The lasting effect that Israel has had on me is a taste for Bissli. What's even more exciting is that the Potomac Yards Harris Teeter carries Bissli now! Seriously! And here I thought I would only be able to find it at Wegmans! WOOO!!!!
Fine dining is a lot of money for delicious by tiny portions. Restaurant week is a bargain??!!??
As someone who has spent years playing guitar, and harnessing their craft - I find Rock Band to be an abomination. A fantastically fun abomination.
Norman Mineta would've approved Metro to Dulles. But instead we're stuck with these anti-transportation assclowns. And to your people bitching about the tunnel, Bechtel built the rest of the system with a design/build no-bid contract, and they did a fuckin' good job. Plus tunnels = cost overruns. And honestly, those of you trying to scuttle the elevated track, you weren't for the tunnel either - you wanted to kill the damn project either because of some misguided notion of "slow growth" or because you didn't want to hand a political victory to a primary rival. But I digress. Assholes. We need that train.
I downloaded all of Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass's Going Places album because I wanted to expand my collection of cheesey music. But I'll be damned if Tijuana Taxi isn't a catchy song. Is it possible I'm starting to ACTUALLY enjoy Herb Alpert instead of just IRONICALLY enjoy him?

I love open WiFi. Especially when I'm hanging out near the Dead Sea. Now you may be wondering - "Mike, why aren't you IN the Dead Sea?" Unfortunately, this morning I had a flare up of a cornea abrasion I suffered 6 years ago at the hands of a USA Today. Somehow, surrounding myself with salt water seemed like an absolutely terrible idea.
We spent a large part of the day today at Masada. This was probably the first time that I got to truly come up close to Roman ruins. We watched the sunrise, discussed the history, and walked down the side of the mountain.
A nature preserve was the next spot. Some attractive waterfalls, and the Deer-like Ibix. I learned that Deer are Kosher, but Ibix are not - something about hoof splitting. Who knew?
Word has gotten around that I have a computer, and I've been able to find WiFi hot spots. Of course, everyone has been asking to check their email. I'm debating whether or not to charge.
