  Locked Away Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love to  answer the questions, however, and here is today's questions! Saturday 9: Locked Away (2015) Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it  here . 1) In this song, Adam Levine asks, "If I showed you my flaws, would you still love me the same?" Nobody is perfect. What little flaw do you have that you imagine makes you hard to live with? I tend to be messy and disorganized. 2) Adam sings along with R. City, a hip-hop duo from Saint Thomas. The U.S. Virgin Islands are known for clean beaches, snorkeling and diving and palm trees. Does the id...

Friday the 13th

 Yesterday Microsoft Outlook and Teams went down, paralyzing corporate America. This afternoon in New Orleans, a tanker hit a riverboat about to depart for a cruise.  That should have been the lead story … …until the FAA issued a nationwide ground stop. And then the National Weather Service went down …

Ramblings

 When I left the house Monday morning, front yard bunny was sitting right near the door.  When he saw me he hopped under a bush.   When I was driving home Monday night a rabbit darted across the street, right in front of my car, right in front of my house.  I don’t know if it was front yard bunny or one of his relatives. I would have been devastated if I hit it … Frustration #1 I made an appointment at the pharmacy for an RSV vaccine.  But when I got there the pharmacist apologized, her inventory said she had the vaccine but she couldn’t locate it.  I had to go back the next day, and I got the vaccine. Frustration #2 I was too busy (lazy) to go to the supermarket, so I ordered a grocery delivery.  They forgot to give one of my bags to the delivery driver; I had to call the store.  They delivered the bag the next day. But at least I earned enough points to qualify for a free turkey or ham for Thanksgiving.  We are going to have a wonderful fea...

To be Jewish in America, 2026 version

-
In 2017, Proud Boys shouted "Jews will not replace us" as they marched through Charlottesville, Virginia. Today the anti-zionists are in Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia, PA. They’ve targeted six Jewish and/or Israeli owned restaurants, shouting “Zios must go.” Targeted by the far right.  Targeted by the far left. But what they didn’t expect this time:  they wanted a boycott but created a Jewish food festival, lines out the door at each of the six restaurants. And well wishers were encouraged to buy gift cards and donate them to Jewish charities.  The restaurants win, the charities win, and the idiots who started this … sorry not sorry. Targeting small businesses isn’t peaceful protest.  Intimidating restaurant owners doesn’t help children in Gaza.  Creating chaos in Center City does not address the policies of the Israeli government or help Palestinians. On the eve of  Kristallnacht (the Night of Broken Glass … it’s clear what their intentions were. ...
