Let’s see, I promised you Tel Aviv. Everyone was eating out today. When we went into a tiny restaurant on Lillienblum named Assif, there were some good friends – friends with good taste I might add – with the family – babies and all. We got a table in the opposite corner of the ‘balcony’ and were seperated by a table of five people with four dogs. The five of us ordered completely different things – I was still into breakfast and everyone else was into lunch. But it was all interesting, and very cool. We watched a photo session across the street, a few dialogues between cats and enthusiastic people, and many interesting diners.
Now I hope we’re finally going to see Waltz with Bashir. We may be the last people in Tel Aviv to see it.
later that day
They were out of tickets – and we ran up and down the stairs at Dizengoff Center looking for books (there are at least 3 book stores there) and then DVDs and then coffee. It’s a confusing place, with many levels and few attractions.

I’ve finally started putting my readings online again. Of course it’s just the skeleton, but you might want to check out the readings link. here: Http://www.karenalkalay-gut.com/readings.html There will probably be some in the US late January.
The kassams are back up to their usual number – somewhere around 10 a day. Everyone says it is unacceptable but I kind of like Haim Rimon’s responses – forceful reactions to each kassam. Except the thought of the Gazans getting hurt stops me. How do you prevent one citizenry from getting hurt without hurting the other? I don’t see an option.
