Caption This
August 19th, 2008 by Leora
Someone asked what it is like for my children to be featured in my blog. Well, my eldest son actually asked that I post the above photo. So you are welcome to add a caption for it in the comments.
I can’t resist. I want to add my own caption, which is, “Is this how some bloggers will attend the NBN blogger conference?” There is going to be a conference of bloggers this Wednesday in Jerusalem, and the dilemma for the anonymous bloggers is: aren’t we supposed to be anonymous?
I’m going to start linking to interesting posts related to this conference, as some American bloggers have already “set sail”:
- Robert Avrech aka Seraphic Secret, preflight
- Rabbi Gil Student at the El Al Gate
- FrumSatire in El Al Lounge
- Jameel on plane
- Baila picks out a ballgown (among other pursuits)
I showed my son the photo of your son and he suggested that the caption should be “I’m too sexy for this blog”.
No. I refuse.
Jameel: An early picture?
Too good to be true.
Nice that you son wanted to be in your blog. I can’t think of anything except what I said when I first saw it which was. “That’s different”…
Raizy, I like your son!
Evil Serial Killer, please change your username.
Jameel, are we related?
Ilana-Davita, you found an internet connection!
Michelle, “different” is a good description for some of my posts.
Oh..nice that you son wanted to participate..I can’t think of anything clever as a caption..
No. I refuse to change my name.
Evil Serial Killer, you might want to consider being consistent with the email address you use, so I don’t have to approve every comment you make. Your choice.
So which one did your son like best?
ID asked: So which one did your son like best?
Leora answers: No comment.
Hey that pic would make a great avatar!
did he draw the menorah and write Israel on that paddle?
I guess he’s trying to say that all that’s important to him is Israel, that it’s more important than his face?
It’s interesting that he would specifically ask you to put up such a picture, must be he had a message he was trying to relay.
Babysitter, ha! You are reading way too much into the picture. It is just a paddle from a popular Israeli beach game, and it was lying around at my in-laws. My son saw I was trying to photograph him, and he put up the paddle on his face to prevent the capture.
He was just being silly.
lol…and I was wondering.
that makes more sense. that’s what I would have thought happened.
