The things that I wonder pt. 1

So on Saturday we went up to Judy & Dan’s for Harris family “Christmas” which is almost always the second or third week of January and really defies the name of “Christmas” in every measurable respect. Even the Orthodox church is done with it by the time we get around to celebrating. The tree tends to be a bit long in the tooth by the time we get to it.

Not the point of this post, though. As we went from the QEW to the 427, it struck me: How do bald Jews keep their yarmulkas on?

Do they use double-sided tape? Suction-cups? Some kind of kosher paste? It’s not exactly keeping me up at night but I really want to know. Most non-bald Jewish men I’ve seen use a bobby pin or similar to keep things in place but that would hardly work for a chrome dome.

The fourth edition of the GG is available now. I’m not dedicated enough to the bit to actually dress up or mod anything to be steampunk/dieselpunk (a genre which had never even come across my desk before today) but I definitely enjoy the style and reading about it.

On employment

So I had a long chat the other day with a teenage friend who has recently graduated from highschool and is having a heck of a time finding a job. We discussed why this might be the case. He doesn’t get called back, he has had perhaps two interviews and he’s been out of school for about six months.

He hasn’t got much work experience but has some. He was active in student government and is reasonably intelligent and well spoken. Between myself and another friend, we think we may have figured it out.
