't believe my country has so much to do with the hell over there.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Oh, Nilly and Shir, our thoughts are with you and everyone there. I hope reason and peace can prevail.

{{hugs you all}}

I'm about familied out, here. My brother's been staying with me for a week and it's been pretty constant family time since last Saturday, other than the day after Christmas, which I spent in bed. I love my family but I'm so used to my alone-time it's kind of hard to deal with the constant presence of people.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Update: Egyptian officer was shot dead while fighting Palestinians trying to breach through the crossing.

Now I'm thinking: do you guys need a map for all of those updates? I'm name dropping a lot of places.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

More updates:

First, The Gaza-Sderot blog is back in action.

Second, in here, the Post is refusing to make it to the Surround Gaza zone. (4.5km from the Strip's border.) The doctors of the night medical centre - also. Public transportation is failing. Phone lines damaged by rockets had not been fixed.
