My friend, Linda, is wrapping up a very important project.  I know I have mentioned her here, and she is certainly on my blogroll, but in honor of her 1000th Mitzvah, I needed to send out a reminder.
Linda, who lives in Portland, Oregon,  decided to perform 1000 mitzvahs in honor of her father’s memory.  For [...]

I was just reading Meg’s blog, A Practical Wedding, and loved one of her most recent posts.
First, she shared a new perspective on the glass breaking in  a Jewish wedding, and that was that an old Moroccan saying was related to the broken glass of a Jewish wedding, in that “A difficult beginning is a [...]

Heck no.  Why should I be nervous?
Because tomorrow I am officiating the biggest wedding in my career?  For a family known throughout the world for RATING people?  Well, yeah, ok…I’m nervous.  I didn’t say I wasn’t confident, but when you know that people who write about what people do for a living are judging you, [...]

There is so much to know about this wondrous activity called blogging.
I remember the first time I heard about this thing called a blog.  Hmmm, a web-log, eh?

Kind of like a documentary?  Ok, that too.

It is the eve of Max’s Bar Mitzvah.  I am back in the hotel, after spending the last few hours reading and preparing for tonight, and reflecting on the last 24 hours.  My heart is pounding for some reason, today, like that feeling you get when the police car turns his lights on behind you.  [...]

So, now that I have your attention…..
I am drowning in a world of Social Media I do not understand. Though it fascinates me, I could spend as many hours (if not more) on trying to figure out what to do with Facebook, Twitter, Linked In, Ustream, YouTube, and goodness knows whatever other resources are out [...]

Today, as I watch the Presidential Inauguration, just as millions around the world are watching, I am moved, and inspired.

So, I’ve really taken another writing hiatus, over the last few weeks, and I’m ready to get back in the saddle, again.
October, November, and December were the busiest months I have ever had, and I felt like I just needed to take some time away from business, to focus on life, in general.  With the [...]

Great teenagers – NOT an oxymoron anymore!

Today was one of the most enjoyable days and nights of the year.
No, I did not officiate a wedding.  Or a Bar Mitzvah, or even a Baby Naming.  I did not create some amazing worship service.  I did not create anything at all.
Today was my son’s birthday.  I shut off the computer, and spent most [...]
