someday i will throw up. my questions. and thoughts on faith. for now, that previous post is just like a little dangling skin tag or vestigial organ or preemie in a Jar.
Don't forget to read the comments on these posts, especially if you have posted a comment-- sometimes someone brilliant (or perverse or rapacious) will comment on your comment. What fun.
Today is Thursday, Yom Hamishi (day 5) of the week. Tomorrow I go to Jerusalem, as I do almost every Shabbat, to be a part of a new minyan that prays together in my neighborhood on Shabbat. Besides having a coveted seat on the minyan's Council of Elders, I am the Gabbai, which means that I make announcements, push guys out of the way when they are obstructing the ladies' walkway, keep my eye out that everyone is happyish and comfortable. Most importantly, I run the Torah service, assigning aliyahs and giving blessings in a way that I would describe as amateurish, but my friend Raz, who is the Rav of the minyan (but don't tell him that) calls, "filled with wonder."
To which a friend of mine added (in my voice) -- "I wonder what I'm supposed to do up here."
Shabbat Shalom!!!
tell someone you love them today. Even if you don't mean it. (no-- mean it)

Don't know who you are, but thanks for the information.
I feel better about Nephew's learning.
He has a lot to contribute.
