Mickey Dees could soon be selling Kosher Cheeseburgers in Jerusalem.

Wow! The problems the literalists have with modern commerce.
And on another note, farewell Rabbi Mark Golub, founder of the Jewish Broadcasting Service. Out of boredom during Covid I started clicking through every channel on my cable service, starting with number one and going up to 1849 classical music. I stumbled onto 798, JBS. The 700 group on my cable services mostly nut-ball christian (my definition, your's may vary) but here at 798 was JBS. Beautiful singing in a language I could not understand. At one point an a Friday night the men were singing a welcome to the female spirit of Sabbath into the room (there were English sub-titles on the bottom of the screen) and I actually expected the camera to shift to the doors in the back of the room and see a female figure come in. Movies from Israel, music from small, very Jewish, clubs--some clearly for older people seeking nostalgia, some with young people fully modern and sounding like a high-school garage bands. But what kept me coming back were the many interviews, some live, some recorded, with Rabbi Golub talking to one other person. It was always interesting and I always learned something. I even became driven to discover why they were always asking for a contribution of $18. I leave that to the reader to pursue.
I miss you Rabbi Mark Golub already. I thank G-d for the modern technology that lets me continue to hear the First Lady of Song, and your interviews.
