Google’s April Fools Joke
Google spent some time with their April Fool’s joke this year. They announced a free broadband high-speed internet service available to anyone. Read a little further and you see it connects through your toilet and that TiSP stands Toilet Internet Service Provider. Google TiSP (BETA) is a fully functional, end-to-end system that provides in-home wireless…

I Didn’t Make the Cut
Well, at least I was never the kid in gym class who didn’t get drafted for the dodge-ball team! Newsweek magazine has chosen to go into the “rabbi ranking” business and has listed their top fifty rabbis in America.

Pastor John Hagee at AIPAC
I can’t believe it’s almost been two weeks since my last posting. Although it does make sense since I’ve been traveling so much lately. We spent a week in Florida right after Purim and then I was at the AIPAC Policy Conference in Washington D.C. for a few days. AIPAC was a great experience with…

Purim Newsletter
Each week I send a newsletter via e-mail to over 400 subscribers on my synagogue‘s e-mail list. Since the Jewish holiday of Purim is coming up this Saturday night, I decided to send a special Purim edition. Hopefully, this will be an annual tradition. The Purim newsletter can be accessed here.
