Similes

Some similes, for the poet in all of us: Computers are like elephants - they have a good memory and you would want an angry one charging at you. Ideas are like ducks. Both have webbed feet, and both have feathers. No, wait....not ideas, swans. My room in Israel no longer smells like cholent [beef stew]. And there was much rejoicing, and the townsfolk were merry.

I leave in a few days. Less rejoicing, less merriment. Oh,well. I can always take solace in the fact that I am not (last I checked) Michael Jackson, nor am I Martha Stewart.Yeah, that's it. I feel better already.
