Shul Bulletin vol. 2

• Remember my post from September 5th, 2005? Of course you do! Well, the infamous hobo I originally chronicled has resurfaced after the winter thaw. I spotted him in Queen's Park recently, and what you see above is him enjoying the April sun. Where will he show up next?
• Today, at the Bloor Cinema, I was blown away by the quality of the films screened at The Jewish Splice, a 3 hour session of short films by Jewish students. My favourite short shorts ("Who wears short shorts?") were courtesy of Tamara Winegust, and my favourite long form short film was directed by none other than Daniel Eskin. It is called The Salt Pillar. The script for the film was awarded the Manitoba Emerging Filmmaker Award. That consisted of $20,000 (CDN) which helped get the film produced. Congrats to Dan Abramson and Tamara for helping put together such a great event.
• Eskin's buddy Moe has posted his third blog entry from Japan. New pics too.
• Ben-Zi's birthday party sleepover was a lot of fun. There were a slew of people present, and in between gorging on junk food and watching Ghostbusters, we made a fire in the backyard, and saw a magic show.
• Want to see the latest video from former Blink 182 member Tom Delonge's new band, Angels and Airwaves? Well, it just so happens that my sister's blog has put it into rotation. Click here to witness "The Adventure". It's a blog worth exploring.
