I'm Back!

Not having blogged in over a month marks my longest dry spell since starting this blog in October 2003.

Much has happened in the month since I last blogged including moving to Columbus, Ohio and starting my new position as rabbi of Congregation Agudas Achim.

So, nu? Why did I decide to start blogging again today on this Erev Tisha B'Av?

Well, I've missed a lot of bloggable opportunities, but I couldn't resist not posting this great quote from General Norman Schwartzkopf:

In a recent interview, the General was asked if he thought there was room for forgiveness toward Hizbollah.

Schwartzkopf replied, "I believe that forgiving Hizbollah is God's function. The Israelis' job is to arrange the meeting."

I wish everyone a meaningful Tisha B'Av fast.

Shalom Al Yisrael!
