That explains Europe
Just between you and me, Europe seems a little off lately, doesn't it, the last hundred years or so? The elevator doesn't quite go to the top floor anymore, if you get my drift. Now I'm not a doctor, but maybe Europe's self-lobotomization has something to do with it.

Kinda like Easter
Here's an article from the Philadelphia Daily News about the hectic preparations for Yom Kippur (starts tomorrow night) in a large Philly synagogue, Congregation Rodeph Shalom.
But "hectic" bordering on "frantic" may best describe the days leading up to Yom Kippur, which begins at sundown Friday.
"I haven't slept in weeks," Carol Perloff, communications director for Congregation Rodeph Shalom on North Broad Street, said this afternoon. "It's like a meeting of a small nation."
Sounds like the folks who prepare Holy Week & Easter liturgies.
