Today is the last day to sign up for the BeyondBT / SerandEz Shabbaton being held this Shabbos (Shabbos Nachamu) in Kew Gardens Hills, NY. It promises to be a great Shabbos, with good food, relaxed meals, and personal thoughts and musings on the themes of Individuality, Integration, and Inspiration, capped by a Melave Malka including music by the BBT Jam Band. To me, the best part about such a Shabbos is the company that surrounds, and this Shabbos will be no different, with a number of members and good friends of this blog already signed up. A small sampling:
- The Raggedies, our esteemed neighbors
- Jameel, imported from Israel (albeit unfortunately only for the Melave Malka due to other engagements)
- Kasamba, dragged over from England (also only for the MM, sadly)
- Bad4Shidduchim, CornerPoint, Erachet, SJ, The Apple...
- MordyS, Special Ed (both of SerandEz)...
Thanks! As a small aside, Mazel Tov to sometime reader/commenter Bob Miller, a big commenter at BeyondBT, on his son's engagement!




Name: Ezzie
Home: Kew Gardens Hills, NY
About Me: I'm a 24-year old Orthodox Jew who works (too) hard auditing hedge funds for a living. I attended (Touro's) Lander College for Men in Queens after two years in Israel, mostly in Yeshivat Ohr Yerushalayim (OJ). I grew up in Cleveland, OH, where I attended the Hebrew Academy of Cleveland (HAC) before heading to the Wisconsin Institute for Torah Study (WITS) for high school. I married my wife, Serach, in June 2004, and our daughter Elianna turned two in March 2008, while our daughter Kayla was born June 2008. Serach has a Master's in Education & Special Education from Touro (Summa Cum Laude), and teaches a pair of mixed ed/special ed classrooms in Queens. We've lived happily in Kew Gardens Hills, (despite its location in) NY since our marriage, and love all our friends and frequent guests.

Anonymity, shmanonimity
