Interesting who Facebook suggests to be my friend. Today it’s a theologian named Wayne. I didn’t know I traveled in such circles. <\/p>\n
It’s now 5770 on the Jewish calendar.<\/p>\n

It has confirmed my decision not<\/em> to be a rabbinics scholar.<\/p>\n I received in the mail yesterday a draft copy of a 2010 calendar with my photos.<\/p>\n Come to think of it, I did have lunch this week with a famous theologian.<\/p>\n Interesting to me how many followers I have on Twitter. Especially since I have never tweeted.<\/p>\n I’m having dinner tomorrow night with the provost of the best college in the world.<\/p>\n A pile of books literally just crashed down to the floor from the top shelf in my office.<\/p>\n Would you guess that I wrote this on a Friday night? I probably need one of those filters<\/a> that keep you from blogging if you can’t think straight.<\/p>\n And now I’m going to study Isaiah 3.<\/p>\n I’d better hit the “publish” button before I come to my senses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Interesting who Facebook suggests to be my friend.
