Read about Manacci's double mitzvah in the middle of his rather heroic life if you want to be reminded of how little we've done with our own lives. I'm not sure if this is enough to get him invited to the State of the Union, but he's scoring high in the Less United States of Kudera, which happens to be blogging live from a Starbucks close to the fiefdom of Manacci, Ohio on this calm new year.
And around the world, alas, some folks are not so keen to celebrate. What else is ever new?
Shana Tova, Manacci! Shana Tova, the miserable and wretched around the world, and Shana Tova, the rest of us.
Peace.
