Haveil Havalim # 140 is up and running and Life in Israel, who is this week's host, has got an incredible number of great links today. I also think I figured out he's from my generation (because he mentions having gone to Yeshiva with someone whom I know to be more or less my age). Anyway, no matter how old you are, make sure you check out HH # 140 here.

I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004. You can contact me at: IsraelMatzav at gmail dot com

actually I am a quarter generation down. "Dave" was (and still is) older than me. He was in kollel and I was in yeshiva. I used to go eat shabbos meals by him very often...
But you do know me..sort of.. I was by your daughters wedding when she married the guy from Chi.
Are you a former Chicagoan?
that's right... and my family and your mechutanim are very close friends. My dad went with Stu to Soldier Field for a Bears game a few weeks ago and they were by my parents last week for a shabbos meal...
and I know Rabbi Weiss your FIL, but only enough to say hello when I see him... I used to bump into him fairly often but have not now in a while.
It's a small world indeed....
