Under the Monkey Tree: August 2006
http://underthemonkeytree.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Under the Monkey Tree. Thursday, August 31, 2006. Anysara Gets Political - U.S. Senate Races 2006. With that disclaimer, here's the break down of U.S. Senate races:. Current seat holdings in the U.S. Senate:. In order to take control of the Senate, Democrats need to hold all seats and pick up 7 seats from Republicans. While this is unlikely, few Demcratic seats are in danger (only Connecticut comes to mind due to the Lieberman debacle) and Dems stand a decent chance of picking up at least two seats.

Under the Monkey Tree. Thursday, September 21, 2006. Quote of the Day. I read this and had to post it to the blog:. At least one U.S. Senator takes the Iranian threat very seriously. "I think he's a Hitler type of person," said Sen. George Voinovich (R.-Ohio) about Iranian President Ahmedinejad, adding, "I call him Ahmed-in-a-head.". Posted by Chabad Chammer at 11:49.

Under the Monkey Tree: June 2006
http://underthemonkeytree.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Under the Monkey Tree. Wednesday, June 21, 2006. Here I sit at my regular perch in Serious Coffee whiling away the morning writing, emailing, and playing online sudoku. I've been surfing some new blogs lately - their links can be found on the right - which brings me to my first point of interest of the day. Was the 2004 Presidential Election stolen and do we really care now that it's 2006? Yesterday I was reading this article in Rolling Stone. There is reportedly a rebuttal here. Where would it end?

Under the Monkey Tree: October 2006
http://underthemonkeytree.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Under the Monkey Tree. Monday, October 30, 2006. Come one, come all. It has been a busy week here in Canadia. In anticipation of the delivery of our new bed, I tore up the carpet in the bedroom and painted. Now, a) I've painted plenty before and b) I'm really not stupid, so I'm going to offer you a tip that tripped even me up in spite of my husband's efforts to avoid the mishap. When painting a stippled ceiling, buy ceiling paint. What's new in Jewish Victoria? Posted by Sarah at 09:20. I was listening t...

Under the Monkey Tree: May 2006
http://underthemonkeytree.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
Under the Monkey Tree. Wednesday, May 24, 2006. A Jewish Member of Iranian Parliament? Hold on one minute. I was surfing cnn.com today and saw an article about the National Post. A conservative Canadian paper. The paper was retracting a claim that the Iranian Parliament has been discussing making Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians wear colored strips of cloth on their clothing identifying their religious group. I didn't see the actual paper (we'd likely be Globe and Mail. Which, in spite of its conservat...

Under the Monkey Tree: July 2006
http://underthemonkeytree.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Under the Monkey Tree. Monday, July 31, 2006. I came across a link to this site. Additionally, the blogger does some research and finds this same rescue worker in another scenario in Lebanon 10 years ago posing with the bodies of innocent victims yet again. It's tragic that the Lebanese will stoop so low as to use the bodies of dead children as propaganda. Posted by Sarah at 15:49. Monday, July 17, 2006. The World and Its Relationship with Terrorists. Started to report Israeli casualties and suffering in...

Under the Monkey Tree. Thursday, November 23, 2006. We love this commercial. Posted by Sarah at 10:13. Wednesday, November 22, 2006. Pumpkin, Krispy Kreme, and Waiting. We're in the home stretch - the baby is due to arrive in just over four weeks. I've outgrown most of my shirts - am considering wearing mumus for the duration of the pregnancy. All is well, thank G-d, but we're getting impatient to meet our little one. I'm taking it easy these days and have to go now to put in a load of laundry before ret...

Under the Monkey Tree: March 2006
http://underthemonkeytree.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
Under the Monkey Tree. Thursday, March 30, 2006. Westcoast Weirdness and Fun. The other day A.S. was commenting to me that she felt like she was going deaf. Not wanting to admit that I'd been gas-lighting her, and talking more and more quietly each day, I sprung the suggestion of ear candling on her. The thing is that starting here, I need to now find something to top this. Any thoughts? Posted by Chabad Chammer at 11:26. Tuesday, March 28, 2006. Victoria is a Canadian paradise. I can see the mountai...

Under the Monkey Tree: April 2006
http://underthemonkeytree.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Under the Monkey Tree. Thursday, April 27, 2006. Pesach on the Edge. On the Shabbos before Pesach, I made a minor faux-pas. We were all standing around at the kiddush after shul discussing the upcoming community seder on the first night of Pesach. I asked if anyone knew what time it started. One lady said she hoped it started earlier than last year, when they didn't start until 8. I said, "Well they can't really start before a certain time.". For a picnic and then saw an IMAX movie. Victoria is so ac...
