In order to jump-start this blog again (having finished redesigns of both blogs, plus a bit on an as-yet-unclear project) I'm introducing a brand new program, called Question Thursdays (alternate, more clever titles are welcome and encouraged.) Here's how it works:
- Thursday arrives in Israel, whatever the time zone you may happen to be in. This generally happens once a week, though there was that time when NBC scheduled two Thursdays in a row, so everyone could fulfill their must-see-TV obligation. They were showing a Very Special Friends episode (The One Where Ross Becomes a Heroin Addict But Gets Better and Phoebe Blows Up Burundi.)
- For 24 hours, you, my adoring readers send me questions - anything ranging from the idiotic to the inane. Seriously, any question at all (yes, you can ask me where you left the car keys, but I'm telling you for the billionth time, they're on the counter next to the phone.) Use the email address in the sidebar*, and don't fret if you feel like sending it earlier in the week.
- I will choose one or more questions to answer in a manner of my choosing. Please understand that "in a manner of my choosing" could mean "as I were a 15th-century villiage idiot ('Forsooth, while reading your missive, I didst soil myself in publick.') or it could mean "while riding Tobias, my pet manatee." (He's a magic manatee - much like a normal manatee, only more full of himself.)
- You read and commend me for knowing so darn much.
That is all. The answers should be up before Shabbat in Israel. Let's get rolling! And when you're done rolling, send me questions, you dizzy readers.
*Edit: You can Either post your questions or use that email address. See the 2nd and 3rd comments.
