Some Quickies...

Mazel tov to one of my favorite blogs - from Kew Gardens Hills, no less - BeyondBT on reaching 100,000 hits (and closing in on 300K pageviews). Keep up the good work, Mark and David! (And the Steelers stink - ha!)

Jameel has a great fictional story at Elster's StoryTellers blog - do I sense a little Dan Brown? :)

I'm hoping to follow up soon on two subjects, primarily: Jewish debt/economics (thanks, Shifra, for starting this) and education. I'll still be discussing everything as always, but those are the ones I'd like to focus on. All thoughts are encouraged and welcome.

And, how many people (besides Scraps) know [without looking!] what to respond to "Moadim L'Simcha!"? I only learned this a few years ago...

    Picked this up from a mutual friend of the family in Shaalvim over Yom Tov my first year in E"Y. Have been enamored w/ it ever since.

    A friend of mine and I sometimes go back and forth through the end of the paragraph, like this:

    "Moadim l'simcha"
    "Chagim u'zmanim l'sasson"
    "Et yom Chag haSukkot hazeh"
    "Zman simchatenu, mikrah kodesh"
    "Zecher l'yitziyat mitzrayim!"

    :-)

    It would, but it's only one friend, not all of them. And we don't speak every single day (or even every other). But you're right, if it was someone I saw on a frequent basis we'd probably stop.

    Thanks, Ezzie.

    And, yeah, the Steelers stink. Coming from a Browns fan, you know a bit about stinking.

    Good Moed.
