A very happy Purim to all!

Later today, I will be partaking of the great tradition of this holiday...

Partaking of "adult" beverages...

Most American Jews are a lost cause, educated in a relativist stupidity far beyond their ability to understand. Besides voting 4 to 1 for Obama, they have inserted hatred into their services. Hatred of conservatives, to be precise.

At last year's High Holy Days -- just before elections -- the rabbi decided to denounce the Republicans. Aside from the fact that this was wholly inappropriate, he chose to suck-up to a congregation that is the very flower of anti-conservative elitism. My wife and I contacted the rabbi and the congregation president -- twice -- decrying this and asking if, as conservatives, we were still welcome at temple. We never received a response. It seems our next move will be to the Chabad House.

Had King Saul done his duty would there had been a book of Ester? Instead King Saul had his kingdom given his neighbor (David)for not obeying.

I learn something new every day.

I thought Purim was a hand sanitizer.

We are living in the days very similar to Esther’s!

We did the beverage thing, after the hammentaschen, which we ate after the Purimspiel.

Lotsa fun!
