My Pesach-Cleaning-Findings-of: STUFF

EntertainmentHumor

3 days ago


I dislike cleaning for Pesach, not only because it's hard on my knees and back, but because I always unearth something of personal value which becomes very emotional for me. I sometimes find myself sitting there by the just-unpacked-or-organized box, turning pages, or sifting through pictures, or looking through kids' toys/backpacks/schoolbags from Israel/drawings, tears coursing down my face.
Pesach cleaning, for me, is an emotional roller coaster. Today I was in our laundry/utility room, where we had boxes upon boxes of STUFF, belonging to the kids and us from way back, not unpacked since we sold our house and moved into our current rental town home six years ago.

Now, don't tell me that halachically I don't have to unpack those or look through them if I know we hadn't put chametz in them nor eaten near them--I know that! We needed to get rid of some boxes to make room there for other STUFF which we had piled up in other areas of the house which we needed to kasher for Pesach. That is why we were going through those boxes.

So You'd Like a Shorter Seder?

EntertainmentHumor

3 days ago

Our Pesach sedarim used to last a minimum of six (6) hours. It was not unusual to end around 3:00 a.m. if we started at 9:00 p.m. the night before. Now that we're older, we have not been able to stay awake so late. . . D. H. was usually nodding off by the time we were in the middle of Hallel, while I still managed to more or less stay awake through the songs at the end (somebody had to!)--but this year we'll do our best to stay awake for the whole nine yards, because our kids will be here.

However, for those of you who are really wimpy and can't handle a long seder, here's one that should be just your speed: The Sixty Second Seder!

Camel Shoes

If you follow me, by now you know my life is boring. So here I was looking around for ideas to write about and Camel Shoes popped out at me.Who knew camels wore shoes? Who knew someone would want a post about it. Well, whomever you are, read on!

I guess the first thing you need to do is take your camel shopping. I'd stay away from the pet stores. Sure they sell shoes for dogs and cats, but I think a camel is too exotic for them. You're best bet is to make sure you visit the super mall near where you live.

Upon entering the shoe store, you may want to get the camel's feet measured. I'd pay close attention to the width of the foot. You may have to get an extra wide shoe.

Next you'll have to decide what style shoe to get. Obviously you're not going for heels. Chances are your camel has a job. I'd go for something stylish, yet functional. Since your camel is a desert dweller, I'd pay close attention to air flow. You don't want those stinky feet coming home every night. You may want to lean towards a sandal.

Your camel's been sized and the shoes are on.Have the camel walk around a little. Make sure there is no rubbing. Last thing you need is a camel with blisters. Look into the camel's eyes as he walks around. Any signs of pain? No? Then you are good to go.

A Quick History of. . .Everything

"Art student Jamie Bell wanted to wrap up his art course with a bang and so he decided to tell the history of everything (or, pretty much everything) in flip-book form. Armed with Biro pens and an amazing imagination, Bell spent roughly three weeks off and on sketching on 2100 pages to create his masterpiece..."

List of TEN JOBS that BABIES should NOT do for their parents

EntertainmentHumor

2 weeks ago


An air traffic controller named Glenn Duffy brought his two kids to work and had them direct planes on the runway. He thought it would be cute. I can kind of see his thought process.  Watching commercials, children and puppies combined with some tweedle-dee music means things are happy. He was just going with the flow.

Some of the pilots played along thinking it was "career day" at the airport. Others probably thought that dude was sucking helium or something illegal.  Oh, what about the children?

Forget the children, there are hundreds of passengers on a plane and you are going to have a little diaper pooper direct a jumbo jet?  Wholly Moly!  That little girl has only been speaking English for a year. Obviously this guy never heard of Ronald Reagan. Back in the 80's traffic controllers wanted a raise. Reagan fired them. If the request was more Pampers they might still have their jobs.
