In the years to come there will be all sorts of reasons to remember the events of yesterday and today. Personally, I would rather not have the memory of snow covering my yard on November 7. It's only the first week of November and we've already had a hurricane and a nor'easter. And please keep in mind that this is officially not winter yet--it's fall. Our area still has a mega gas shortage and thousands still without power. Now with the nor'easter in play, the areas that were flooded last week are heading for flooding again. Normal seems to only be a word in the dictionary, because it sure does not apply to daily living right now.
I'm sure that somewhere in this mess there is a lesson we are supposed to be learning, but frankly, other than hope for the best and expect the worse, I can't fathom what that lesson is supposed to be. I'll leave further contemplation for later--just staring out the windows at the weather has given me the chills and I need a warm drink.
I hope that all of you have warm and liveable shelter and that you are weathering our current conditions in safety. Oh well, a lot of J bloggers were hoping for something to blog about other than yeshiva tuition and the state of shidduch making, and here it is.

"Tuition blogging" is at about one-tenth of its former levels. Most of the "tuition blogs" have shut down (except Yeshiva Sanity). Orthonomics is hardly blogging at all, much less about tuition. Tuition blogging is not in style anymore, and frankly, it's been done to death and there are plenty of old posts to read, so it's just as well.
