Healthy young things

"Healthy young animals are the future of your business. That's why it's crucial to choose a nutritious milk replacer. "


A few days ago, Dov Bear mentioned a number of blogs he visits regularly. So I checked 'em out. Several are more than interesting (and I haven't checked all of them, so these are not the ONLY interesting ones):
Godol Hador <http://godolhador.blogspot.com/> ,
Hirhurim <http://hirhurim.blogspot.com/> ,
RenReb <http://www.renegaderebbetzin.blogspot.com/> ,
Velveteen <http://velveteenrabbi.blogs.com/> ,
PsychoToddler <http://www.psychotoddler.blogspot.com/> ,
YitzhakEyezik <http://www.yitzhakeyezik.blogspot.com/> ,
Amshinover <http://amshinover.blogspot.com/> .

Dov Bear himself is at: http://dovbear.blogspot.com/
Read Dov Bear's blog. You won't regret it. Unless you voted for Bush, in which case you should call a priest and have that daemon cast out. Seriously. Get help.

Another favourite blog is Mar Gabriel,
http://margavriel.blogspot.com/2005/09/rosh-hdhesh-qiddush.html
Mar Gabriel fascinates because he writes, often with great charm, about a lifestyle almost mediaeval - the obsessive scholarly interests, the almost frantic pursuit of talmedish shabbesdikke involvement (trying to answer the eternal question: what and where am I eating this shabbes, and how will this shabbes differ from the ones that went before), and the habitus of a lomdishe olam.
All rather reminiscent of either the scholar at Oxenforde from Chaucer, or clerks at the University of Paris in the late middle-ages.
It is also refreshing to find writing that, almost obsessively, employs diacritical markings.

And if you visit Mar Gabriel, also visit Steg (dos iz nit der šteg) at http://www.boroparkpyro.blogspot.com/
Just be carefull not to ask him about his lesson plans.
