HAPPY HANAKAUH
I bought my first holiday tree. It’s blue, I guess twelve inches tall, and I’m looking for a rhinestone peace sign to put on it, along with a crystal snow flake. It’s on the coffee table next to the menorah. I did think a lot about the symbolism of a tree, and it just seems seasonal to me, as in I will keep it on the table all winter, to pretend that we’re having winter. Weird seeing people on the street in sweatshirts in December.
People say Jews dominate the media. No, but we do dominate the film industry. Read in Jewtopia that De Niro is half. But if we go back in time to when the film industry was new, Jews were first coming to America in large numbers. Jews who were lucky enough to graduate college couldn’t work in most large firms.
As the film industry was new, Jews could work in it. People don’t usually look at history to understand why some ethnic groups dominate some industries. Oh, I’m too tired to write….Lucky for you/
I have no time until Tuesday. Life has sort of caught up with me. Three things to write by Monday, a family reunion and two must make a fifteen minute appearance at parties. I hope that this loads
My blog is loading very very very slowly. Here’s another joke that Lucia sent me that the whole world has probably seen but me. It might not be a joke. I can be slow you know
The Supreme Court has ruled that there cannot be a Nativity Scene
in Washington, D.C. this Christmas season. This isn’t for any religious
reason, they simply have not been able to find three wise men and a
virgin in the Nation’s capital.
There was no problem, however, finding enough asses to fill the
stable.
Good joke. Happy Hannukah, too.
baddum bum! I think I’m chuckling even harder because it’s so true.
Happy Chanukah and Chag Sameach my friend. Enjoy the reunion and the rest of the weekend. Best ~ G
Happy Hannukah, Pia!!!!
I have been working a lot of overtime and no time to blog… but I am sneaking to read you while I am at work… Miss ya! 🙂
Happy Hanukkah!
We got Ann Landers
And her sister, Dear Abby
Harrison Ford’s a quarter Jewish
Not too shabby
My last name is Jewish… My middle name is Jewish. My son’s name, first middle and last (since the middle and last are the same as mine) are Jewish.
Yet…
I’m Lutheran and I was born on Christmas…
(Neat joke… Is the Clinton Administration back in charge…lol j/k) Happy Holidays!!!
Happy Hannukah, Pia.
None of us are what other people think we are, or even exactly what we think we are. So, for the next week, I choose to be Jewish. Bring on the gelt!
P.S. Regan’s out at Harper-Collins. Murdoch’s writing a book about it: “If I Did It (And Why It Would Have Taken Me So Long)”
Happy Hanukkah pia, have a lovely blue tree kind of weekend.
Time is premium these days for many people I think.
Soak it all in and enjoy what you can.
Loads fine for me.
