I was thinking about how we were going to pass the time in
the lull after the election, when it occurred to me that we should start a
"two old Jewish women talking democratic politics blog". We would
assume the personas of two ancestors – I have a Nadia that could go many
(ethnic) ways – and we start with a combination of relevant links and totally
obscene comments, and then slowly but surely get people who are coherent to
join in the conversation.
I also can offer up a family friend who could act as the technical
advisor on all things Judaism. Sort of like the retired colonels who serve as
consultants on war movies. I submit the following description of his wife’s job
as his application:
"We're Eastern European Jews, we’re natural born social
workers"
Let me know if you don’t think this is the worst idea ever.
