SC vs. NC
Category: politics


SC's finally eclipsed us NC folks in some area. The best our former senator could do is some cougar videographer. Meanwhile Sanford goes for Argentinian hotties. Bonus kudos if the whole affair involved an exceptionally well-done tango.

It's incubation of young minds like this that make me proud to be an alumnus of North Carolina State University.

Plumber Recommendations
Category: apartment
The kitchen sink in our new place still doesn't work. After two weeks, we're still washing dishes in our bath tub, which is starting to feel real 19th century-like. The handyman guy who the landlord was gonna have come by today is absent, and we can take it any longer so we're going to hire someone ourselves and then deduct the bill from our rent.

Can anyone on estrip recommend a plumber they've had good experiences with?

My building plumber is a very efficient bloke but he in inordinately fond of pouring dishwashing fluid down the drain. He lives in my building. I don't know his number though.

I realize this is not a very helpful comment but if there are no recommendations in the next few hours, I can probably phone my manager and get his contact details.

Yitg'dal
Category: crash
I had this dread today that someone who I knew was on board the plane that crashed.

An hour or two ago I got an e-mail from my synagogue mailing list informing us that our cantor, Susan Wehle, died in the crash. I didn't know her very well, but she was a lovely person, had a beautiful singing voice, and was very enthusiastic about her job. She was the person who would have done the blessings at Ari's bris if the Rabbi weren't around last April.

We'll miss you, Susan.
