Shalom, phrizer
Your english is way much better than my hebrew but don't go through the trouble of translating your column just for me. I am trying to learn hebrew, mostly thanks to my great teacher, Blue Aura (toda raba!), but I'm still a big beginner. I can read about 25% of hebrew letters so it's a work in progress.
Hopefully, I will be able to speak basic hebrew in about a year.
