Last month I went to visit America for a couple weeks and I recorded the entire trip on the Twitter. Here are all my tweets, from the minute my vacation began to when I got back home. Sorry they’re in reverse order – I can’t find a tool that will export them from first to [...]
Read it and weep, people. Here I am in The Atlantic, holding forth on one of my favorite topics: chicken shnitzel.
My contention is, and has been on many occasions, that chicken shnitzel is the authentic Israeli cuisine because it is the only notable dish invented by Jews in Israel that’s culturally accessible to all [...]
I’ve always loved this picture (by the way, it’s not done with HDR). I took it in March or April 2005 at the end of a work day at the Temple Mount Antiquities Salvage Operation, an archeological excavation of material from the Temple Mount that had been dumped in 1999. The man in the picture [...]

This reminded me of a long-forgotten project I had, [...]

I wasn’t so keen on the idea of regional networks when they implemented it a few years ago. I thought Facebook was better when used only by people with access to university email addresses (in practice, only by students and recent [...]
If you, a loyal LWL reader, were waiting for just the right moment to ask me about how to control search engines’ results for your name, your earnest and eager hesitation can now come to an end. To make things simpler for everyone who wants to know, here are the top five things I think [...]
Forgive me for pointing it out, but I can’t be the only person to have noticed that the Dharma Initiative’s light blue and the United Nations’ light blue are one and the same. I’m going to go out on a limb and suggest that Dharma is a secret branch of the UN, or meant somehow [...]
