Karen has no special knowledge, but one of Nadine's endless stream of warbloggers does? From Nadine's site, yourish.com :
I'm a web developer who used to be a desktop publisher who used to be a typesetter who also used to freelance copy edit, proofread, edit, and write. I used to call myself a one-woman publishing company. Now I call myself Meryl Yourish, the owner/operator of yourish.com. I'm from New Jersey, and that fact doesn't make me blush. Never did. I like New Jersey. But it's getting too crowded. I made frequent trips south to visit a friend in the Richmond area, and moved there in the summer of 2002. It's much less crowded, but it needs more kosher butcher shops and Italian bakeries.
My views used to be liberal. I seem to be turning center/left, some say center/right. I am intolerant of intolerance, for the most part—if that isn't a contradication in terms. Sometimes I find myself being intolerant of things I should be tolerant of. I am only human; I try to stop doing it when I recognize it. (It's that unexamined life thing. See the first blog.) One thing I will never change: I am an avowed, unabashed, unashamed supporter of Israel and Zionism (the establishment and maintenance of a Jewish state) and an uncompromising foe of anti-Semitism. If you hate Israel and Jews, you're going to have an unpleasant time on my weblog. Buh-bye. |
