It is time. If you haven't yet signed up for Nageela '08, please keep in mind that last year we did turn people down because we were full. Don't let that be you! Ask your parents if you're signed up yet.

Choices...
At Camp Nageela we are constantly trying to improve our staff's quality and knowledge. The following is an excerpt from the new Camp Nageela Counselor Competence Exam:
The best way to ensure that your campers are on time for an activity is to:
a. Turn on your I'm a Jew CD really loud so that all the campers leave the bunk at once
b. Offer a free trip to Dougies for the first one out of the bunk
c. Offer a free frip to Ice Caves Mountain to the last one out of the bunk
d. Make the smoke detector go off.
All Nageela counselors are expected to score high on the CNCCEs, so stay tuned for more questions.

First kid arrives for Nageela '08
Mazel Tov.
A male kid was born today in Camp Nageela. Mommy and baby are
fine, although the kid needed some immediate medical attention for his
leg. May we share many simchas together. (rds)
In other news, Azi has announced his retirement from the podcast business.

More Updates
Hmmm, What should these rooms be used for? gaga? Machachinski? Bowling? Plunger Eclipse? How about some strange version of red rover? Sorry, how about more rooms to sleep in so we can fit in our bunks more comfortably? Here are some pictures of the latest construction progress.

seven- Thousand posts!
In honor of the blog's 7,000th hit, I shall write 7000 wods in this post. Here goes.
it is fruitless to attempt to indoctrinate a superannuated canine with innovative maneuvers. members of an avien species with identical plumage propend to congregate. Scintilate scintilate asteroid minifoc, how I ponder your indentity. How am I doing so far? Am I calose to 7000? i must be, this is so m, just rambling on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on for a little while and everyone is forced to sit and listen to me. Well of course you dont have to listen to me now, because you can just scroll all the way down, but that wouldn't be so nice. So while you're here, I figured I'd shoot you a nice link or two. If you think your school is weird, check out these school buildings around the world. Anyway, I'm not really gonna write 7000 words, I'm not sure what nut still reading this thought I might, but that's all for now. Hmmm, how about 7000 letters, do you think I can do tyhat? Huh? Do you? I'm not sure. Can someone please get a bandaid, my finders are starting to bleed from all this typing. Ahhhh, stop it! No, I must persevere! What on Earth am I talking about? By the way, I have found that spreading the butter slowly and consistently on one side of the butter is much morfe effective and than dumping the butter on the floor and then mashing the bread on top of it with your heel. All though the latter produces a richer taste, the bread tends to crumble and you end up eith butter on your hands. Have a GOOD NIGHT everyone. Adios

chalk-lit
I'm writing this post from warm and balmy (not quite) Central Pennsylvania where my family and I are currently enroute to Cleveland for- you guessed it- a Shabbaton. About 22 (hopefully) future Nageelans will be attending an incredible shabbaton complete with a Saturday Night trip to snowtubing. Jealous? Not to worry, February 19-20 we have our overnight ski & snowboard trip.
We'll be stopping in Chocolate World today... can't wait for those free chocolates!
And check out this picture. I call it the subliminal borsalino heads. Can you come up with a better caption?

Re- Onion 2008!
What an indredible weekend we just had! 35 Nageela campers, 15 staff members, a million great memories (isn't that poetic,? I'm touched).
We were entertained by a new game called RED ONION (a cross between plunger eclipse and red rover), got befuddled by the DaNiSH (shoes and tissues), and entertained by skitsaphrenia (cool hair, Forrest), and an awesome show by THE SUBLIMINAL BANANA HEADS! who were amazing as always.

and of course we were entertained by Mushroom being mushroom
we'll try to get video clips up soon (if you took any videos, please email them to me!)
And of course BB didn't completely mess everything up.
Hope you enjoyed. I did!photo credits: Shaul Leiser

COM-MENT
Several online dictionary sites have blundered around trying to comde up with the propper definition of the following word. We're going to give you a multiple choice on the real meaning.
Com-ment n.
a. a conjunction of 'calm' and 'mental', alluding to a state of peace of mind.
b. An acrostic forming the words Candy Only Makes Me Excited Not Tired
c. When you don't want your computer stolen, you pour comment to attach it to the ground.
d. STOP LOOKING AT THE BLOG AND COMMENT ALREADY!

I'll take the hole, please.
I waltzed into Dunkin' Donuts today (the kosher one in Lawrence) as I usually do (well, I don't usually waltz, I more- like tango) and I saw a few flavors that make me wonder if I could pleeeaaaasssseee have chicken for supper instead!
Sardine Hazelnut
Banana and Glass
"Brooklyn Style"
Sulfur Crunch
Pigeon and Lime
Blood Sweat and Cherry
Sloppy Joe
Sauerkraut
Sour Cream and Onion
which leads to my next question. What is the WORST possible donut flavor you can think of (we need to know so that Mordy Shenker can order an extra batch!)
