re: Musings
Pardon my eavesdropping. . .
Excellent, if rambling, post - and definitely incisive.
You missed (intentionally?) Brosz's tendency to bend the topic toward one of his hot buttons whenever possible, in order to repeat a pronouncement... but I don't hold that against him any more, either - I guess I've become accustomed, if not exactly immune.
To be painfully honest, I rarely read your posts last time you were "here". I tend to avoid entire threads that have already degenerated into screaming name-calling by the time I get to them. This time, I'm reading you.
We on the blue-shifted end of the spectrum need a good curmudgeon.
btw - you're going to rehearse on Shabbas? Not after sunset, I hope! ;-)
