BIRTHDAY BUT NO BIRTH-DAY
Yesterday was my birthday but, alas, not also the birthday of my second child, who is still reluctant to come out. If Erika is still pregnant by Tuesday, the doctors will induce since they don’t like things to drag past two weeks.
Exciting news flash: Erika and I have seen an apartment that [...]

COME OUT, COME OUT, WHEREVER YOU ARE
The little one is still hiding out in the five-star accomodation known as Erika’s stomach. It (I use this word, but Erika and I are aware of the sex) already weighs 3.8 kilos, which means it ain’t a lightweight!
I was given a company car yesterday which is great, since [...]

MINE-ME’S DAD IS A SNAG?
Mini-me is still enjoying the comfortable life in Erika’s stomach! If this goes on for another week, the doctor’s will probably want to induce, which is a real pain (literally). Last time we had to induce since Erika was three weeks overdue! (Our doctor led us to believe she was “only” [...]

What Rhymes With Arafat

Arafat Arch terrorist A wolf in sheep’s clothing Beady little eyes Blood-soaked hands Duplicitous Conniving His aim is to drive us into the sea But in the meantime he’ll settle for a Nobel prize

Expecting the Expected

As expected, my expectant wife is still expecting. The day came and went without even the slightest indication that the little baby wanted out. Now we will just play the waiting game, like a couple of inmates due for parole. Mind you, after yesterday’s events here in Israel, can you blame the baby for being [...]

WHEN WILL THIS PALESTINIAN INSANITY END?
Just came out of a meeting and am greeted with the news of another terror attack against innocent Israeli civilians. And what do the palestinians have to say about this attack? Saeb Erekat, the Goebbels of the palestinians, gave a typically equivocal condemnation by condemning “any attack that is targeting [...]

DOING GOEBBELS PROUD
According to Worldnetdaily:
…the “martyrdom” death of 12-year-old Palestinian Mohammed al-Dura at the hands of Israeli soldiers ‚Äì which received widespread international news coverage and spurred on the current intifada, inspiring countless “suicide bombers” to attack Israel ‚Äì was actually a “staged” piece of street theater….The entire world was transfixed as news broadcasts played [...]

THE BIRTH……OF A WEBSITE
Well today is Erika’s due date so no prizes for guessing what is consuming me this morning. Given that she was 3 weeks overdue last time, I am not letting myself succumb to thoughts of “it is definitely happening today!” That is not to say that I have dispensed with carrying my [...]

I Don’t Like Cricket…I Love It

Still have cricket on the brain today. What a game last night! My heart goes out to the South Africans, but Sri Lanka did not deserve to lose the game, despite that last over.
I obviously love cricket, but I guess it could seem weird to the uninitiated. Overs, wides, LBWs, silly mid-ons, fly slips, googlies, [...]

My First Ever Blog Entry (I Am Just Warming Up)

Monday morning here in Israel and I must say I am in a very good mood today. Australia once again won a game of cricket, and here I am, without a care in the world. It is amazing how sports can help a person transcend the reality of life and can really affect one’s mood [...]
