Okay, so I given up to the events.. in a way.

As of now, about 125,000 people have been counted as dead in the tsunami disaster at south east asia.

For me, it's sad and devestating, but is also a miracle, since as many as 10000 israelis are traveling this region at any given time, and our death toll there stands on about 7 so far.

I know it makes no difference, but it's still a ray of light.

Okay, now, if you can spare some change (5 dollars and upwards) head over to Amazon and donate for the survivors. It's basically for food and medical supplies which they will need desperately over the next few weeks or even months.

 

And now to a sharp turn:

 

It's Welcome 2005, Goodbye 2004.

Over here, we have mixed feelings about New Year's Eve. or Sylvester's night.

As Jews, we have a totally different calendar which supposedly spans back to the beginning of life on earth. (which according to the bible would be about 5000 years ago, give or take)

We do celebrate new year's eve, but I suspect it's simply an excuse to party, drink a shitload of alcohol, and kiss at midnight. (which I always thought was a real nice touch :>)

Anyways, I wish you all a happy new year, and may your new year be better than the last in every possible way!

 

In accordance with the Prophecy!
