First Post

I have never blogged before-but I have read other jewish blogs and enjoyed them. Ahem. First post.....Idea..........yah, here we go. First I'd like to comment about jewish blogs. Many are not very serious, but focus on the author's fascinating life. Others proclaim themselves as less than serious, and joke about jewish life in general. Some say ooooooh I'm super-serious and my opinion has weight. There are nasty blogs that attack individuals/judaism with happy abandon. There are self deprecating blogs that mock the blogger himself. There are blogs that attack this type of judaism or that, blogs that rant and rave. Most are full of crap. My blog will be a common sense jewish blog. (Surprise!) In it I will attempt in a humble kind of way to address serious and less than serious issues with the panache and vision befitting my humble self and my humble opinion. Humble, humble......mumble. I will try to keep it humorous yet pithy. For those of you who don't know what pithy means, I think it means to the point. Scoring 99 on my 6 hour Lit. Regents only gets me so far. All this leads me to my first post....
