151.01/ Week one-hundred and fifty-one, June 3-9, 2023, thread begins here.

Week 150 below.
151.02/ This is the way
washingtonpost.com/nation/2023/06…
151.03/ Now playing thematic songs: "Ain't No Sunshine" by Bill Withers, "Blood of the Sun" by Mountain, "Sunshine Superman" by Donavon, "Here Comes the Sun" by Ritchie Havens and "The Sun is a Mass of Incandescent Gas" by TMBG
151.04/ This comic from Red Meat comes to mind #RedSun in NJ 3 panel comic. A screaming ...
151.05/ My old hometown is orange but then again, so is my current town. Luckily I've paid attention to the West Coasters who've reported their conditions in the past few years and know what to do (stay indoors, mask outdoors, daven)
151.06/ I hear West Coasters are peeved that their wildfires weren't as prominently covered as NYC's. Look, I live in NJ, I get it.

But a silver lining is that the world's media center going through apocalypse skies may actually bring home to leaders the doom of climate change.
151.07/ I don't want to get pummeled either, so maybe "bespoke hoaxtress"?
151.08/ From M*sk to the HBO/Max nonsense to the studios being struck by the WGA to that CNN goofball, we're learning that these people are willing to suffer enormous amounts of preventable losses in service of their retrograde ideologies.
nytimes.com/2023/06/05/tec…
151.09/ My earlier comments from this week about the sad #DeGrom saga.
June 5

June 6

(I recall how a "DeGrom Day" for me, a weary #Mets fan, during our down years was exhilarating & unlike any MLB experience. I hope he can return.)
150.11/ Songlist I'm playing for the flaming sky tonight:

"Burning for You" - Blue Öyster Cult
"Fire Woman" - The Cult
"Fire" - Hendrix
"Great Balls of Fire" - Jerry Lee Lewis
"Serpentine Fire" - EW&F
"Fire" - Ohio Players
"Smoke From a Distant Fire" - Sanford-Townsend Band
150.13/ This is the best booth in sports and they really know baseball and the #Mets and if you lose the booth, you're in real trouble. That's when I knew Callaway (ugh) and Rojas were done. #LGM
150.14a/ So far, 19 different transliterations of this weeks parsha:
1. B’ha’a’lot’cha
2. Be-Ha'alotcha
3. Behaalotkha
4. Beha'alotekha/BeHa'alotekha
5. Beha'alotcha
6. Behaalosecha
7. Be-Ha'alotkha
8. Behaloscha
9. Behaalotekha
10. Beha'alosecha
11. Biha'alotkha
12. BeHaaloscha
150.14b/ The 19 different transliterations of this weeks parsha, cont.

13. B’ha’alotecha
14. BeHa'alotekcha
15. Bha'alotcha
16. Bahaloscha
17. B’eha’alosecha
18. Beha’aloscha
19. Bi’haaloscho
150.14c/ And 2 more!
20. Bihaaloscha
21. Be-Ha'alotecha
151.15/ And now I see I misnumbered all above as well. This is getting messy. Thanks El*n.
151.16/ #ChochmatNashim for #Behaalotecha 5783 @ChochmatNashim

Downloadable PDF with working links of Divrei Torah by Orthodox women scholars.

151.17/ Thank goodness the air cleared up enough that I could grill for Shabbas, especially since this is the first since my son returned from Israel. So happy he's home. My grill, with sausage cook...
151.18/ This is art.

[Img: Pitcher for White Sox is "Burger", batter for Yankees is "King." Their names are next to each other on the screen]
151.19/ I'll end here. Have a great Shabbas everyone, stay safe and #ShabbatShalom!

233.01/ Week two-hundred and thirty-three, December 28, 2024-January 3, 2025, thread begins here.

Week 232 below. #HappyChanukah!
233.02/ #MotzeiShabbatMovieNight continues with a favorite - The Martian (2015) - that combined two of my other favorites: Cast Away (2000) & Apollo 13 (1995). Yes, I'm surprised Tom Hanks wasn't in this one.

233.03/ @ppppp1245688 is correct, and I just realized that it's the modern-secular equivalent of a Yissachar-Zevulun arrangement!

Week 231 below. Yes, it's super late, but this app is sputtering.
232.02/ Shiva minyans during #Chanukah are surreal. That is all.
232.03/ #MotzeiShabbatMovieNight was actually on Nitel-nacht (after we learned Torah, like good little Litvaks). And what else? Yippe-kai-yay, Maccabee.

Week 229 below
230.02/ The Assad regime collapsing over Shabbas #Vayetze seems especially appropriate. I had long compared Lavan to Assad, the urbane facade hiding real cruelty and depravity. I celebrate the toppling of a murderous regime and the liberation of Saydnaya prison.
230.03/ Mets Twitter is having a party right now. This is fun. #LGM

229.02/ #MotzeiShabbatMovieNight continues with Argo (2012), the rare winner of a best picture Oscar that's also re-watchable.

Week 227 below.
228.02/ Fundamentally, a plurality want a minority to do all the work but get no reward while they do very little work & get all the reward. The only system that will get close to that - liberal Democracy - gives too much to people the plurality hates, so they vote for fantasies.
