Tonight, I will sing a song called Kol Nidre. In English, it means – “All Vows.” We are asking God to forgive all the promises we made and BROKE over the course of the year. It is a very solemn service. I wear white. It is about being pure. It is about being dignified. I…
So speaking of dancing, Michael Jackson was about the best dancer my generation ever created. And he had to “dance in the rain” a lot. His father was very verbally and physically abusive to his brothers and sisters. Michael had a rough life. In this song, ignore the romantic bits (saying I do – for…
I found this picture outside of the bathroom at the Oktoberfest. I saw it and had to have a picture for our website. Well, life is about to get stormy. Religious School started tonight, so I had to rush home and prepare for that. Tomorrow afternoon is the first meeting of my school Drama Club….

Suddenly, the walls adjacent to the front yard and their bedroom simply disappear. In no time at all, the cold night air snuck up on them. “Get your jackets on and let’s go. Both girls grabbed the closest coat and they walked across the threshold of their room to the front yard. They looked back…
“What’s that flashing light in the driveway?” Bea rose out of her bed. “I don’t know. I was sleeping, Bea. Until you woke me up.” Purity groaned. But then she noticed the front yard of their home was flooded with a lot more light than usual. “Hey, what’s out there?” Purity jumped out of bed…
