Great minds...

This time it's all in one place. One Israeli copies from another Israeli... well you will be the judge

You spin me round, round

I am looking for the next trend. I am fed up with saying "shit, why didn't I think of that". Every now and then comes a new gadget that takes the world by a storm. Now it's the spinners (a fucking barring for christ sake) before it was the slime :-( and before that the cards and so on and so forth. So I am looking for the next one! It has to be cheap, easy to use and of course, useless.
So if you guys think of something, let me know before hand so I will stop the R&D that means Relax and Denial.

To die for

Every year, we commemorate our fallen troops and the innocent victims of terror attacks since the establishment of the Israeli state.
After a short 69 years of existence, we have managed to established quite a "collection" and in such a small nation, it seems like everyone has at least someone that was killed in a war or a terror attack :-( Someone recently told me, he feels like it has become more of a personal memorial day rather than a national one. I admit it took me a couple of minutes to realize that something is really warped here. Aren't memorial days built from personal loss?  We are so consumed with our survival way of leaving that our personal loss has blurred into our collective yearning for a joined cause.
Well, I for one can get along without both... It's time to stop "celebrating" death and start preventing the next one.

Truth be told

Good morning, sir, how are you? Thank you, please, you're welcome, sorry, sure, enjoy, have a nice day, of course, go ahead, my pleasure... I forgot what normal feels like.

I posted this on facebook a couple of weeks ago, a few days after arriving in NYC, because you usually notice these things when you travel. And yes, it makes it sound like where I'm from is the most unpolite place in the world.
But let me sort things up for you. It's true, us Israelis are rough. My fellow countrymen are for lack of any better word - crude. Maybe it's because we live our lives in a state of war or the fear of one. Or maybe we're simply a young nation and the evolution of culture takes time. But to be honest it doesn't really matter why. It's time to evolve. Don't get me wrong, there are amazing things here in my wonderful city of Tel-Aviv. We have amazing weather, beautiful beaches, superb food, great nightlife, cool people and it's really a great place to live (expensive but great). But... we can improve.
Now things are improving, all the time, but still I just wish it wouldn't take so long.
