    The series “Revival” should be broken up into three parts. Episodes 1 -7 are back to life with energy, excitement, great character development, and cinematographic magic. Episode 8 digs into the grave, with PC flying everywhere, and is buried in boredom and predictability.  The final two episodes bring the show back from the dead, though they still have some dragging moments. Overall, “Revival” is a great series that could have been so much better if the PC police hadn’t returned to try to bury it.

Episodes 1- 7  *****

Episode 8  *  and I’m being generous.

Episodes 9 -10  ***

I believe it’s time to change the regime in Iran from within, but that will require force from without. Here (below) is my concept.

(1) Protect a Kurdish Area in Iran that provides sanctuary to dissident voices and opposition fighters as a whole. This area can grow depending on conditions on the ground. This area will be protected by U.S. Air support and, where needed, military assistance. We, though, won’t be directly involved in fighting on the ground.

(2) Support opposition protests around Iran and eliminate any threats to their safety from the air.  Provide military assistance wherever Massad and the CIA can safely do so.

(3) Have “protected” training facilities outside Iran to support opposition forces that want to overthrow the government. The opposition will build and maintain these facilities, while U.S. forces will defend them.

Make your reservation like M-E for the stars next June 3-6 . Well not actually the stars but the closest I can get there without flying. That’s right I’m planning a trip to Cherry Hills, Pennsylvania one of the best places in the United States to see the Milky Way. June 3-6th is when many experts will be there as well so it will open up windows I’d never had seen before. I’m excited to visit a whole new universe with my feet still on the ground.  So if you’re truly interested in star gazing and expanding your mind this might be the place to be without having to ingest anything to get there.

FOOTNOTE-  I might move the date to mid September depending on conditions here on earth.

This might be the greatest eggs I’ve ever made. They were not only fluffy but full of flavor from the top of the plate till the last drop on my fork. Here’s the key ingredients please duplicate it because I hate to eat alone.

1- 3 Eggs

2. Teaspoon of Yogurt

3. A squeeze of Hellman’s Spicy Mayonnaise.

4. Slice of Pepper Jack Cheese

5.  Two Tablespoons of Milk

6. Hard Cheddar Cheese

7. Salt & Pepper

8. Slices of two Cherry Tomatoes.

FOOTNOTE- All the basic ingredients are put in a blender and then cooked on a skillet with the cheese and tomatoes added for the final touch.

I survived 3 weeks + in the plunge. It was something I don’t believe any therapist could withstand as they go for sessions in the cold but mine went on for many weeks. Here (below) was my technique. G-D willing this technique will continue to work as I know the plunge is still present in my life.

(1) I found the smallest of warm spots and held onto them a bit longer then in the past.

(2) Distraction were a key because even though I laid in it the cold wasn’t all that surrounded my other senses.

(3) Cold became a challenge not just a burden to conquer.

(4) Fairness isn’t what I focused on but the bigger picture outside the tub.

Today, more than ever, we all need a bit more “patience”.  In a world where instant gratification is literally at your fingertips, we should take the time to think about how long it truly takes to win. Joseph foreshadowed that Rome wasn’t built overnight and held onto a dream that began many, many moons ago.   He faced so many setbacks along the way that they only made him stronger as he moved toward his promised path. From slavery to imprisonment to being forgotten, his mind was built for that age, not the one we live in today. It’s ironic that in a time when we are “generally” living longer, we expect results much faster than people in the past, who walked less than half the distance we do. They might have accomplished less bold visions than we see today, but I bet we don’t have time to look at the whole drawing. We think we are so advanced, yet patience appears to be slipping away.  I’m speaking about my mirror as well. Thank G-D, Shabbos was created to slow us down and patiently find a path of peace, happiness, and patience.

Today, more than ever, we all need a bit more “patience”.  In a world where instant gratification is literally at your fingertips, we should take the time to think about how long it truly takes to win.  Years go by before one truly graduates from anything, while wars are not won overnight.  Many a setback or loss leads to a greater opportunity we couldn’t see if we hadn’t patiently walked through it. It’s ironic that in a time when we are “generally” living longer, we expect results much faster than people in the past, who walked less than half the distance we do. They might have accomplished less but appreciated it a whole lot more.  Patience, something we can all use a bit more of in our lives, expectations, and even in a song.

FOOTNOTE: Guns N Roses’ song “Patience” is over five minutes long; do you have the patience to hear it till the end?
