the way this rabbi does Hineini

"Why not me? Why not me?" I needed to have tosay that

I was asleep for most of the morning service

but my dad (the curmudgeon one) said "that was a cracking good sermon; we should donate more"

oh that sounds very nice to have a sermon one feels that way about...

which is a) a damn high compliment from Worried About Money Man; 2) in contrast to last year at the local place where even he went "this guy, no"

there's a reason we are attending virtual services and not theirs
