I Love SHJ

I dont have any comments on the three weeks but recently my son Itzhak who is 12 and has Autism asked me

"Why does it mean something every time we eat? Cant we ever just eat and not have it mean something?" I think he had his own little SHJ over his shoulder that day. LOL

SHJ is hilarious! Keep him, by all means! And Happy Birthday, Eliahu (hope I spelled that right)!

As for Tisha B'Av, I think it's good that you, as a culture, keep your history relevant and alive and enforce the point that all people should learn from their histories. However, I don't know if I could do the whole no music or washed clothes or whatever else makes me happy thing. :P Have a sad Tisha B'Av!
