That Jewish Robot dude sure knows how to make me laugh while my stomach is in knots.

I always get like this during the black days in between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur – all my sins of the year seem to collect around my head like a nasty storm cloud, and ten days of repentance doesn’t seem like enough.

Fortunately, I have our country’s economic train wreck to distract me from my self-loathing, and tonight’s debate between Joe “Insert Foot Here” Biden and Sarah “I Read ALL The Newspapers, ALL OF THEM” Palin should be good for a few moments of relief.

Hat tip to El Yenta Man, who I hope is online, planning a fabulous vacation for our 10th anniversary next week.
