Today's spam subject line of the day: Ultra Fresh Email Address Lists
You wouldn't want any of those stale or moldy email addresses, oh no...

Noticed this morning: the morning glories are making seeds.

Phrase of the day: "sculpture in time", used to describe Jewish holidays and festivals.

I have a card for prix fixe dinners at the Doubletree Suites in Waltham, for dinners starting before 6 pm. Does anyone want it?

It's that time of year again: time to for Hillel to get funding through the suggested purchase of tickets for high holiday services (not for undergrads, though); and for renewing support for the eruv (which has restructured their suggested donations for people with kids, who would theoretically use it 'more' (whatever that means), to pay more than adults, and families with more than one income to pay more than those with one, along with an option to volunteer time instead of money); and for Ma'ayan brochures to appear in my mail box as well. Ah, Elul z'man.

Or perhaps you crossed the international date line early, in a flash of speed late last night, wanting to avoid any barriers to the rest of the week?

(It was strange hearing NPR discuss the hot topic of the Barrier, meaning a security fence being built in Israel, of course.)
