Below are the 3 most recent journal entries recorded in the " georgetowner. February 12th, 2010. By about 3:00, I had dug up the side of my car, and had finally broken through the icy berm between my car and freedom up near the driver's side front door. I even was scooping huge shovelfuls of snow from the car's roof. Here's a sequence of photos (click to see full size):. Finally, the car was free! February 10th, 2010. Snowmageddon Pt. II. While we were shoveling, the winds kicked up in earnest. The s...

No Shpiel for Me - Georgetowner. February 6th, 2007. No Shpiel for Me. I came home last night from shpiel practice thinking this year's edition was finally starting to come together, and was looking forward to spending time scrubbing the script, rehearsing, then knocking everyone's socks off with the show. Then I came home, and found two messages on the answering machine. The first was my mother, telling me she was following the ambulance carrying my brother to Shady Grove Adventist Hospital. The family ...

Clearing Out from the Snowpocalypse - Georgetowner. February 7th, 2010. Clearing Out from the Snowpocalypse. This morning, I went out to start shoveling the sidewalk in front of an alongside the shul, then attack the courtyard, so I could clear a path through the courtyard to the mikvah. Was making waffles for the "Waffles and Wisdom" program going on with our Rabbinic Intern, I was shoveling away at 2-3 inches of ice topped with 20 or so inches of heavy snow. I went into the shul, where I found. Had dri...

Civ Score - Georgetowner
http://georgetowner.livejournal.com/13213.html
Civ Score - Georgetowner. May 13th, 2010. I recently bought a copy of Civilization. On eBay. I figured I was getting a copy in good condition, as the description (no photos were posted) said some of the decks were still sealed in plastic. Opening the shrinkwrapped card decks, it became really clear what had happened. Someone had bought the Advanced Civ expansion, not even unwrapping all the parts, and put everything into the original Civ box. May 13th, 2010 09:05 pm (UTC). Happy happy joy joy!

Thank You Mr. Warner - Georgetowner. February 9th, 2007. Thank You Mr. Warner. Senator John Warner was unable to attend my brother's funeral yesterday. He did not forget. Since the U.S. Senate was in session, he needed to be on the floor. He read the following statement into the Congressional Record:. Through all the time that has passed, Jake has remained a steadfast friend of my office, supporting my campaigns and projects whenever possible and maintaining warm and important friendships with current an...

We also came upon a couple of idiots trying to drive on 27th St. That road has yet to be touched by plow (several trees fell along that block du...After...

orthomom: Quick Thoughts on the Concert Ban
http://orthomom.blogspot.com/2008/02/quick-thoughts-on-concert-ban.html
Wednesday, February 27, 2008. Quick Thoughts on the Concert Ban. Reading about the recent Jewish music concert ban. And the resulting cancellation of a widely promoted upcoming Jewish music concert in Madison Square Garden made my head spin. How did this happen? Women dressed in clothing deemed inappropriate with bleach, or get violent. Over headshots of women displayed in a storefront on a main public thoroughfare, and calls. But I can still admit to being shocked that views that I consider to be so ext...

orthomom: Eruv Enmity - Take II
http://orthomom.blogspot.com/2008/06/eruv-enmity-take-ii.html
Thursday, June 12, 2008. Eruv Enmity - Take II. About the efforts on the part of a Hamptons Orthodox community to build an eruv, is outrageous. It has a lot in common with a similarly offensive story. I posted about some time ago that shows a proposal for an eruv eliciting wild overreaction and disinformation regarding its impacts and properties. Some choice bits from a story about this year's version of the eruv battle - over a proposal to install one in Westhampton Beach:. Another claimed that the natu...

The Average Moe Mitzri - The duckpond. Fat and Friendly in Toronto. Apr 18th, 2011. The Average Moe Mitzri. Does anyone ever give any thghout to the average Moe Mitzri? Caught in a battle between a king he can't control and a God dhe has never heard of. All he wants is to go on living his life, feeding his faamily, maybe having some some fun with a mistress or a good cup of beer on the side? Who stands up for him and declares This is not right! Someone should give a thought to that man caught in a battle...
