Israel turns deserts into gardens, obstacles into breakthroughs, and innovation into hope. It’s not just survival—it’s wisdom, resilience, and heart. This is the Israel I’m proud to call home.

Tangential: My A-level physics teacher was Wing Commander "Cocky" Traynor (sp?). After one lesson in which he introduced thermocouples I asked him why — given that humans can't tolerate temperatures greater than about 160F — we didn't set tea kettles to switch off at, say, 180F and save a lot of energy.
He glared at me archly and growled, "It wouldn't taste the same."
Arrived in Svalbard yesterday. Worst flight of my life. My sinuses we're blocked, thought i would loose my hearing 🤪. Frantically read about it on NRK.no when waiting at Tromsø airport. It's odd how that works... 🫠😅
I’ve always kept a small screwdriver in my backpack. It often comes in handy—whether it’s to open up a hard drive, replace a remote control battery, or who knows what else. Experience (and a few mistakes) taught me it’s worth investing in a quality tool.
When my father-in-law saw it, he asked if he could borrow it for a few days. I happily agreed, but my wife warned me not to, worried it might get lost.
A few days later, just as she had predicted, my father-in-law asked if I had taken it back, because he couldn’t find it anymore. Gone. Never seen again.
Not long after, I bought a new one—this time, following my wife’s advice, I didn’t mention it to my father-in-law.
This morning, while I was out, I noticed the lens on my sunglasses had come loose and was about to fall off. I immediately pulled out my trusty screwdriver, tightened the lens, and made sure everything was secure.
I smiled to myself and quietly thought of my wife’s wise advice—and how, without a doubt, I should listen to her more often.

many of you enjoyed "Bertrand Russell’s Chicken". This is the 𝙨𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙙 𝙥𝙖𝙧𝙩 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙧𝙮. Russell’s parable of the chicken and Spencer Johnson’s Cheese story share a common lesson—life is unfair to those who don’t notice, deny and resist change. The cheese will move, and the farmer’s habits may change. The key to survival is not clinging to old realities but anticipating shifts and adapting quickly. Don’t take stability for granted—stay prepared, keep moving, and always look for new opportunities.

Learned today that you shouldn't worry or think about whether you would be happier doing or being with someone else. Ask yourself, am I happy now? If the answer is yes, keep going. If it's not, change. Don't expect that you will be happier by changing, but you're setting yourself up for more happiness.

Got reminded that my body is my only mobile suit and I should take care of it.
Nothing like a mediocre cappuccino first thing in the morning to remind you it's smarter to go a good coffeeshop and get a proper one or go the absolute opposite route and get something that has lots of sugar and vague connotations of coffee from Starbucks. Neither was an option this morning. So I ended up with a somewhat drinkable liquid containing caffeine that did the job from a station kiosk. I suppose there's a #lifelesson in there somewhere, but can't be bothered to find out which one.
#LifeLesson never rush making your pancakes. You'll truly regret it. :( #doughycenter
