Solanum tuberocephalus: Coming Home: A Love Story
http://solanum.blogspot.com/2009/01/coming-home-love-story.html
Fighting entropy, one day at a time. Friday, January 28, 2011. Coming Home: A Love Story. This 50 sheqel note. Was in my wallet when I left Israel on August 15, 2001 and resided there until January 1, 2008. I had kept it for those 2,331 days in חוץ לארץ. Because of jet lag, I wasn't able to sleep our first night, in Jerusalem. So I arose at 4 AM. And left the hotel (before the buses started running) to walk to the Kotel for prayers at sunrise ( vatikin. Walking around is like déjà vu, only I've really be...

Fighting entropy, one day at a time. Wednesday, March 16, 2011. Smile today, it's good for you! I just came across this video today and wanted to share it. 98.038% guaranteed to put a smile on your face. I recommend turning the sound up and viewing it fullscreen (which means you'll have to leave to see it on YouTube, but that's ok- I'll still be here when you get back).

Fighting entropy, one day at a time. Sunday, March 27, 2011. He who seeks truth. I heard Moshe Safdie speak on TED and he concluded with this profound poem:. He who seeks truth shall find beauty. He who seeks beauty shall find vanity. He who seeks order shall find gratification. He who seeks gratification shall be disappointed. He who considers himself the servant of his fellow beings shall find the joy of self-expression. He who seeks self-expression shall fall into the pit of arrogance.

Solanum tuberocephalus: April 2011

Fighting entropy, one day at a time. Monday, April 04, 2011. I can attest unequivocally that the shot of Laphroaig I had yesterday, finishing a bottle I started almost seven years ago, was the most gratifying drink I've had in my life, on all dimensions including taste, meaningfulness, and company. I would say it was transformative, but I'd already changed. This was a celebration. Thank you Yoni for sharing such a poignant toast. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Cogito ergo defessus sum.

Solanum tuberocephalus: Eyes shut tight
http://solanum.blogspot.com/2009/01/eyes-shut-tight.html
Fighting entropy, one day at a time. Wednesday, January 19, 2011. The violence and deaths are tragic, the strife is saddening, but the absurd politics are frustrating and astounding. This goes beyond exclusion, selection, and confirmatory biases. This is distortion and self-delusion. Here an IDF spokesperson shows some of the difference between Hamas and IDF tactics, and demonstrates how Hamas violates international and Islamic law. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Fighting entropy, one day at a time. Tuesday, December 28, 2010. I took a short walk outside today. It was the first time I'd stepped out of my building in seven days. I normally have a couple free days during the week, plus my assorted clinical responsibilities were suspended for the federal holiday. By Shabbos morning, I was getting cabin fever and really.

Solanum tuberocephalus: February 2011

Fighting entropy, one day at a time. Friday, February 04, 2011. The Rules: don't take too much time to think. Name 20 albums you've heard that you can't get out of your system. List the first 20 you can remember in 15 minutes. Tag 20 friends including me because I'm interested in my friends' choices. If you break this chain, you'll produce eight generations of Celine Dion, Michael Bolton, and Avril Lavigne fans. John Williams - The Guitarist. Eric Clapton - From the Cradle. Mumford and Sons - Sigh No More.
