On The Brink, And Just Barely Being Held Back….And By What?
The first sociological experiment was done by a French Jew named Emile Durkheim. Durkheim wanted to prove that the one thing that everyone was SURE was psychological was in fact social, specifically suicide. Durkheim was SURE that it was in fact caused primarily by social surroundings and situations. In 1897 he published his study “la [...]

Next up………. Richardson
Alright, my plan to write up info on the most popular candidates has fallen to the way side because I just have to talk about my man Richardson before he might drop out. CNN reported after tonight’s 4th place stance his team may be heading back to NM to “rethink” things. I think they are [...]

Rudy! Rudy!
Disclaimer- This may be a little more biased then I would have liked; I am just very tired, having had a long day with an abnormally cranky 2 month old and therefore could not help but throw in some jokes that are not funny at all. Enjoy.
I had been thinking of doing Huckabee next because [...]

So who should I pick?
After my last post, someone asked if there was a web site with a basic breakdown of everyone running for president. I looked, and either there is none or my Googling skills are not up to par. In either case, I figured I would step up to the plate. I don’t have the time right [...]

“They’ll like us when we win”
That line is yet another West Wing quote. Toby Ziegler says that to his ex-wife, Congresswoman Wyatt, in a discussion about radical Islamists in the Middle East. I heard almost the exact same line last night, however, while watching CNN.
After Obama was announced the winner of the Iowa Caucus last night, a talking head on [...]

“This Is The First Time Something Like This Has Happend In An Upscale Neighborhood”
This was the line used by the local reporter while sitting at her desk in a studio somewhere in midtown Manhattan. She was talking about a rash of swastikas that were found around Brooklyn Heights on Monday night. Two Shuls, some cars and a few homes found black swastikas spray painted on the walls or [...]

Fate must hate us
Something I have noticed among Jews of all denominations is that they all have this inherent fear of something called “Fate”.
“Don’t tempt fate” “Don’t give an Eyin Hara” or my favorite from The West Wing “What, do you want to tempt the wrath of the… whatever, from high atop the thing?!”
I must admit I [...]

“The President will be taking the day to spend at High Holy Day services”
Many people I have spoken with over the years have all had the same feeling about having a Jewish President. I always thought that Jews would LOVE to have a fellow brother in the Oval. But more often then not I have found that people want that high office as Goyish as possible. I [...]

Do you sell to China?
As an introduction to this post I must let everyone know that I am blessed with a boss who has a fabulous sense of humor. It really makes the day move along when he stops the office to start some shananagen or another.
Have you ever heard the indium “To every jest there is truth?” Today [...]
