139.02/ #MotzeiShabbatMovieNight finale. One the greatest movies ever, Stalag 17 (1953). 'Nuff said.

139.03/ When I decide to listen to the White Stripes, it's to hear the drums. Meg White is awesome.

[Not surprised this discourse has been sparked off by some pathetic ball-headed misogynist who I blocked within the first week I was on Twitter.]

139.04/ My kids know when the #NYR are on because they'll hear me yawp "Shoot!" over & over. They just pass too much & miss open shots. Right now the ESPN booth agreed and the voice is familiar: it's Mark Messier! Holy validation, Batman!

139.05/ Happy to present the latest piece from my wife, Dr. Rebecca Cypess, in @The_Lehrhaus. It's a piece about reimagining what we think of as "Jewish Music" with many sources from halakha and Jewish history.

139.06/ I pulled off what I call the Full Memento Mori today by going to my doctor in the morning and dentist in the afternoon.

139.07/ #NachasAlert: My son has an article in this week's Torah journal of his HS:

And his from last year, why not:

139.08/ It's a #shehechiyahu type of day! Because of the long Friday, we get to have our first grilling of the year. And our local kosher Ice Cream place is open for the season, as well. This is why we have the bracha; I'm really feeling it.

139.09/ For random bracket season, here's voting for best Simpsons' episode. I tried saving people time by cutting to the end:

139.10a/ Still time left to vote:

139.10b/ My candidate for most #Mets injury is the cascade of Cespedes injuries culminating with the Whatever Pig Incident.

Then there's this cartoon from by Edward Steed in the NewYorker from 2017.05.22 "Mets Injury Schedule"

139.11/ Every political rival of his should carry around a pudding cup during a debate and ask him if he's hungry.

[Note, this is not what "regular guys" do. C'mon now. Not in front of people, anyway.]

139.12/ Re: #Mets injury luck.

[Also, if he could get injured in this weird way, no way he was making it all the way through the season.]

& my reflection on the trolls who swarm whenever a woman speaks with authority on the internet:
