Blonde Lotto and HO! Fred!



Thanks Funny!




The Blonde Lotto (Thanks "Coop" Coolpete)


A blonde finds herself in serious trouble. Her business has gone bust and she's in dire financial straits. She's so desperate that she decides to ask God for help.
She begins to pray... "God, please help me. I've lost my business and if I don't get some money, I'm going to lose my house as well. Please let me win the Lotto." Lotto night comes, and somebody else wins it.

She again prays... "God, please let me win the Lotto! I've lost my business, my house and I'm going to lose my car as well." Lotto night comes and she still has no luck.

Once again, she prays. "My God, why have you forsaken me? I've lost my business; my house, and my car, children are starving. I don't often ask you for help, and I have always been a good servant to you. PLEASE let me win the Lotto just this one time so I can get my life back in order."

Suddenly there is a blinding flash of light as the heavens open. The blonde is overwhelmed by the Voice of God Himself...
GOD says to her,
"Sweetheart, work with me on this one. Buy a ticket."

Eyal Golan


#3


Eyal Golan
From Wikipedia
Eyal Golan, אייל גולן (born April 12, 1971), is one of Israel's most energetic and popular singers. He is known as "The Melekh" or King due to his voice and good looks. He is known for his festive Eastern Mizrahi style and catchy tunes and lyrics.

A friend sent me this picture and a little more information about Eyal.

Eyal is married to Ilanit Levi, who was the beauty pageant Queen of Israel in 2001. Together they have a son called Liam.


In the words below each video, I chose my favorite lyric poetry that I found within each song.

Eyal Golan - MITGA'AGE'A (Yearning)
מתגעגע


I'm yearning
and I don't get where my heart is going
and I hover
I'm longing, it's not passing
you'll yet see I'll go cry because of you.


Mitga'age'a
velo mevin le'an halev sheli nose'a
umerachef
mitga'age'a zeh lo cholef
od tir'i she'eshtage'a biglalech.

מתגעגע
ולא מבין לאן הלב שלי נוסע
ומרחף
מתגעגע זה לא חולף
עוד תראי שאשתגע בגללך

Eyal Golan-MALKAT HAYOFI SHELI (My Beauty Queen)
אייל גולן מלכת היופי
This is a music video. It is very funny. In the end Eyal shows up to help the man in the video…


If you'll wait, I promise
I'll find the key to your heart
I'll pick a star from the sky
and tie it to your window.


Im techaki, ani mavti'ach
emtza mafte'ach lelibech
ektof kochav maharaki'a
ekshor oto lechalonech.

אם תחכי, אני מבטיח
אמצא מפתח לליבך
אקטוף כוכב מהרקיע
אקשור אותו לחלונך.

Eyal Golan -LIKNOT LACH YAHALOM (Buying you a Diamond)
אייל גולן מלכת היופי


I'm travelling but thinking of her,
the memories in the suitcase,
I'm not running away
and I know she's not staying alone.

If there's no bread, there's no love
I'm travelling to fix and set the future
how much time can be without work
the time doesn't help me.

I just have a dream to buy you a diamond
to see you once again smiling
Inside me is love, stay near
I know that you only love me
and I you.

Ani nosea aval choshev ale'a
hazich'ronot bamiz'vada
ani lo boreach va'ani yode'a
hi lo nisheret avooda

Im en leh'em en ahava
ani nosea lesader lanua atid
kama zman efshar lih'iot bli avoda
zman lo ozer li

Yesh li rak h'alom liknot lah' yahalom
lirot otah' od paam meh'ayeh'et
yesh bi ahava hishari krova
yodea she oti at rak ohevet
vegam ani ohev

אני נוסע אבל חושב עליה
הזכרונות במזוודה
אני לא בורח ואני יודע
היא לא נשארת אבודה

אם אין לחם אין אהבה
אני נוסע לסדר לנו עתיד
כמה זמן אפשר לחיות בלי עבודה
זמן לא עוזר לי

יש לי רק חלום לקנות לך יהלום
לראות אותך עוד פעם מחייכת
יש בי אהבה, הישארי קרובה
יודע שאותי את רק אוהבת
וגם אני אוהב.

HT goes out to George and his hard work at
Hebrew Songs
A great big Thank You!

One for the road:
This Video with Avihu Medina shows how powerful his voice is. You can tell he had a lot of fun performing with him.

Sunday February 4, 2007

Courage, it would seem, is nothing less than the power to overcome danger, misfortune, fear, injustice, while continuing to affirm inwardly that life with all its sorrows is good; that everything is meaningful even if in a sense beyond our understanding; and that there is always tomorrow. ~Dorothy Thompson

Friday Feast #129





What was one of the fashion fads when you were a teenager?

Long hair, hip huggers, and mood rings.





Name one thing you think people assume about you when they first meet you.

I don’t make assumptions. So I could not possibly assume what another person thinks when they meet me.




On a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being highest, how hard do you work?

I worked as a 10 most of my life. In the past two years I would have to say it fluctuates between a 1 and a 7 depending on the day.






If you were given a free 30-second commercial during the Super Bowl to sell anything you currently own, what would you advertise?

I don’t own anything of value to sell. I don’t watch television.
I would not benefit from selling the book on my sidebar.
I would advertise “Flying Lessons” so that more people could enrich their lives.







Fill in the blank: I love to ________ when it is _________.

I love to sleep when it is raining.
I love to walk on the beach when it is sunset.
I love to watch the sun when it is rising over the mountains.
I love to watch the moon when it is full.
I love to sit by the fire when it is cold.
I love to sail when it is windy.
