I’m asked for advice on what digital camera to buy quite often. I’m no photographer, but here’s my philosophy:
I’d rather have lots of decent photos taken with a small camera I take everywhere than few or no great photos taken with a camera so big that’s always left at home.

Feed Aggregator. Feed Reader. RSS Reader. News Reader. It’s all the same thing.
You’ve probably heard the term before but there is a decent chance you don’t know what it is or how to use them. If you regularly read news and/or blogs on the internet and aren’t using an RSS Reader, you don’t know what [...]
My brother Jacobo was wondering about Latin American members of the Knesset (Israeli Parliament). We knew of only one. So we looked it up. Being such a young country with a high level of immigration, a high percentage of the population was born in the Diaspora, so it’s only natural that it reflects in the [...]
One of the advantages of having my own blog and writing about whatever pleases me (and pretend like I know something about the subject at hand), is that you can let other people know what sort of things you like. Last June I wrote about chocolate. This January, Daniela Totah and Eva Noyola each brought [...]
My good pal Meir Sasson stopped by in town last weekend for some work related thing. We were co-madrichim in CYJ, summer of 1997. We were in Las Vegas in the summer of 1998 and in the beginning of 1999, while in Jerusalem, he introduced me to the wonderful world of Sachlav for which I’m [...]

I’m not stupid.
Been there, done that.
I’m a chicken (see this)!

Last Saturday, Luis, Lola, Gabriel and myself went to the appropriately named town of San Marcos, TX in order to jump off a plane at 11,000 feet of altitude.
Four brave souls.
Unfortunately, my car decided to break on our way there, so we had to give up and turn around… for the moment.
“El Tlacuache” did [...]
We’re trying to put together a Fantasy Football group using Medio Tiempo’s system. I’ve never seen it or used it. It will be a free, just for fun (i.e. bragging rights) ordeal. We need sign up by the league’s start on Friday night, I think. If you’re interested let me know ASAP.
Of course, we’re talking [...]
I had it all planned.
Then, George walks over to my desk. George and I have this interesting thing going on: I talk him into buying Apple stuff (rather successfully) and he talks me out of buying Apple stuff.
He explained to me why I shouldn’t get a MacBook Air. Unfortunately, he’s right in all accounts.
After a [...]
There’s a small chance that the effects of the Reality Distortion Field will subside just enough to steer me towards the cheaper, more featured and yet comparativey huge MacBook between now and the time when I can order it through Amazon… but it’s a safe assumption that the wait was worth it. Meet my new [...]
