Wait, stop!

William was excited to join the army.
He enjoyed the drills, the exercises and even the food!
His one problem was with shooting.

He got really nervous when the officer would yell "Fire at Will!" BlogBooster-The most productive way for mobile blogging. BlogBooster is a multi-service blog editor for iPhone, Android, WebOs and your desktop

Gourmet delight

I guess I don't get to pet stores very often. They are fascinating places. There are a lot of cool things to see and do... It's always a fun trip for the kids, who love playing with a bunny or a dog.
But...

Don't do your food shopping there. Really. Pinkies and fuzzies
Pinkies and fuzzies... Are you serious?

Really? You're kidding!



Here's the cover to a book my kids have, and I must say I'm severely disappointed!
I'll bet the author never even tried to! Huh, Harriet?  Have you?
I can't say I do it often, because to truly savor the fine taste and texture of an expertly marinated Kirby requires the faculties of palate, tongue and epiglottis.
However, tasting a pickle with one's ear does provide a pleasantly pickly sensation as well.

So next time somebody writes a book, I sincerely hope they research the topic well.

Kay-liens

Two astronauts land on Mars. Their mission: To determine whether there is oxygen on the planet. 'Give me the box of matches,' says one.

'Either it burns and there is oxygen, or nothing happens.'

He takes the box, and is ready to strike a match when, out of the blue, a Martian appears waving all his seven arms. 'No, no, don't!'

The two guys look at each other, worried. Could there be an unknown explosive gas on Mars? Still, the astronaut takes up the match and prepares to strike it.
Suddenly, a crowd of hysterical Martians come, all waving their arms: 'No, please no, don't do that! STOP! Please!'

One of the astronauts says, 'This looks serious. What are they afraid of? Nonetheless, we're here for science, to know if humans can breathe on Mars.' So... He strikes the match -- which flames up, burns down, and... NOTHING HAPPENS!

So then he turns to the Martians and asks, 'Why did you want us to not strike a match?'

The leader of the Martians steps forward and says, "Today is Shabbos!"

Finally made it safely back home. Just about 25 hours late. I guess that's taking 'Jewish time' to the extreme.

Wednesday, December 15, 2010

So bad rabbi Fromowitz is reading the Spanish side of the inflight safety card
Seated in front of the exit row, so that means can't even lean the chair back on a late night flight. Ouch

Almost there...

I won't count my chickens before they hatch... Meaning until I open my front door tonight. But, at least tonight we made it last security... At the gate now!
Granted the plane will not leave onetime considering they haven't started boarding yet for a flight that supposed to take off in 15 minutes.
It seems the saga has almost ended.
Stuck @ a railroad crossing. Will we make the flight?

Stuck in Chicago

Should have been simple, right? A one day conference in Chicago.

Well, it actually all started a couple of months ago when I heard that the National NAGEELA conference would be taking place in New York City. Naturally, as very organized people, we immediately booked flights. It was only after the flights were arranged that the location of the conference was switched to Chicago.
Ok. One strike, but we changed our tickets and now we're heading to Chicago. The flights from Las Vegas into the windy city are sparse, and we ended up scheduled on a 12:50AM flight. After we get to the airport, we find out that the flight is delayed until 2:30.
Great.
We finally get into Chicago, where it's 7 degrees, as opposed to the 70 in Las Vegas. We swing by the place the meetings are going to be held and immediately begin ingesting large amounts of caffeine.
The meetings went pretty well. We made all kinds of great plans, had wonderful food, and I'm imbibed more caffeine.
Then our flight got delayed again. And again. Turns out theres this website where you can actually track your plane's progress in the air, as well as how many bags of peanuts each passenger managed to grab while the flight attendant wasn't looking. The wonders of technology!
This website told me that our plane was still somewhere over Georgia, and would depart Chicago at 11:59pm. Great, that means I wouldn't be home until at least 1am. Well, what can you do? I get to the airport at 11:00, and it completely dead. Nobody behind the airline counter.
We ask the guy mopping what's going on, and he tells us that the security checkpoint is closed.
"well how am I supposed to get to my flight?"
"you're not."
"but we just called the airline, and after a while of trying to find someone who spoke English, they told us the plane is still on the ground!"
"you're also on the ground and you are going to stay that way."
"Is there a single security checkpoint in this airport that is open?"
Now you might be thinking, "This is Chicago O'Hare, the busiest airport in the world... How is it possible that there aren't any open checkpoints?"
No idea.

It's the next day, and I'm still in Chicago. Naturally, the airline put us on the NEXT flight out, which is 24 hours later. At least they have good burgers here.
