Cold and cloudy day

News has been spreading about yesterday's request for prayer that has been exaggerated and totally untrue. Please stop it. It's not helping anyone.

Today here the temperature has dropped constantly for the past 2 days and it is very cold even during the day. But after the weekend we expect the temp. to rise again. Everyone hopes it'll rain again ... heavy. We need the water. Another drought year would be disastrous for us.

We don't expect the demonstrations by the arabs to last for long. As many have already noted, the arabs have lost all energy, interest and hope to fight. It's a lost war for them. They just want to survive with a roof over their heads and 2 meals a day. Everyone is tired. You can actually see it in the people's faces .... expressionless, walking pass demonstrators without even a glance. Indifference. Disinterest. People are tired of being widows and orphans.

Everyone here is talking about the news that Germany is auctioning off the village of Alwine starting from $150,000. Imagine ... what would you want to do with a forested village with 20 dilapidated buildings? It calls to mind Greece selling off its islands. That's how far the economy has gotten.

Well it's the weekend and on Tuesday it'll be Hanukkah. Let's hope nothing will happen.
