It’s Yom Ha’atzmaut, which is Hebrew for “go to the park and eat a cow”. It’s all about the mangal (barbeque grill). Much to say about this incredible day…but no energy to put the proverbial pen to paper right now. (Ech omrim “proverbial pen”?)
In the meantime, here’s a recent article I wrote for PresenTense Magazine, a relatively new Jewish monthly mag. The theme of the issue is, what else? Israel’s 60th and the topic of the article is Facebook in Israel. Enjoy…and chag ha’atzmaut sameach!
Future advertisement for Goldstar? I’m waiting by the phone…
hey!!! that’s my friend tova in your picture!!
ok…i’m done being super excited right now.
That’s funny, she told me her name was Bahati and that she needed $10,000 to bring her family here from Africa. You’re saying I shouldn’t have given it to her then?
BTW, I included this in the May 11 issue of Haveil Havalim.
“go to the park and eat a cow”!!!! that is great, thanks for the giggle.

Goldstar comment is hilarious
