Somebody out there is missing their 15 minutes

While I was talking to a classmate of mine at the URJ Biennial last week I got a call from Cathy in the office. She told me that I just received a letter from the White House. I had her read it to me. It did not seem like the kind of thing that could wait until I got home.

The letter was in fact an invitation to the White House Hanukkah reception on December 6th. Martha and I are both invited.

Let me check my calendar.... are you kidding? Of course we are going. How many times (if you are not our friend Murray H.) do you get invited to the White House?

John Lennon said it best: “Strange days indeed. Most peculiar, mama.“
