Idle Teen Idol

I know posts have been scarce as of late, but all my surplus brain power is currently occupied by things that I'd prefer not to squish into this web page. Maybe it'll change soon, but for now, posting will continue to be relatively light.

Around this time of year, when we traditionally read the portions of Exodus dealing with the construction of the Mishkan (Tabernacle), I'll often get a whole slew of e-mails from some elementary school kids whose teacher has directed them to my "Virtual Mikdash." This year, those e-mails came from a fourth-grade class in California. The best one:

   Dear Reuven,

I think your pictures are really neat.Even though I am a fan of Hillary Duff I am also a fan of you.Please email me back.
   Love,
Jenny

(I've omitted the sender's e-mail address, which made clear reference to the fact that she is in fact a Hilary Duff fan.)

I'm not quite sure what to make of that, but I think I may be getting my very own fan club!

Who's Hillary Duff?

Here's what I'm competing with, apparently. I don't look nearly as appealing in a tank top and short skirt, but I've got better biceps.

Don't be modest! You've become a sex symbol. No more boring meetings. Hollywood, here I come.

So... did you email her back? She asked so nicely.

I did, but the e-mail bounced back - she must have mistyped her address in the form. Maybe I'll try to get it from one of her classmates. (I responded to all of them, too.)

Actually, she's now changed it to something like "Reuvenweiserfan@hotmail.com" -- THAT'S why it didn't go through :-)
