The Jewish holiday of Pesach (Passover) starts tonight, which means:

- Nihyeh Beseder (an in-joke for the Hebrew speakers)
- My traditional pre-Passover post full of video goodness
I’ll start with this song by 70s/80s British rock band Joy Division!

Chag Kasher V’Sameach!
There won’t be any blogging on here until at least tomorrow evening Israel time. Because that’s how we roll.
On a more serious note, here is a brief excerpt of IDF soldiers singing Hallel, one of the major prayers of Passover morning. From their mouths to God’s ears, and a happy Passover to you all.

Happy Passover, Dave and everybody celebrating the holiday. Special thoughts for the people of the Kansas City area dealing with the recent tragedies at the Jewish Community Center and Jewish Care Facility. Knowing this kind of hatred still exists in the world wears me down little by little and leaves me feeling a bit empty.
