Two Interesting Articles

The first article, “Watch out, Missionaries!”, details the difficulties that two messianic congregations – one in Arad and one in Beersheva – face on a regular basis. The writer does a good job of representing things as I know them.

The second article, “Shoah victims – reincarnated sinners“, gives some insight in to the more mysterious side of Judaism. Clearly, not all orthodox Jews believe in reincarnation, but when the former chief rabbi declares it as a fact, one should take note. By the way, this isn’t the first time he has made this announcement, or other similar ones.

I Got a Parking Ticket

I recently received a parking ticket that I didn’t deserve. You can see the no parking sign about 20 feet in front of my car. There was no kind of signage or marking next to or behind my car. But I should have known not to park there.

When I pulled out my camera to take some photos of this injustice a passerby warned me that I shouldn’t park in that spot because “they give tickets there everyday.” “If it’s not marked and I don’t stand here everyday watching, how am I supposed to know that,” I asked. “I don’t know, but you shouldn’t park there,” he mumbled as he walked away.

Unfortunately, a $65 ticket is painful, but not so painful that it’s worth going to court to fight.
