Regrets - letter to 15 year old you.

Friday, 22 February 2008 8:54 P GMT-06
I tried to write a letter to 17 year-old me a few weeks ago, but failed because of the time-space continuum. Yes, I let an idea of science fiction stop me from doing a creative writing project. I wouldn't want my path to be any different because

Remember how I got to work with The Jewish Museum last spring? I have fantastic news that is, I think, in some small part linked to the work I did with them.They are doing an exhibition called Off the Wall and it has, drum roll, a blog. It is a two-w

Monday, 18 February 2008 5:27 P GMT-06
Remember a few weeks ago when I mentioned that I'd had dinner with Jerry Kaye, the director of OSRUI, and that some exciting announcements would be coming up?Ta da! It is in the form of the Jewish Discovery Shabbat at OSRUI. OSRUI is one of our R

Chess

Sunday, 17 February 2008 3:41 P GMT-06
If relationships are chess games, when you get to the end do you stop to explain the assumptions and reasons for each move or just walk away from the table?Then again, I suppose a relationship that works isn't akin to chess at all and that's

Killing at Temple (and the Twittersourced Skit)

Sunday, 17 February 2008 11:08 A GMT-06
Wait, stop, before you think there was a shooting or a sacrifice at my synagogue, I'm using a comedy term. I killed last night, the Ham it Up Players killed last night. The show was a great success. We had a full house and a great time. The audie

Lately

I just got home from a haircut and massage. The massage was a last minute add, I called my salon at 9:30 to see if I could squeeze in a massage in the hour before or hour after my haircut. Lucky for me, this was possible and I got my first deep tissu

Just a quick note to say that I arrived this morning in Frankfurt, went through the somewhat off-putting passport control, zipped around the maze that is Frankfurt airport under construction, then got on my Luftshana flight to Hamburg. Despite gettin

Germany has never really been on my radar as a country I really wanted to visit, but now that I'm 12 hours away from heading to the airport I am super excited and wondering why it wasn't. I thought I was all set to go, but turns out I don'

Moving to Europe

No, no, no, I'm not. My friend Jason and his wife did. They used VIP Relocation and still don't have their stuff. It's what some people might call lost. Let Jason tell you about VIP Relocation based in LA.
