I used to have a t-shirt that said "I hear voices & they don't like you."

It's a toss-up: going blind or getting Alzheimer's.

I love Robert Mirabal, who does traditional music & updated versions of traditional music. YouTube - Robert Mirabal: Little indians I also like Carlos Nakai (a traditional flute player), & Joanne Shenandoah. I like Walela (Rita Coolidge is a member). here's Walela's Cherokee-language version...

I got into watching news & political commentary programs from 4 to 10 p.m. during the '08 election, & I still watch news most of the time. I watch even more of it now that I'm retired. However, I like NCIS, Dr. Who, & Deadliest Catch. I visited my brother in the U.K. in Feb. & got interested...

Thanks for the offer of scotch (yum!), but I'm tempted to stay warm & cozy under the furred purrsons until spring.

Point taken, but his Hassidism is seen as "Shtick" by some/many. IMO, his talent has propelled him beyond being "the Hassidic reggae singer", just as John Mellencamp's talent moved him past being "Johnny Cougar".

I'm a Jane Austen fan, & there are piles of sequals, prequels, & side stories to her work. Some are great, some are okay, & some are drek. So it was with apprehension that I bought "Pride & Prejudice & Zombies" by Jane Austen & Seth Grahame-Smith. Grahame-Smith took Austen's most-loved book &...

I LOVE YouTube, it's like a scavenger hunt. I was looking at travel videos, which led me to Polish-language lessons (I'm trying to re-learn Polish), which led me to Polish musicians like Feel: YouTube - Feel - No poka? na co Ci? sta?

I've seen Matisyahu several times when he's appeared in my area. I don't consider his Hassidism a shtick, since he doesn't wear the "Flat brimmed black hat" & other somber clothing associated with Hassids in stage shows. On his last appearance here he wore jeans & a hoodie (& yes, a yarmulkah)...

Today, it was announced that a local independent bookseller has decided to close the chain. There was, briefly, a branch in my neighborhood. When my teen-aged nephew came to mow my lawn, help me around the house, or just to get away from his parents, our favorite way to have lunch was to go to...

I have no real comment on yoga. I attempt it from time to time, although I like watching it on TV (while eating cookies...lol). I found this in the current JewishSource catalog: TORAH YOGA PB BLOOMFIELD - Jewish Source - The Source for Everything Jewish=

Curiosity killed the cat.. ...and satisfaction brought it back.

I sort of miss the ads. I would guess which ad would be up as I signed in. I pretended I was developing psychic powers that way.

I'm a "pray whenever & where-ever" person. I'll send up a quick "Thank you for keeping me from slapping that @#%$&!!!! supervisor (& letting me keep my job)" when I'm wandering between the settling basins at work, or "Thanks for letting us have Dad around" when I'm out somewhere with my dad...

I am a "Jew by choice". I grew up something else, & left that religion for too many reasons to list here. I spent years looking for a different faith. The first time I went to services at a synagogue I felt as if I had gone home. I believe I didn't actually choose Judaism; rather that it...

27 Dresses, Bucket List, Definitely Maybe, Baby Mama Though none of them was bad, the only one I'd want to see again would be "Bucket List".

I have a tiny patch of dirt (about half of a square meter) next to the front porch where I grow "shade" plants (it gets little direct sun), but have had some success with lettuce & kohlrabi. My back yard is paved, so I grow herbs, tomatoes, & peppers in pots. Last year my pepper plants were...

My claim to fame is that I was at the concert Carlin was arrested at. The world will be less huomorous without him.

Also, I can't edit my post or post more than once because if I try, I get a message scolding me because i haven't logged in, although the thingy at the top of the page that says "Welcome Garnet" says I have. *beats head on keyboard in frustration* My computer is ancient; I suspect that...

Thanks, seattlegal. Actually, I lost the entire "General" section when I updated Apple Quicktime, although I have no idea if there's any actual connection. I deleted the update from my system but didn't get "General" back, there's a blank area under that title. I can find individual forums...
