The obituary was beautifully and poignantly written. May her neshama have an aliyah.

This is weird, and not terribly inspirational.

If you read the news, you need to read this. It will cheer you up.

Because there is only one kind of news. Bad.

All news is bad news. No news is good news. I did not make this up. It is a factual logical corollary. If you read something that looks like good news, it is a setup for future bad news.

Anyway.

Thanks!

I'm glad! Personally I feel it was less thought out than most of what I write. But it wasn't getting better from working on it, and I do this for enjoyment, so out it went.

I think I would take out all references to current events and systematize my system a little more coherently. But the examples were fun to write.

Traveling with family:

I'm only about 1/4 of the way through but I had to stop to say that I'm splitting my sides here. As I said elsewhere, ectomorph is one seriously funny writer! Thanks for adding some laughter to my day. Not that I'm a person who lacks laughter in her life, B"H He has blessed me with an easy laugh and plenty to laugh about, but IMO laughter is one of those things "she-ein lahem shiur." There's no such thing as too much laughter in your life, as long as the laughter is genuine and no one's laughing at you.
