Blog post from Omi:

Don't know where to write this on.  Anyway, I have board games, in case it rains, can also bring give-aways for prizes, could make Halloween costumes if we figure out what to use as materials, have an Israeli CD from Laurie with lots of familiar tunes on it, (and many not-so-known), we could do some Israeli ethnic dances as Sarah has led in the past, play sharades, no end of fun ideas. The usual songs or  poems will be the highlight of the party, to be printed to give to everyone.  Maybe I'll get other ideas in the next few days.
Today we went with the Cantor Center to an Indian Casino.  Tonight Hank is coming down with a cold.  In case I get it from him, I'll be done with it before you kids come and enjoy the bash.
Message for Sarah:  Eddie from the Cantor Center, died in his sleep, Sunday.  He was a nice guy to us, but tough on his employees, so they say.  There will be a Memorial Service tomorrow.
Have a great Holiday and "Gutes Anbeissen".  

 Love, Mom

Omi Awards ("The Omieees")


It is time to celebrate ourselves and our "Ominess", (as Colbert would say).

I announce the First Ever "Omi Awards", to acknowledge those who have done outstanding work, developed a lifestyle, made a contribution, or developed a habit which demonstrates values and qualities we associate with Omi.

So send me your nominations. Create a category, pick a person, and tell me why you think that person deserves the honor. Entries should be in English, mostly, although poetry or music are acceptable.

Nominations are limited to family and significant others. You may nominate your siblings, your parents, your child, your relations, or yourself, as I don't care.

Award winners will be announced during Omi Bash 2010.

The award appearance is still under consideration. Figurines made out of marzipan have a popular appeal (as they go well with a nice cup of coffee).

Entries due by October 15. Offer void where prohibited. Your mileage may vary.


GET STARTED ALREADY! These people are not going to nominate themselves (or they just might, hmmmmm......)

Don't post them here, instead, e-mail your nominations to: LJKAISER@COMCAST.NET.
