126.01/ Week one-hundred and twenty-six, December 10-16, 2022, thread begins here.

Week 125 below.
126.02/ #MotzeiShabbatMovieNight continues with Superman (1978) the trend-setter for all modern superhero movies. Also IMO has the best theme music and I *love* movie/TV themes. Brilliant art direction, amazing cast.

#Jews are the people who refused to be comforted because they never gave up #hope. Jacob did eventually see Joseph again. Rachel’s children did return to the land. #Jerusalem is once again the #Jewish home.
