Happy New Year

In the spirit of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish new year, here is a bit of juvenile humor. Take it or leave it my friends.

Rosh Hashanah, 5766


I send greetings to all those observing Rosh Hashanah.


On this holy occasion, Jews around the world are called by the sound
of the Shofar to gather in celebration of the beginning of the New
Year and the creation of all life. For the Jewish people, this marks
the beginning of the Days of Awe, a special time to reflect on the
past year and welcome the year to come.


It is also a time to reflect on the history of the Jewish people, from
the days of Abraham to the present, and remember God's faithfulness to
them. This year, we mark the completion of an especially joyous
occasion, the 350th year of Jewish life in America. Throughout
America's history, Jewish Americans have strengthened and enriched the
character of our Nation.


Laura and I send our best wishes for a blessed Rosh Hashanah. L'shanah tovah.
