More JBloggers Are Up For Weblog Awards
I went over to Jack's place to read Haveil-Havalim #97, and I was surprised and pleased to see that some more JBloggers are up for awards. In addition to Treppenwitz and ElderofZiyon, Dry Bones is up for best comic strip, and Jack himself is also in the running.
Go on over for some good reading, and while you are at it, vote. Voting is open for about another week.
What's a nice family like us doing in a place like this?
We are an Orthodox Jewish family that moved to Israel in 1991. We learned Hebrew, found work, moved to a nice suburban community 30 minutes from Tel Aviv, had a few kids...
Pretty boring, right?
It would be, if half the world weren't so obssessed with where we live.
The nice suburban community we moved to is in Samaria, in the west bank. When speaking to Israelis or other Orthodox Jews, we refer to the place we live in as the Shomron, using the biblical, Hebrew term for the region. We chose to use west bank in our name because it is more familiar to those who have never heard of the term Shomron.
Welcome to all of you interested in reading about what is happening in Israel from the perspective of a family living in a very newsworthy part of the world.
