Happy Rosh Hashanah! “Shana Tova - May you be inscribed in the Book of Life!” |
|
Dear Friends and Schoolmates,
The Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah, began last evening at sunset, ushering in the High Holidays (Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur and Sukkot).
http://www.timeanddate.com/holidays/us/rosh-hashana
This Holiday celebration repeats around this same time every year. No doubt most of
us are
probably not personally observing this holiday, but we don't concern ourselves
with such trifling details such as that here. We try to celebrate everything together
as the one big happy family that we are.
So we extend all our best
wishes for all good things for all our friends and family!
Happy Rosh
Hashanah!

but my in-laws are. and you don't have to be Mormon to appreciate this
Olympic athlete's story about what happened at a photo shoot when she
was asked to "sex it up." What a well spoken young woman. Admirable! (I
wish I could have her with me at every shoot I am asked to do...!) http://ldsliving.com/story/76839-lds-olympian-faced-with-modesty-dilemma-at-photo-shoot
Thank you so much, Mayim!

brought four boys before a judge. "They were causing an awful lot of commotion at the zoo, your Honor," he said. "Boys," said the judge sternly, "I never like to hear reports of juvenile delinquency. Now I want each of you to tell me your name and what you were doing wrong." "My name is George," said the first boy, "and I threw peanuts into the elephant pen." "My name is Pete," said the second boy, "and I threw peanuts into the elephant pen." "My name is Mike," said the third boy, "and I threw peanuts into the elephant pen." "My name is Peanuts," said the fourth boy. |
