And we'd no more expect you to be the Israeli view than we'd expect any of ourselves to give the U.S. view.
Of course; I thought it's worth repeating from time to time.
Sister news: she got a few days off the army after the ER, until they'll accept her in an army clinic to have a bunch of tests on her (in her case, EMG test). The ER doctor thinks it has to do with a problem in her electric innervation (no way I translated it right), but has no idea why.
She's furious. She never took any army sick days, because she's way over responsible to her army job. She doesn't want to take all of the sick days now, but she has no choice (mostly after my mom argued with her and made her come back).
Poor thing. She supposed to finish her service on November 1st, but she's thinking about continuing for a few months.
I highly recommend The Israelis: Ordinary People in an Extraordinary Land by Donna Rosenthal.
That's the book said Seattle host of mine read, Cashmere. It made her plan a journey from Lebanon to Israel.
Shir, my copy was a gift from a friend of mine who travelled there. She very much enjoyed her visit and wanted me to read it. My old neighbor still has family in Israel and travels there at least twice a year. I want to go someday.
What was that productivity site people were talking about a week or two ago? Where you entered the tasks you had to do, and then you finished them, and it made you feel better?
You're not talking about the Ultimate Productivity Blog, are you?
Dana, it's NowDoThis dot com.
Happy Birthday, Sail!

Shir, echoing what's already been said, I find your posts very interesting. Please don't hold back on what you want to say!
Heh, Tom. Not it, but thanks.
And thanks, Zenkitty!
Happy birthday, Sail!

Proof that the StuntHusband is EVIL INCARNATE: he just sent me the link about the L.A. Opera costume sale. That is happening on Saturday.
