Rosebud

Citizen Kane is a dream. I don’t mean it is a great movie. It is but I’m saying that what takes place in the movie is a dream; Kane’s dream. From the time he lets go of whatever control he thought he had and drops Susan’s globe onto the foor to the sled thrown into the fires of Hell we are watching his last moments of cognition before he dies. The No Trespassing sign at the film’s opening is a warning to us. We the viewers are about to enter his most private thoughts.

By Popular Demand: The Accident Story

As it turned out I landed against the wind. Combined with the rotation that tilted the aircraft left and it hit on side. Had I landed on the right side I wouldn’t have made it. I didn’t “crash”. The NTSB called it an “uncontrolled descent and impact with terrain”. They really hate the word crash. That impact left me with 16 broken bones, a bruised lung, torn ligaments and a body full of sore muscles. The lid’s the only thing that kept my head in one piece and even though the harness ultimately failed it kept my spine intact. Too many pilots dismiss safety gear as uncomfortable and unnecessary. I credit it with saving my life.

Tsahal or Not Tsahal, That's the Question

I’m an education materials director, company commander under the Education and Information Division, formerly Hasbara. Try saying that with a gob full of cholent. Education is used here in its most euphemistic sense. I produce propaganda. My job is to make tsahal smell like peaches and ice cream. We also make training films but I’m glad to do that. I am a strong believer in quality training. My company is usually eight people. Sometimes more, often less. My unit commander lets me hire whoever I want as needed, under strict limitations. He is a very nice guy for a sa’al. My division commander is more strict but they have known each other since thier officer training days so there is give and take. Beyond that is the corps commander, directorate commander, chief of staff. I’ve only really met the new ta’al and have not been formally introduced to the alufs.

The Dating Game: First Impressions

So now I have gone from a pampered shoe whoring princess to a butch communist sympathizing nudist foreigner. That is not what these men are looking for in a wife. Therein lies the problem. I’m not looking for a husband. I’m sure I will get married eventually but I really don’t want to right now. I’m busy. My mother complains when I date goyim since she wants me to marry a Jew. I will point out that I’m not going to marry them; that we are merely dating. If I’m upset with her I might use another word besides dating.

Most of the men I’ve dated lately think like my mother. I find this very disturbing.
