Who gets the bigger chipotle?

 

Somebody made a statistical analysis of the weight of chipotles bought online (blue) vs. those who bought them in person (red).  There is a 30% difference. If you want to get Chipotle for your money, you better buy it personally.  

Nothing works without personal presence. 

Chatarra

 

Scrap metal (chatarra) in an Air Force installation in the South. These are the rests of an Iranian ballistic missile that fell in the Dead Sea. On my basis, we too had a collection of Iraqi missiles sent to us free of charge by Saddam Hussein.  They have grown impressively since then...

BTW, there were no such girls in our place. Everybody had to wear military hide boots. Some things have improved. 

Trauma Society

 

I read that 50 survivors of the Nova massacre - killed themselves. That others are in closed mental hospitals. This surprised me as I grew up among Auschwitz survivors, most of them having lost their families and husbands and children, and they had remade their lives quite normally. My uncle Joshka remarried, moved to Buenos Aires, and had no more children because of his luxury-loving wife Etha. Why does a simple massacre - a seven-hour event - cause them such mental harm? I am really astonished that the day after having been targeted by 300 missiles, everything here continues as always, and the children go to school and people continue working like nothing. Today, the war cabinet is deciding how and when to attack Iran. The streets are full and I am going to the Rami Levi supermarket because today is Tuesday - יום שוק

I may be depressed or what

 

In the last three days, I have been unable to do any work on my projects. Why? Possibly, the Iranian attack and today, the preparations for the counterattack. Wifey is also at home, and we talk a little. Nothing is happening in Kfar Saba, children are in school, and no queues at the supermarket. Yet it does affect me. 

Hope that tomorrow my working spirit will be back. I want to help my youngest daughter to buy an apartment. Could be in Harish. I shall need money. 

Israel is part of the West

 

Yesternight we were in danger and the West came to our assistance. It really is an ironclad alliance. We love the generous Anglo-Saxon people and their friends. 

Last Night's Victory

Mala tempora currunt, sed peiora parantur

Craig says we own nothing and that regulatory changes can erase even the illusion of owning financial goods.  True, there is no safety in financial property. In fact, there is no safety in any kind of property, not even your knowledge or prestige. 

Prestige used to be safe, but now the most famous scientists are being disinvited from meetings because they are Israelis or Jews or politically incorrect. The Haaretz supplement brings a psychologist who wrote a professional article on his treatment of Jewish refugees from the Gazan border and was refused because he had been treating people who were a potential danger to the Palestinians. 

I always knew that nothing is safe and money is nothing since Hungarian Jews - my grandparents - had to give up first their jewelry, then their businesses, and in the end their very lives. This is the unstable, unsafe environment we have to carry out our lives.
