Yesterday my blog was a victim of Google’s SpamBot going out of control, today, it’s a victim of Sitemeter combined with Internet Explorer. If you are having trouble seeing this site using Internet Explorer 7.0, so are thousands of other people who visit sites that use SiteMeter on their blogs. I use the FireFox 3.0 Browser and this site renders FAST and QUICK without any errors. There’s no waiting or pausing for any of the sidebar widgets to load because the site just loads the way sites were meant to load. The FireFox 3.0 Browser download is just a dash

Requisites to Religiosity

164 views

I realize that this post is vague; I have chosen to make it innocuous on purpose – because the damage to me by this JBlogger is already done. I write this in response to a personal conflict between me and one JBlogger who prides himself on his Orthodoxy and great fame on the internet. I am hoping that he will one day realize that Hashem judges us for our moral choices, not by how popular our websites are. It’s not the number of hits one’s site receives, but rather, the content of our moral decisions that matters in this world.

I’m home!

Hi everyone, I’m home! I was in the hospital for the last six days having come down with a pretty severe bacterial infection in my tummy. I’m home now and still mending, but it looks like I’m going to be ok. I can’t tell you how much your kind words, wishes, prayers, and concern meant to me; they helped me think positive thoughts and I couldn’t wait to be able to go home to write this very post to let you all know how much your words meant to me. I was able to read my email on my cell

A great idea from Angel on how to start each day with a positive outlook:1. Create a new file folder on your computer.2. Name it ‘Hillary Rodham Clinton.3. Drag it to the recycle bin.4. Empty the recycle bin.5. Your PC will ask you, ‘Do you really want to get rid of ‘Hillary Rodham Clinton ?6. Firmly Click ‘Yes.’7. Feel better instantly. Next week we’ll do Nancy Pelosi, Leslie Cagan, Mahmoud Admadinejad, Hassan Nasrallah, Hamas, Fatah, and anyone else who supports Islamofascists merely because the world was cursed by having its main energy source located under the feet of savages.

Haveli Havilim #150 is up today at Soccer Dad. As always, there are some great posts from all around the JBlogosphere, but I especially want to bring your attention to this collection of Abuse of Power posts, that articulate how, under Olmert’s fascist government, Israel has morphed into a dictatorship, where no Jew is safe from speaking out against the Israeli government. Bloggers beware. From Soccer Dad: A contributor at Mystical Paths Blog & Emunah Paths Podcasts is called in for interrogation and INTIMIDATION ! ! !. Shiloh Musings writes about some teenagers who found themselves in the Wrong Place,

All JBloggers are not the same

119 views

I very much enjoy reading A Simple Jew, and it’s one of the few blogs that I visit on a regular basis. This morning I stumbled upon this post at A Simple Jew, Used Properly, which is a link to an article on Yeshiva World by Rabbi Avi Shafran provocatively entitled Blogistan. Rabbi Shafran sums up Jblogs as anonymous as well as obnoxious, with personal opinion-diaries which display utter disregard for essential Torah ideals like the requirement to shun lashon hora and hotzo’as shem ra; to show honor for Torah and respect for Torah scholars. The Rabbi also includes that
