Shalom aleichem. Anniversaries are of course celebrated, for among other things, to mark and honor special occasions, personal milestones, and historical events. On the personal front, my wife and I celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary recently, and I can’t speak for her, but I for one would sign on for 40 more, or at leastContinue reading “The Jew News Review – September 15, 2024 – “Anniversaries””

The Jew News Review – Special Debate Edition – “Here’s my “concept of a post”
Last night the orange turd was baited into being his unhinged self, but instead of playing to his homies at one his insipid rallies, he was demonstrating to the mega millions tuned into ABC’s greatest show on earth that he is so full of lunatic shit that not even a full body diaper could haveContinue reading “The Jew News Review – Special Debate Edition – “Here’s my “concept of a post””
The Jew News Review – July 27, 2024 – “Bye, Bye Biden, hello Kamala Sutra”
Shabbat shalom! And a tip of the kippah this week to President Biden, who made a great personal sacrifice by putting the country before politics. More on that later, but what a week! The news keeps coming hard and fast, as though the whole world is on some kind of cocaine binge and doing aContinue reading “The Jew News Review – July 27, 2024 – “Bye, Bye Biden, hello Kamala Sutra””
The Jew News Review – Special Edition – “Israel Myth Busting”
Shabbat shalom! I recently was part of a family text chain that somehow veered off into Israeli politics. I am not a fan of text chains in general and usually avoid attempting to communicate anything serious on a platform usually reserved for confirming logistics around grand children or posting silly birthday or fantasy sports memes,Continue reading “The Jew News Review – Special Edition – “Israel Myth Busting””
The Jew News Review – July 20, 2024 – “The boiling frog of Democracy”
Shabbat shalom! Given the continuous gut punches we sustain from the daily news cycle, especially this week, I want to start with a tip of the kippah to The Jerusalem Youth Chorus, who appeared on America’s Got Talent with an inspiring performance of “Home”, by Phillip Phillips. Despite the violence surrounding them, this group ofContinue reading “The Jew News Review – July 20, 2024 – “The boiling frog of Democracy””
The Jew News Review – July 13, 2024 – “Dog days, baseball, and eccentric British politicians”
Shabbat shalom! This heatwave is making me more than a bit irascible, and the news here in the Jew S of A, doesn’t help my temperament much either. To avoid inducing any further anxiety, and to keep my optimistic wits about me while I watch a perfect political storm potentially demolish our democracy, I haveContinue reading “The Jew News Review – July 13, 2024 – “Dog days, baseball, and eccentric British politicians””
The Jew News Review – June 29, 2024 – “Drumbeats from the north”
Shabbat shalom! I will refrain from piling on any further with any post-mortem analysis of the not so great debate. Over the next several days we should see a tremendous amount of pressure from Democratic operatives, columnists, media, influencers, etc to do what the New York Times already did: recommend that Biden withdraw from theContinue reading “The Jew News Review – June 29, 2024 – “Drumbeats from the north””
The Jew News Review – Special Debate Issue
Pa-thet-ic 1. Adjective: Arousing pity, especially through vulnerability or sadness My father was an avid and passionate Boston sports fan, but a most temperamental one. He would often literally shut off a playoff game if the Boston home town team were playing poorly, even if it was very early in the game. “Dad, what areContinue reading “The Jew News Review – Special Debate Issue”
The Jew News Review – June 22, 2024 – “Supreme heat”
Shabbat shalom! Much of the nation is sweating under a heat dome that sits stubbornly over a wide swath of the country. Maybe the oppressive heat had something to do with the latest mass shooting in Arkansas, but probably not. We live in a country of gun culture gone wild. According to the Every TownContinue reading “The Jew News Review – June 22, 2024 – “Supreme heat””
The Jew News Review – June 15, 2024 – “The case for optimism”
Shabbat shalom! And a shout out to all the Dad’s out there. I miss my old man, but think of him often and wish he could be here to enjoy the new generation of Hirsh Govermans, many of them sporting some shade of his amazing blue eyes. If you are someone like me who watchesContinue reading “The Jew News Review – June 15, 2024 – “The case for optimism””
