Two nights ago Obama delivered the State of the Union address. Hearing the speech was novel for me as a Non-American, but I was captivated by the oratory of Obama. After his speech Indiana Republican Governor Mitch Daniels responded on behalf of the GOP. He accused Obama of having a serious lack of political integration.Obama wasContinue reading “State of your Union”

Este ou Aquele
I had wonderful Sabbath yesterday. I went to PMC and Dwight Nelson preached a very challenging message, you can check it our here: “Of Perfume and Tears and Grumpy Old Men”. Afterwards I went to a Brazilian potluck with my wife. We lined up, and right at the end of the table was some kindContinue reading “Este ou Aquele”
iphone 4, interruption.
My cousin Yasmina sent me a message and I have edited it slightly but I thought it was worth sharing, enjoy! So my iphone just decided to turn off and just wouldn’t turn on. I tried plugging it in, I tried connecting it to my computer, holding the on/off button down. Nothing. I started toContinue reading “iphone 4, interruption.”
What I hate more than Tests
Yesterday I took a Hebrew test so that I could pass out, and not take the class this semester. I missed it by 4 questions. So after studying and memorizing, I fell short. Like most people I dislike tests, and the only thing I dislike more than tests are failing them. Tests need not be aContinue reading “What I hate more than Tests”

Three Types of Sneezers
Pre Sneeze When my wife is about to sneeze her nose wrinkles up, she closes her eyes, and lifts her head up slightly. Where ever I am in the house if I can catch the beginning of the sneeze I run to her and shout “BLESS YOU”. Then she gets mad! LOL. Sometimes if IContinue reading “Three Types of Sneezers”
Lessons in Snow
Earlier this week I went to pick up my friend Joshua from the local airport. Before setting out I knew that this would be no ordinary drive. It was snowing, dark, and dangerous. Oh well, it can’t be that bad , I thought. So I set out around 21:30, eta 22:00. As soon as I gingerlyContinue reading “Lessons in Snow”
