138.05/ Being Jewish means calling a practice that began in 800 CE "recent" "new" or "modern". Have an easy fast. #TaanitEsther
138.07/ In the #Muppet #Megillah, the only human should be Esther, right @RabbiAudrey? I'm thinking Zendaya.
Gonzo will be Achashverosh & Vashti would be a chicken (Camilla). Esther will be chosen because Hegai dresses her in feathers. More casting ideas welcome.

138.07b/ We're working on this.
Strangepork as Haman. Why? Ham-Man, that's why.
Zeresh is Ms. Piggy - making all of the family pigs, including the 9 of the 10 sons with one being an actual dolphin.
Mordechai is Kermit
Charvona is Pepe
Hatach is Fozzie
Hegai is Scooter

138.10/ This is very cool.
Rembrandt knew the Dutch Jewish community & he has a lot of Biblical subjects.
[Alt-text: this is a color oil painting of the party of Esther with Achashverosh & Haman. E is well lit, H is in dark shadows & A is halfway]

138.12/ #Purim 5783 I'm living the Modern Orthodox dream: everyone in the house but me has been preparing for #Megillah layning. My son did 3 shifts last night & 2 today. My wife & daughter are layning right now at a women's service. Me? In a #Steelers jersey fielding the door.
138.13/ For #InternationalWomansDay #IWD I usually make detailed lists of the women I follow but ever since M*sk took over, I feel it's a waste of energy putting so much work into this sputtering website. Please see my list of last year.

138.14/ I benched gomel this morning because of a real #Purim miracle: the weird weather & high winds on Tuesday knocked my neighbor's tree down - all 40 feet, 3 tons of it - and it fell in BETWEEN the two houses. Nobody was hurt. The firefighters etc. remarked at our great luck.
138.15/ #ChochmatNashim for #KiTisa 5783 @ChochmatNashim
