I'm not one for pointing out spelling/typing errors; but I couldn't figure out why all of a sudden you started using some crazy looking Hebrew words.

I hope everyone has a happy new year!!!

I do that a lot too.

I just found it amusing that my first thoughts were "Why'd she suddenly switch to Hebrew?" and not "Someone got creative with her spacing."

Someone needs to buy Buttonz a dictophone so she doesn't have to mess with that silly spacebar.

While $125 is expensive, it costs even more to join a temple. At our temple, that is the only way you can get High Holiday tickets, unless you have special needs, are of limited income, etc. Full membership can be as much as $5000/year not including hebrew school, etc.

For Christians, think of it this way- we don't give every week. We give upfront or pay for tickets. That is the equivalent of the collection plate.

Does that include guest passes, or are they extra?
