Member Needs/Offerings

DiGennaro, who are living in Jerusalem for 6 months, have asked us to
consider Meir Panim as a recipient of our tzedakah. Your donations are
tax-deductible, and this organization is doing good work.
House Sitter
Needed
Hi Friends,
We live on
Sugarloaf 10 miles west of Boulder. It is beautiful and
peaceful and quiet up here. We have 2 very friendly, smart dogs, and 3
well-behaved horses. The dogs need to be walked twice a day, and fed
dinner, with company over night. The horses need to be fed twice a day.
We need a house sitter for March 22nd through breakfast March 26th, and
for April 9th through dinner April 13th.
We will be happy to pay for someone to house sit and take care of our
loving animals who are very important to us.
If you are interested, or know of someone else who might be interested,
please call me at 303 442-6656 and leave a message if I am not home,
and I will call you back.
Thank y ou very much.

As
you may know, in a slalom race the skier must pass through about 20
gates in the fastest time. Well it happened that Israel had the fastest
slalom skier in the world and had great expectations for an Olympic
gold medal. Came the day of the final, the crowd waited in
anticipation. The French champion sped down the course in 38 seconds.
The Swiss in 38.7 seconds, the German in 37.8 seconds, the Italian in
38.1 seconds, and then came the turn of the Israeli... the crowd
waited, and waited... SIX MINUTES!!!
"What
happened to you?" screamed his trainer when the Israeli finally
arrived. Replied the exhausted Israeli: "Who fixed a mezuzah to each
gate?"
