So day after day I check the blog... I was giving up hope of seeing something new... I decided to check one last time... and lo and behold there were another 2 comments!! Hurray for the Gouraries!!
Well for all those that are still checkin' in... I was out shopping the other day with my adorable daughter. We were in a dressing room that wasn't big enough for one person, let alone mom, baby and carriage...I perched Ita on the small bench they provide and to her surprise e she met another baby...

its been so long!
Hello Everyone,
so where did I leave off.... oh yea I was in Newark and oh yea so whatever the point here is that I am writing from Israel EH"K and I finally got in touch with internet.
I came here on Birthright and now I extended my ticket to stay for another week the ppl at ElAl told me that I am a good zionist. so to sum up my trip I came 2 fridays ago and all went smoooth and fun until tuesday night , we were in the negev at a Bedouin camp and we were playing "football Americani" in the sand and I was running, got my foot caught in a hole and POP! I fell in pain and realized that I sprained my ankle. I had a very painful night went to the hospital the next morning and guess what the hospital dint even want to give me crutches! they told me to just walk it off....
I had to get "kabayim" from a tzedokoh org.....
Now the Birthright trip is over and I'm moving around the country to different places every night (Israeli intel is that good) it funny being "home-less" in your own land.
I went to Chevron today it was nice to be back then to rachel tomb and now I'm in J'lem in Mayanot.
I'm also getting tired right about now so I'll try to add some later.
Peace.

3 things to ponder
1. Cows
2. The Constitution
3. The Ten Commandments
Cows -
Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that our government can track a single cow born in Canada almost three years ago, right to the stall where she sleeps in the state of Washington? And they track her calves to their stalls. But they are unable to locate 11 million illegal aliens wandering around our country. Maybe we should give each of them a cow.
The Constitution -
They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq. Why don't we just give them ours? It was written by a lot of really smart guys, it has worked for over 200 years, and we're not using it anymore.
The Ten Commandments -
The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments posted in a courthouse is this: You
cannot post "Thou Shalt Not Steal," "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery", and "Thou Shalt Not Lie" in a building full of lawyers, judges and politicians. It creates a hostile work environment
That's all.
I don't like to ponder too long.
It makes me nervous.

Straight outta Left Field
You remember those silly facts under Snapple caps? Oh there still around! There was one that got me thinking; “The average person sits in traffic for 2 years of his/her life!” we are also asleep for 1/3 of our life considering that there’s 24 hours in a day and on average you sleep for 8 hours.
Gosh that means that when you hit 30 you’ve been sleeping for 10 years! And that’s if you’re sleeping ONLY 8 hours a night :)
Then there are times when you’re awake but you’re not doing anything so you’re kinda sleeping.
Every month I spend two days or more on the train that means that in a year I’m on the train for 1 month or 576 hours awake, but doing nothing. So when they say that ‘life is so short’ I think it means that throughout our day-to-day activity or lack there of these minutes hours months and years are being counted up as being part of our active life.
Back to the numbers by the time you’re 50 you spent 1 year in traffic, 3 years just getting to work, approx. 6,000 hours eating breakfast, 7,500 hours in the shower, been sleeping for 15 years! So with all those numbers put together this person is only active for about 32.365 years.
Just a thought.

From the pen of my sneaker
Dear diary, 10/7/06
Let me tell you a bit about myself. I was born a few hours ago in this factory. My friend, Skitch, said that he overheard some of the workers saying that we were going to get “shipped” to a “store” to get “bought” by “people”. “Did he mean humans?”, I asked. “I think so,” he answered. The humans are coming to take us now, ’bye.

Dear diary, 10/11/06
Boy, was that a long trip! I’ve been sitting in this storeroom for 3 days now.2 days ago was the first time I got ‘Tried’. I was just sitting in my box, minding my own business, when suddenly one of the humans who work here came in. He looked around for a few moments, then saw me and brought me into ‘The Room’. I had heard tales about ‘The Room’ from some of the shoes that had come in an earlier shipment. “H’its where ‘umans try yew on and h’if yer nice ‘n cozy they (the ‘umans) might jest take yew to those big boxes that they live in and keep yew.”, said a pair of Oxfords in a severe, cockney accent.
The human took me to a medium-sized boy human with blond hair and blue eyes. He took me and put me onto the boy’s foot. We walked around the room for a few minutes. It was a wonderful feeling. Then I heard the human say ‘nope, not these.’ And I felt my spirits plummet. Since then, I’ve been ‘Tried’ 5 times, but none were as exciting as the 1st . More soon, ‘bye

They cant live on one income!
Until next time,
Farmer Moe
