9月26日 Happy New Year..today's sermon You missed Rosh Ha Shana, the Head (Rosh) of the Year (Shana): the New Year, the celebration of the beginning of the world, the world's birthday. when you say Shana Tova to everybody, like happy new year, ...it means have a good (tova..like in mazel TOV...good luck) year ...began Friday Sep 18th at sundown. Then God lets you have 10 Days of Awe (it's ends this coming Monday) to make up for any bad deals you did or people you insulted. And then he decides which book to write you in, the book of life or the book of death. It's like waiting for Santa. What a present! That's Yom Kippur coming next. Yom means Day..... Kippur means atonement. The Day of Atonement. Then you pray, I'll be good, I asked people to forgive me, please give me another year. (OK, ditto) And you try again. It's a fine tradition, just like Santa Claus is a fine tradition. Only one trick you didn't know about. You can get forgiveness only directly from the ones you sinned against. That's the fine print. If you kill somebody I don't know how you get out of it since the victim can't forgive you. Maybe God could forgive, but he might have left. Judaism is about this life, not some life we don't know about. But anyway, the Good Book says the righteous of all the earth will have a share in the world to come. Amen. 9月23日 Health Solutions All emergency rooms are mandated to care for all who enter so long as they are
of own species. It is our form of national health care. Our hospital collects 35
cents on every dollar charged. I asked our CFO why he didn't charge only the 35
cents, then he'd be even. He couldn't figure out the math. 9月20日 Don't shake hands with germs The one you shook hands with just blew his/her nose. The reason for influenza
and colds in the winter is schools and parties and church gatherings. And then
we have this silly idea of shaking hands with the germs. Who started that
anyway? It was a lot safer when knights saluted by raising helmet visors. Or how
about when I was in the Navy, I would have been demoted if I didn't salute.
Imagine an apprentice seaman shaking hands with the admiral! Saluting
in church would be safer! (ha). Come to think of it, the minister is the
terrorist: He/she stands in line after the service and gets the germs by
shaking hands with everybody in the church and passes the germs on to everybody
in line. 9月12日 Can they hear us now? TWO MILLION marched in Washington DC today with signs saying stop the stupid spending. Can they hear us now? It's the SPENDING, stupid! We're out of money! 9月9日 Proof of what? Gold bullion this morning: On 09/09/2009 at 9:09 a.m. gold was priced at $999.00 an ounce. That proves that the sun will
come up tomorrow morning again. 9月4日 Socialism for the Masses They say you should think out of the box, OK, here are two ideas out of the box: 1. Since lawyers want socialized medicine, lawyers should be socialized also. Isn't a fair trial one of the rights of man? How can you have a fair legal system if you can't afford a lawyer? 2. Drivers by law are required to have automobile insurance in case they have an accident. Likewise, patients should be required to have medical malpractice insurance in case they accidentally have the wrong doctor. Why should the doctor be the only one who has the insurance? There you are for the new health and law socialism for our socialized government. Really out of the box, right? 9月3日 No You Can't I'm going to write a book in opposition to Obama: NO YOU CAN'T. Want to help? Here's a beginning. Add a few more. 1. No you can't get that job. 2. No you can't get a lower mortgage. 3. No you can't get a loan. 4. No you can't avoid your income tax. 5. No you can't save any money. 6. No you can't sell your house. |
