I am trying to sell my car.
It lives in Atlanta.
2001 Mitsubishi Mirage DE 2-Door Coupe (almost typed "soup"-- aw hell, if you buy the car, I will buy you a can of hot soup! Hot in the can even!)
It's a sportyish little stick shift thing, comfy, fun to drive, good mileage, etc etc
$4037.72 (plus 627 Romanian Lei for fees, approx 9 cents US)
if you know ANYONE interested, let them and me know!!!!!!
thanks.

I just noticed that i say "...Heh" a lot recently. Is that bad? Is it annoying? Is it a sign of my increasing cynicism? Arrogance? Emotional remove from the world? Should I be worried? Or is it just a little trademark of that indomitable WanderingStu style? Did I spell that correctly? ...heh.

Yesterday we had a meeting with all the guys who are starting the Smicha program here at the Yeshiva. Smicha means "becoming a Rabbi." Samuch means "leaning, resting, relying on." Smicha refers to the ancient ceremony, as seen in such famous books as The Bible, in which authority is transmitted to the next generation by the elder laying his hands on the head of the new leader. It also suggests that the Rabbi now gives his support to the young initiate, or possibly that the tradition in the elder Rabbi's hands is not resting on the new Rabbi, who will carry it into the future.
In our meeting yesterday, no one touched anyone. We just discussed a few details about the next 4-5 years. It's an exciting time in the Yeshiva. We haven't had a large group of guys working on becoming Rabbis together, as a group, in a while. Right now there are 7 or 8 guys, with at least one more coming in February. Auspicious beginnings.
By my car.

Is this a blog, or is this e-bay?

I think you've got a typo: shouldn't it read: "...or possibly that the tradition in the elder Rabbi's hands is now resting on the new Rabbi..."?

I guess it depends on how good the New Rabbi is... if he's a clown and a slacker, like the kind who allows egregious typos to stay in his blog, then maybe he's NOT absorbing the tradition, eh?
