I just want to do a public shout out to God for five major miracles: in our day and age he has given us back our holy land where we Jews never again will ever be wanderers, like the dung to dunghills, like the rat expelled and exterminated; in fact, we have such great respect from the nations who respect themselves; nevermind, the fact that God has made us into a mega super-power; and I want to thank-God for my home country America, a place in which we Jews, in a fact all people, are accepted unconditionally; where the only conditions as George Washington wrote something to the effect, is, "a loyal Citizen, and a good human being" and I want to thank God for the development of the internet which allows a little shnuk like me to be communicating on a daily basis with hundreds, if not thousands of people; and I want to thank God for the miracle of modern medicine; a century ago our life span was cut in half, and the half that we did have was often filled with pain and suffering; and finally I want to thank God that even though the world is such a big place, he chose for me the most wonderful family and amazing loving extended family, and dear friends
