pittsfield-jew

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?

working on reports

Jonny is working on sybase and informaker. It is a real pain. It keeps crashing. The good news is there is sql you get to edit.

Finished Shadow of the Hegemon. It prompted a huge diversion of internet reading. The book was excellent. It was 451 pages, which is partly a 10 page afterword. It is more a historical fiction book. More like futuristic historical fiction. More about China taking over the world. It turns out Orson Scott Card is a fantastic writer. He writes books about the women of the bible as well. What is more interesting is that torah scholars claim Rebekkah was 3 years old when she was married. So where is that in the story? Also why not write a book about eve and noah's wife? Anyway Orson Scott Card has 3 more follow on books in the Shadow series. This weekend plans include a fun day at Burns Park. This is a kinda fund raiser. Lorraine's previous softball coach is afflicted with a disease and this is a benefit for that cause. Also he was written up in a newspaper article. To Jonny he looks pretty healthy. But then again Jesse has always looked health despite all his frequent utilization of the health care system. Alberta needs to decide what to do about the summer very soon. Camp is expensive. Watched SNL skits last night and they were really funny. McCain with his imaginary friend Joe the Plumber and Simon who sleeps in a cigar box under his bed. And then Obama apologizing to the imaginary friend in the SNL skit debate.

    Sybase? You cannot be serious, in the words of John McEnroe!

    Surfed in to taunt over UM's football fortunes. Taunt, taunt, taunt.

    Posted an idea for a Great Lakes hugging Blogmeet. Damn few good bloggers up here in these here parts. Maybe somewheres around Put In Bay, I don't know.

    Also, I need to track down the dimbulb that's loading my daughter's NCSY group onto a bus headed for Detroit in November for a Shabbaton. They'd better not buy gas up in your state, or the Ghost of Woody will haunt.
