1. Michael, I'm sorry to disagree. The Leviticus verse "Love your rea' as yourself" refers to your fellow Israelite, not to your fellow person in general. I tried to convince myself otherwise, and failed. On the bright side, this is the very reason that the "image of God" verse trumps the "love your rea'" verse. I've been meaning to post about this (like many other things), and this may make me get off my whatever.

2. My hearing is crummy, so I couldn't understand most of the lyrics.

3. You're now using "Simchas," "Shabbas," etc. Is this new?

4. Shanah tovah, mo'adim lesimchah, a gut un gebensht yor, & miscellaneous c. Wishing you a sweet 5774.
