it’s at 7 p.m. in israel, noon in EST.
this is only a draft, but something is going on with the internet and the computer, so i’m saving it here. enjoy:
Soap opera
Lately I’ve been watching the washing machine.
It’s a scream the way one sock can get stuck to the door
As if it’s trying to escape, and the rest of the batch
Keeps trying to pull it back, back to conventional cleanliness.
Or are the working out how they can join the single hero
And free themselves from the rolling torture?
Eventually it loses, as do all the single individuals who
Only to live their life in a world as solitary souls
And I watch, knowing it will fail, and everything in a minute
Will go to the dryer. And I will turn off the washer
And move to a more banal program on television.

I know it is not an Israeli holiday – not Jewish, not Muslem – but any excuse for love has to be promoted. So first I wish you all much love and celebration.
More later.

yup. i’ve decided. i’m voting labor again. it seems I always choose the same party – for different reasons. this time I really believe that her ideology is clear. As much as I believe in Meretz,,, and am not totally pleased with all of the people on the love
but guys, i’m not well, and had a bad week with doctors, so I’m not making much sense. tomorrow should be better.

with all the sudden and crazy decisions of the government, and all the crazy people fearing vaccinations, I want to remind people that in 1952, when the typhoid epidemic was about the take place here, everyone was ordered, on penalty of law, to be vaccinated.

Everyone in our building has seen the jackal. Most of the time in the same place, on the left patch of ferns near the entrance. But when we call the municipality, and they come with all their equipment to get rid of the potentially rapid aminal, the beast is nowhere to be found.
Not surprisingly, Bibi has managed to elude the courts for almost 5 years, when the case opened, but today when he appeared, he was out within 15 minutes, after his plea of not guilty. He managed to squeeze in a meeting with the minister of health in the hallway, and appear incredibly busy with political matters the entire time he was in court. And he seems to have managed to postpone the trial until long after the elections. And all the news that claim that the case against Bibi is rigged means that with every appearance in court, he gets more votes.
Maybe we should vote for the jackal.

nope. Ezi didn’t pass. his tests show no resistance to covid-19. Mine are fine, but I still can’t take the chance of passing the virus on to him. It is a sad day – but we’ve had worse. and we still may have even worse. So now would be a good time to say good things to me.
