Will's Good Idea for the Week of 10/12/25

Baaah....we awake tired and frustrated. We need more coffee...ah, there we go. 

Yesterday was the last day of Sukkot. Our congregation met for dinner at the synagogue. The event was pleasant enough. 

Yesterday we donned blue jeans for the first time since May. Whoa, those jeans are loose. We're not sure why. We've had something of a sweet tooth the last couple of months. That's what one risks when one marries a girl who can bake. 

So the other day we bought one of them fancy King James bibles and began reading it. A King James bible isn't official as far as Judaism is concerned. But it's foundational to modern English literature. After reading a few chapters we realized that we know this document better than we thought we did. Yes...we'll read the New Testament too.

The hostages will come home tomorrow, or maybe even today, they say. Already it seems Hamas is playing games. That is a very bad idea. Do they really want to come between Trump and his Nobel Peace Prize?

For two years we've begun every morning on Substack with, 'Good morning, Substack. This is your daily reminder that Hamas chose war.' We've always gotten a lot of crap on Substack from leftwingers and Islamists. But we're also getting a lot of crap from right wingers now, Tucker Carlson types, the so-called Woke Right. For example, we're hearing from a Christian pastor. Anyway, those reminders stop tomorrow. We'll also have more to say on this matter at the appropriate time

Will's Good Idea for the Week of 10/12/25...Again, we're tired and frustrated. Bogged down in the Troubles with an unwieldly novel that gets bigger the more we work on it. The more we write, the more we have to write. We need to write one more pre-invasion chapter. See what we mean?
