4 Tishri 5769: Ten Days of Repentance/National Computing Day/National Diversity Day

Greetings.

Worthy cause of the day: “We need a progressive alternative to the Bush Bailout.”

Relevant to Divine Misconceptions:
  1. “'666' road sign thefts bedeviling roadways”: I cannot make this up. You would think people worried about numerology would have something better to do with their time.
  2. “And now for Kol Nidre . . .”: To just quote the whole, short post:
    Meyer called his Rabbi and said, "I know tonight is Kol Nidre, but the Twins start the playoffs. Rabbi. I'm a lifelong fan. I've got to watch the Twins game on TV."

    The Rabbi responds, "Meyer, that's what VCRs are for."

    Meyer is surprised. "You mean I can tape Kol Nidre"?
    Yes, this is a joke, but it is scarily close to how some Christians are reported to behave on Superbowl Sunday.
Today’s news and commentary:Today’s weird thing is “The diskette that blew Trixter’s mind ”. Enjoy, share the weirdness, and Shabbath shalom.
