Post #150: Location, Location, Location.

If you listen for more than 30 seconds, your brain is made of stronger stuff than mine..


4) Something to clear the pallete... or is it? HA! I dare you! Maybe this one is worse than the other three put together?

The Best YouTube Video on Israel so far...

This video rocks, pure and simple. Well edited, great music, and it explores one of the most central political issues in modern Israeli life...



... Hummus. Found this one on the esential blog, The Hummus Blog, where the video was called "the best hummus video yet." It wasn't all that long ago I was getting my favorite hummous in those flimsy pink plastic bags. And that ridiculous face they make when they actually eat the stuff? That's how you know it is good. This video sums up the Israeli expereince in so many ways. Watch it twice...
