Strange personal news: At our minyan for Shabbath (held in the local day school’s auditorium), periodically children’s toys show up without any warning whatsoever and no explanation as to whether or not they were left behind by a child accidentally or donated intentionally. This past Shabbath, a rather large (about a cubit tall) purple dragon showed up. By minhah, it was wearing a kippah. I have suggested it become our mascot, and I would like to note that a purple dragon figures prominently as a villain in L. Frank Baum’s The Surprising Adventures of the Magical Monarch of Mo and His People. (You want the illustrated version; trust me.)
Today’s news and commentary:
- “Nevermind the scientific consensus. Down with vaccines!” (I have seen papers on the MMR controversy, and indeed the panic over vaccination is completely unfounded.)
- “Chimps Spread the News”
