Little Boy Jew Come Blow Your Horn

I couldn't resist the post title. It fits too perfectly, and the number one rule to get your story read, is have a catchy title.

Sitting in the park today, soaking up the sun I watched as two men wearing some traditional style Jewish clothing were handing out free honey, blowing a shofar (ram's horn) and as I learned publicizing the coming new year -Rosh Hashana.

It turns out that Rabbi Akiva Herzfield of the Congregation Shaarey Tphiloh in Portland is inviting everyone to attend the free service at 4:30pm on Saturday the 19th. this year

"Now is the time to reach out and remind people of their Jewish roots, and to invite them to greet the New Year" -as the good Rabbi is quoted in the September 12, 2009 Portland Daily Sun.

Herzfield and 'David' were also handing out free 4-ounce jars of kosher honey while promoting their new year services.  The honey is made in Portland. The honey is very tasty and you can get more info and even purchase some at OVERLAND HONEY.com.

The last few posts I did on circumcision generated a crazy amount of traffic for my little blog. It even carries out a few days. A couple of times I got a spike from a post mention or a StumbleUpon submittal.... I should do more controversial posts on purpose.

Nah, Ill just do what I do. Moving on.

• I have closed the Circumcision poll early. The winner was pretty obvious. And with 211 votes. No received 178 to Yes 33. 84% No.
  
• I have almost finished the hardwood floors in the house. I only have the closet to complete.
• The new roof was finished on Wendsday. No more leaks.
• The poision ivy rash I have on just about 40% of my body seems to be subsiding. It turns out that I didn't need the prednisone I was prescribed. I think Ill just hang on to it in case I ever get it worse than this. Which would be tough to beat. At one point my face was swelled up like a chow dog and my dick looked like a bratwurst. FYI jewel weed seems to work. It at least feels good.
  
• I fucked up at work and forgot to have the field person collect lab samples. Fuck! Now the excavation is closed. I really can't blame my self too much, I have been overloaded and doing too many tasks at once. Something was bound to get dropped. Fuck though, I'm better than that.
• The weekend should be interesting. I may be attending a beer brewing demo. I'll let ya know how that turns out.

-Have a good weekend.
