Sometime I'll have to upload one 78 I have. All Yiddish,

Side A isאַ גרוס פון דעם נייעם רוסלאַנד

Side B די גאָלדענע כלה

Yes, there is a transliteration, but the main title is Yiddish in Hebrew letters.

Side B is "The Golden Bride"

A is a vastly optimistic "A Greeting from the New Russia". Didn't realize it would be no better than the old Russia.

(Take the translations with a pillar of salt; they are from Google Translate)

Jamaica has made some great music.  It’s too bad the country is so screwed up.

So, silly discussion question for Friday night. Extraterrestrials appear in your home, and tell you that they’re going to teleport you to another planet in exactly 2 hours, in order to represent humanity. They tell you nothing else about this mission or the destination planet except that you will be away for five earth days and then returned, also by teleportation.  They say you can bring with you whatever you can carry on your person including in a backpack; if you try to contact anyone else for help you will be teleported immediately just with what you have on you. You cannot bring any pack animals, robots, vehicles, or anything of that nature. Only what you can carry. Again, you have two hours to gather whatever supplies you want to bring, whether from your own home or what you can find that quickly in your area.

Assume you take what they are saying at face value. What would you pack?

I had a call from my sister that was interrupted by a call from my husband.  He's seeing things that aren't there, a rat, some dogs and cats and some people that he doesn't  know.  He just sees these figure for a second or two before they're gone.  He's kind of sad that none of the women are naked and most of them are wearing "housecoats" LOL  This is something we'll need to share with his neuro doc.  I'd better call my sis back, sorry.

I'd better not forget my "housecoat".

I'm sad that I put a negative spin on the thread.
