Contemplating Jewish men from where they can't see me

Aug 24, 2012 15:29

This morning outside my local supermarket there were a couple of guys collecting signatures on a petition. I walked past one of them twice; the other, once. The one I passed twice ignored me both times even though he was otherwise unoccupied. I said, "Howdy!" to the other one, and nodded, and he still ignored me. I'm getting real good at this!

I find on Facebook that my daughter-in-law posted a link to an atrocity story about lynchings of young Arabs by groups of young Israelis aiming to protect the purity of their women. Yeah, I can believe it! Israeli tourists used to protect the purity of their women at Plato's Retreat! The news about the lynchings reaches me the day after I started reading Portnoy's Complaint. Allah be praised! I'm slogging through the muck! What God wants, God gets! At least I'm invisible.
