Gretchen, the young leader of our Talmud study group of several years past, is applying to Hebrew Union College. She wants to become a rabbi. You go girl!
*Black pot was what the ancient rabbis, whose dialogues comprise the commentary on the Torah that is the Talmud, called themselves. Possibly derived from a nickname for Rabbi Zeira of the Jerusalem Talmud.
It usually waits in Central Texas to get cold, cold in December and then only for short periods with quick warmups. January is our winter and by mid-February it’s warming up for good.
Not this year. Freezing nights have already been here and more are expected.
No big surprise, says Martin Mlynczak of Nasa’s Langley Research Center:
Very few sunspots on the sun this year means “it could be about to get very cold very quickly…If current trends continue, it could set a new Space Age record for cold…It could happen in a matter of months.”
Oh, joy.

UPDATE: We’ve been spared the snow so far. We rarely get snow.

As they did with Justice Kavanaugh, the Dims are undoubtedly preparing a host of phonies to link the president with Putin, et al. Mad Maxine will be one leader, if not the principle one, in the circus. Aided and abetted by the Clown News Network and MSNBS.
Lots of sound and fury—and continual hints of impending impeachment—signifying nothing. All to provide a smokescreen to cover up a real something the GOPe was too slow to uncover: the crimes of the Deep State, spying on the Trump presidential campaign and whatever else Mule-face and his cronies Comey, McCabe and Strzok were up to during Bronco Bama’s reign.

“All in all, The Prestigious Middle Finger Book Review gives Michelle Obama’s Memoir ‘Becoming’ 2 of 7 Stars. It’s printed on really nice quality paper and is quite hefty for it’s size, so if you happen to receive a copy as a gift this holiday season, it will make an excellent doorstop and the cover image should help keep rodents at bay.”

I was wrong, in an earlier post, saying that “little Beto…[took] a whipping” in the mid-terms. Instead, he came close to beating Cruz. I guess a lot of Texans (or else newbies from Mexifornia) want gun control, an end to fracking, open borders and Medicare for all.
That’s scary, but that’s what Beto the fake Mexican stood for, among other lefty issues. And with his $70 million from California and New York backers and the Mediacrats backing he came within 2.6 points of winning. If the east and west coasts can buy interior elections, that’s bad news for everyone.
