Life with Monkeys: Oren Lavie makes me happy

"None of the four wars in my lifetime came about because we were too strong. It's weakness that invites adventurous adversaries to make mistaken judgments. America is the most peaceful, least warlike nation in modern history. We are not the cause of all the ills of the world. We're a patient and generous people. But for the sake of our freedom and that of others, we cannot permit our reserve to be confused with a lack of resolve." Ronald Reagan (1984)

Oren Lavie makes me happy

I just finished hosting a couple of Israeli students at my home for a week. Among the many things I enjoyed about their visit was how they shared their favorite Israeli artists with me. I am now hooked on Oren Lavie; singer, song-writer, playwright, and theatre producer. This video was made using stop-action animation; they shot nearly 3,000 separate photos. I could watch it a hundred times. I think maybe I already have. Makes me happy.

I'm so sorry to read about your neighbor.
