The first post says it all Shalom, This is the home of the Pittsfield Jew. Sure its neat to read about Jews in Brooklyn who are very observant but how about a not so observant Jew who lives in the Mid West?

Jewish News

Today I have been listening to www.radi-yo.co.il. I would expect a link to the station on my blog if it is not there already, I talk about this link all the time. They have free downloads. I have been writing down the song titles in Hebrew on a piece of paper. I also go into their chat room. There I try and understand what they are saying in Hebrew, without vowels.

R has been reading my book a Commentary on The Torah in Hebrew. L was in the car with us and she got a little annoyed. R has started with Bereshit and plans to read the whole thing.

I printed out read all the Rabbi Biggs and Fax of Life emails since September 18 or thereabouts. So now I am caught up on that. I am still reading the end of the book. I have about 15 pages to go then I will be done and like on Simchat Torah we start again. I am glad I read all of Kings. Because there is some commentary on it. King Joshia was the best King in the eyes of the devout Jews since he read the forgotten scroll that is part of the last parsha. He tried to clean up the lack of observance prevalent by the other Kings. I am so looking forward to reading the next book in the Tanach.

What R said about my wedding still hurts my feelings. It was true I was standing there under the chupah 13 years ago and the Rabbi said ".. in the midrash ..." R was right I was thinking sarcastically "oh boy Midrash". I probably didn't even capitalize it in my mind's eye. She has it lucky since she goes to a Hebrew Day School. I also gotta get back to practicing my Hebrew. I occasionally practice my flash cards at the stoplights. I also read a couple of the Hebrew words in the book as I am reading the parsha. Well not at the same time if you know what I mean.

Well this post has gone on long enough. Back to my EB ford program. No trailer record in the output file? Why is that?
