Hi Everyone! It is so great watching how Am Yisrael prepares for Shavuot. In Israel it is really special. Everything from full page newspaper ads on shiurim to dairy recipes for the meals. Israel is the place to celebrate Jewish holidays. I updated my Shavuot hotsites at: http://www.jr.co.il/hotsites/j-hdaysh.htm I updated the Shavuot Youtube video list at: http://www.jr.co.il/videos/shavuot-videos.htm ------------------------------------------------------------- Next week I plan (b"h) to launch my new website called: Hebrew Jokes http://www.hebrew-jokes.com So far, I added 49 Hebrew jokes / riddles to the system. The Hebrew has nikud and there is an English translation for each joke. The jokes are clean and suitable for all ages. It would be great if I can add at least 51 more jokes / riddles before I announce the site on May 23. If you know of a good short (1-2 lines only) joke / riddle that you think is funny and is suitable for all ages (no sex, no ethnics, no politics) please send it to me. If you send in Hebrew, please send as an attached Hebrew rtf file. If it is an English based joke, it should not have English word play in it - meaning that it translates to Hebrew without problems. THANKS!! Time for the jobs.... Happy Shavuot! Chag Sameach! Jacob ------------------------------------------------------------- The CJI report has been published on-line since June 1993.
