Observations

Edition One: Things I want to talk about here, but I dont want to get beaten up

Israelis have gotten a lot fatter since the last time I was here in 2000. Maybe it is just Tel Aviv, I don't know...but the obesity levels seem like they can't be that far behind Baton Rouge.

Israeli girls wear ugly spice girly shoes; styrofoam platform sandals in flourescent colors. To work.

It is really annoying when you are walking down a normal sidewalk and someone is trying to pass you and they are on a motorbike.

For some reason, and I noticed this the last time I was here, too, people seem to think that an electric wheelchair is an appropriate vehicle for the road!! Including the highway!! At least they seem to stay out of the left lane.
