Shanah Tovah

Sunset today marks the start of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish new year. As you might know, my wife (Wife!

Gotta get used to saying that) is Jewish, and we’ll celebrate with the

traditional apples and honey as well as adding an Asian twist by having

noodles for dinner — the traditional Chinese New Year food symbolizing

long life.

Whether you say “happy new year” as “shana tovah!” or “manigong bagong taon!“, have a happy one, everybody!


This year’s Shabot 6000 comic on Rosh Hashanah is a Flash animation that plays off the tequila/tekiyah

pun. Alas, it’s nowhere nearly as good as last year’s comic, which

remains, in this humble gentile’s opinion, the best Rosh Hashanah comic

ever:

    L'Shana tovah to you and your wife. :-)
