On my way in to work today, I was listening to WBUR and heard a person talking about observing Sabbath on Fresh Air with Terry Gross. (NOTE: later found that it was Judith Shulevitz who wrote a book called Sabbath World) I got an idea, so here I am leaving note to myself. I gave [...]
This week, I mostly tweeted about Daisuke Matsuzaka’s outing, which as not on TV or radio, so had to follow beat writer’s twitter (which was kind of fun) and that was about it.
