"Only Driven to Temple by a Rabbi on Saturdays?"

Is there a difference between thought and action? Just because a hairless monkey thinks of an action, it doesn't mean that he'll actually commit it. On the other side, the Enemy does stress the importance of the intention of the heart over action.

Fine, but how does this apply to one's Prius?

Rabbi Dror Fixler, an electro-optics expert from Bar-Ilan University in Ramat Gan, Israel, may have an answer for that. He believes that mind controlled cars would allow Jews to drive on the Sabbath (story here).

My question is what if a person's mind was transplanted into a huge robot body? Would he be allowed to do EVERYTHING on the Sabbath?  Who knew that new worlds of sin would be opened up by Robocop!  Then you'd have Jewish denominations separated into Orthodox, Non-Orthodox and Aluminum.

But Bureaucracy IS Hell.

Thank the Devil, I don't live in Saskatchewan! Sure they are the world's largest supplier of uranium so they have a soft spot in my heart. However when I'm pimping out my gremlin with chrome rims and vinyl graphics, I don't need anyone messing with my vanity plates.

Seems a Mrs. Harris tried to get a vanity plate for her husband emblazoned with his adorable little pet name, "Diablo". "Not so fast", said Saskatchewan Government Insurance, and they put the kibosh on the "offensive" name (story here). OFFENSIVE? And I bet they'd allow the name "Angel" without so much of an "Whut are you doin, eh"!

Canada in recent years has been slowly repealing the right to free speech especially when it comes to "racially sensitive" materials. It does make our work tougher, but maybe I should be looking on the dark side of things. When a person can't choose what to put on their own car maybe it is a sign of greater restrictions to come.

Promising Youth

We'd like to salute a promising young lad from Hastings, MI who has great future ahead of him. He stole a neighbor's car and and went on a rampage. Not bad for only being eight years old. We wish him a speedy recovery and encourage his parents to continue to ignore any parenting advice they might be given after this incident. Hopefully with direction (or lack there of) he can graduate beyond driving at a "mediocre" speed, and move on to driving like a bat out of...well, you know.
