אַרְיֵה is my Hebrew name. Pronounced "Aryeh." Meaning is lion. My mother used to call me by the Yiddish equivalent -- "Label." May you have a wonderful holiday, whatever your religion (or lack thereof -- I don't want to exclude anyone). Chanukah begins at sundown today, 24 Kislev 5779 (December 2, 2018). ![]() הרחפת שלי מלאה בצלופחים | ||

Thank you, and my wishes for you to have a truly glorious Chanukah!

My Hebrew name is Aaron. Happy Chanukah! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Yidn, shreibt un fershreibt" "The Nazis entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everyone else, and nobody was going to bomb them. At Rotterdam, London, Warsaw and half a hundred other places, they put their rather naive theory into operation.

Happy Hanukkah! Just here stinking up my kitchen with latkes. "I've spoken of the shining city all my political life, but I don't know if I ever quite communicated what I saw when I said it. But in my mind it was a tall proud city built on rocks stronger than oceans, wind-swept, God-blessed, and teeming with people of all kinds living in harmony and peace, a city with free ports that hummed with commerce and creativity, and if there had to be city walls, the walls had doors and the doors were open to anyone with the will and the heart to get here." -- Ronald Reagan, Farewell Address, Jan. 11, 1989 Si vis pacem para bellum There are none so blind as those who refuse to see.

Chag Chanukah Sameach – חג חנוכה שמח | |||

You're going to feel a little pressure... |
Chag sameach, y'all! Bruce "The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with." -Douglas Adams “It is just as difficult and dangerous to try to free a people that wants to remain servile as it is to try to enslave a people that wants to remain free." -Niccolo Machiavelli The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -Mencken | |||

So, I would guess that your are from one of those southern tribes. ![]() Happy Chanukah!!

Some time in the past, Jeff Yarchin expressed horror that I was using a packaged mix and he posted his recipe here. I have lost track of it. Would you mind posting yours? My grandmother, although literate in Polish, Russian, and Yiddish, did not read or write English, so I don’t have her recipe. הרחפת שלי מלאה בצלופחים | |||

Ditto, while wishing y’all a blessed Chanukah season. When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own house, his possessions are undisturbed. Luke 11:21 "Every nation in every region now has a decision to make. Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists." -- George W. Bush | |||

My name in Hebrew is still Michael...they just say it different. My dads father was Jewish, he married a Catholic, she got excommunicated until he died...I don't remember him and I was reared a Methodist... Don't know what it all means to you and yours, but here's to a happy Chanukah to you. "Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor.” Robert A. Heinlein “You may beat me, but you will never win.” sigmonkey-2020 “A single round of buckshot to the torso almost always results in an immediate change of behavior.” Chris Baker | |||
