Thank You Mel, and the Strange, Convoluted World of Blogs

Religious February 5th, 2008

Here’s to the strange and convoluted world of the blogosphere:

  • I “met” Mel on a website called MenWhoKnit.com, which is a collection of blogs by male knitters from around the world.
  • Of course, what little I know about him, I liked, so I started reading his blog (Cabezalana).
  • Apparently, he occasionally reads my blog.
  • The other day he turned me on to a blog by a Rabbinical student named Rachel Barenblat called The Velveteen Rabbi.
  • In her most recent post Rachel put on her blog was entitled Super Tuesday Eve and linked to a website called NeoHasid.org which printed a wonderful “Prayer for Voting” in both English and Hebrew.
  • All of which is a long way of saying “If you live in one of the ‘Super Tuesday’ states, check this out, it’s cool. Heck, even if you don’t, it’s worth your time.”

Sometimes I wonder if computers make things easier or more difficult!

Have a blessed, fattening, pre-Lenten, “super,” Tuesday.

Grace and Peace,

    Still not ready for “Men Who Knit,” but “The Velveteen Rabbi” seems interesting.

    The answer to your question is that computers make things simpler AND more complicated. Welcome to depravity (as if you were a new initiate).

    Interesting stuff, this. Some day, I may have to blog . . . or maybe not. :-)
