• There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politicion will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment amoung members. It is a poison to the community. We apprciate compliance with the rules.

Today is Yom Kippur for the Jews (gmar hatima tova !) . Nobody works or drive a car here in Israel. The streets, roads or highways are totally empty of cars or trucks !

The silence overcomes the cities. The pious go to the synagogue, the others take their bikes and roam the streets :mixedsmi: ! Bands of kids and adults of all ages... It makes you wonder how would be urban life without cars, less miserable I guess.

The weather is delicious today sunny and warm, Just did a 3 hour ride from the northern suburbs of Tel Aviv to Jaffa and back with the wife. Hey, we keep in shape, not bad at 60 :jump:..

Oy! Today, I need to be Jewish! :d

A most Happy Yom Kipper dominque! Get on your bike and ride. :applause:

Unfortunately, I have to drive my youngest son to his dental specialist in Greensboro, North Carolina this morning.

We have the candles burning; the wife is on her Yom Kippur fast in remembrance of others.

Shalom
