but it just isn't hitting that flow at the moment.....
sorry it's been slack lately. signal issues don't help, nor does a busy schedule and bad time management and my general running-aroundness.
i just was reading some old wanderingstus, from last month and last year-- it's good stuff folks, you're right.. so i will try to keep it up more so, and more deep and real as well.
i've been toying with the idea of doing more thinking here on the page, and less brooding...

so what's new?
here at yeshiva, I've been pushing into the Zman (Hebrew for "semester" or "learning term"), wrestling with issues of freedom and tradition, openness and boundaries, milk and meat. finding the deep, glorious core of grandiosity that is this creature they call Shimshon Stuart (Bennett) Siegel. Fighting apathy, both within and without. Stacking cans of mushrooms and jars of tahina (my work-study duties). Sleeping later than I'd like. Making nice with friends, getting deeper and closer as we experiment together with these two crazy ideas: Life and Torah. Or is that just one idea.
Pesach Ben Tzion (a/k/a Zack Bennett Rothberg), the other South Florida guy here (also Rav Daniel Kohn is from Pompano), is getting married in a week. He asked me to be the announcer at his wedding. This will be my third wedding as the Man with the Microphone. I think I am also doing my roommate David Fuchs' wedding in December, and then I will be kicking a little Hocus Pocus at Jason and Sarah's wedding in Palm Beach in Florida. For a guy who is so intimately involved in so many weddings......

"...I sure do have nice, fresh breath and clean, dry hands."
"you'd think i'd know the words to Od Yishama by now"
(this was the best of several, ranging sublime to ridiculous with punchlines as tasteless as "you'd think i had more class than to order a stripper for the bedeken" to as lame as "it would seem i would no longer require dramamine while watching the kallah circle the chatan")
